Petrohué Lodge

The Lakes District


In a gorgeous stone and wood-gabled building replete with a tower, this high-end adventure lodge deserves a visit. Its abundant skylights and the roaring fires in the lounge make it a romantic place to relax, read a book or cuddle up. The rooms, rich in wood, have beds piled high with blankets and are scattered with candles.

The restaurant is open to the general public and the adventure outfitter here arranges climbing, rafting and canyoning excursions and has kayaks for rent. The equally luxe cabañas sit on the lakeshore.
