Fodor's Expert Review Tierra Chiloé

Tranquility and absorbing views of verdant farmland and Chiloé coastline make this truly upscale home-away-from-home quite intimate, as does the reading room, fireplace lounge, and dining area in the main lodge. Native woods and traditional local crafts such as wools, basketry, and figurines round out the design. Guest rooms have inland sea views and interiors that continue the traditional-yet-luxurious style. At the restaurant, the chef's ever-changing menu makes inventive use of local ingredients. A spacious indoor-outdoor spa makes the experience here even more incredible. The hotel makes your trip as easy as possible, including guided excursions, from active (horseback rides, trekking, boating) to cultural (visits of villages, national parks, and UNESCO World Heritage sites). All-inclusive rates include meals and drinks and round-trip transport from Castro's airport.
