On the shores of Lake Llanquihue, facing the Osorno Volcano, Hotel AWA rises as a bold architectural statement in the heart of Chilean Patagonia. Just twenty minutes from Puerto Varas, within the preserved surroundings of Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park, the hotel maintains a constant dialogue with the elements: water, light, sky and landscape. Its refined Brutalist design anchors concrete and glass into the scenery, offering panoramic views of the lake and volcanoes from every space. The 25 rooms and suites, along with a private villa, open onto expansive floor- to-ceiling windows. Wood-burning fireplaces, king-size beds, natural materials and deep bathtubs create contemporary comfort rooted in nature. AWA Spa enhances the experience with its glass-walled semi- Olympic pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and holistic treatments. The essence of the property is captured in its name: AWA, meaning “water” — a vital presence shaping both the architecture and the spirit of the hotel. Best gastronomy: AWA’s culinary philosophy is grounded in sustainability and seasonality. Drawing from the hotel’s organic garden, the kitchen highlights local producers and the natural richness of the Lakes District. Under the guidance of the chef, contemporary techniques meet Germanic and Creole cultural influences that define southern Chile. Each dish expresses this dialogue between heritage and modernity, offering an authentic gastronomic experience deeply connected to its landscape.
