Why we like this hotel
- At over 100 years old, it takes you back in time as you imagine how gaucho life was in this remote part of the world before Torres del Paine was on the traveller's map.
- You get the chance to have a more authentic experience by staying in houses that were formerly those of the estancia workers and witnessing gaucho skills such as sheep shearing and horseback riding.
- It's an extremely comfortable place to stay while visiting Torres del Paine and the surrounding areas, with easy access to the eastern side of the park.
- The food is superb with three-course meals using organic produce from the estancia's allotments, delicious lamb cooked in the traditional style 'al palo', and some of the finest of Chile's wines being served.
- Pick from a wide range of excursions that allow you to explore the lesser-visited places surrounding Torres del Paine National Park like the Baguales mountain range on the Argentinian border and also use it as a base for the most iconic places in the park.
We think it's worth noting
- You have to travel along a bumpy gravel road to and from the estancia.

Swoop says
I love this place - it's up there with all the high-end luxury lodges but offers so much more variety. It has something for everyone and much better suited for families of all ages. There's a focus on conservation and the history of the estancia is absorbing. They even have projects that are working with both the estancia and puma/condor conservation - akin to those used on the wildlife conservancies in Kenya.
