Espejo de Luna

Chiloé


A massive sideways ship forms the reception and restaurant at this extremely cozy eco-getaway, 7km from Queiién. A few bungalows of various shapes and sizes are spread across 3 hectares, connected by wooden walkways wrapped in recycled fishing nets for grip.

Each has a Mapudungun name, such as 'the wisemen', 'the family' and the lovers' etc. Those seeking romance and solitude could tuck themselves away in the latter for a week without coming up for air, except to visit the supremely private outdoor hot tub, hidden away in an arrayán (Chilean myrtle) forest.
