Tierra Patagonia
HotelSouth America, Chile
From $1,770
Tierra Patagonia stretches almost horizontally along the shore of Lake Sarmiento, with the Torres del Paine massif filling the horizon beyond it. The architecture follows the natural curve of the land and uses local lenga wood extensively, allowing a 40-room hotel to remain surprisingly discreet within such a monumental landscape. Days revolve around guided hikes, horseback riding and excursions across Patagonia, followed by long views of the mountains from almost everywhere inside.
Explora Rapa Nui
HotelSouth America, Chile
From $1,850
Explora Rapa Nui sits alone among the island’s open grasslands, far from Hanga Roa and surrounded by one of the most mysterious archaeological landscapes on Earth. Designed by Chilean architect José Cruz Ovalle, the low-slung lodge follows the contours of the volcanic terrain, with 30 rooms overlooking the Pacific or gardens. The real reason to stay is access: guided hikes, cycling and coastal explorations lead to moai, ancient settlements and volcanic sites while introducing Rapa Nui through its history, landscape and living culture.
Awasi Patagonia
HotelSouth America, Chile
From $1,793
Awasi Patagonia has only 14 freestanding villas, each positioned for privacy and direct views towards Torres del Paine and Lake Sarmiento. Set within a private reserve, the lodge is surrounded by native forest and open Patagonian terrain where guanacos, condors, foxes and occasionally pumas can be spotted. Every villa comes with a private guide and 4x4, allowing the experience to be planned around each guest rather than a fixed excursion schedule.
