Awasi Patagonia

Twelve private villas β€” each with its own guide and vehicle β€” in a reserve adjoining Torres del Paine

πŸ“ Torres del Paine, Chile Private reserve adjacent to Torres del Paine National Park, Chile

About Awasi Patagonia

Awasi Patagonia operates on a concept that transforms the entire meaning of a lodge visit: each of the 12 villas comes with its own dedicated guide and 4x4 vehicle. Your guide gets to know you, your interests, and your physical capabilities β€” and each day's itinerary is built entirely around what you want to see and do. For puma tracking, this approach dramatically increases success rates. For photographers, it means golden-hour positioning at locations that group tours never reach. For couples, it means a Patagonia that feels completely personal.

Hotel Highlights

  • Personal guide and 4x4 for every villa β€” completely bespoke days
  • Highest puma tracking success rate in Patagonia
  • The finest restaurant in Torres del Paine
  • Access to private reserve with wildlife unreachable by tour groups
  • All-inclusive: meals, drinks, excursions, and park entry
  • Only 12 villas β€” genuinely intimate and personal

Before You Book

πŸ†
Puma Tracking

Torres del Paine has one of the world's most accessible puma populations. Awasi's dedicated puma guides work the territory around the private reserve daily β€” success rates of 85%+ are achieved through knowledge of individual animals' territories.

🌬️
Wind

Patagonian wind is severe β€” gusts regularly exceed 100 km/h. The villas are engineered for this. All excursions are planned around wind windows. Bring extreme windproof outerwear.

πŸ“…
Seasons

Open October–May (trekking season). For puma tracking, the best months are May and August. For the best trek conditions, November–February. The lodge can advise based on your priorities.

πŸ’°
All-Inclusive Value

At $1,000–1,200/night all-inclusive (including a dedicated vehicle and guide), Awasi actually compares well to alternatives when all costs are calculated. Group tours, park fees, and meals at comparable quality would approach similar totals.

Tips from Our Team

Tell your guide everything about your wildlife priorities on arrival β€” they will restructure the week's programme around your interests.
Puma tracking works best in May–August (austral winter) when pumas are more active and the grassland cover is lower. Ask about the winter programme.
The private dinner on the steppe at sunset is Awasi's most memorable experience β€” arrange it for your second or third night.
Most guests stay 4–7 nights. Fewer than 3 nights doesn't give the guide relationship time to develop fully.
