PROPERTY DETAILS

ROOM DETAILS

PALENA

Palena, situated on the second floor, is the crown jewel of Rio Palena Lodge. The only room with a living room, spacious private balcony, TV, and wet bar with snacks, Palena is an exquisitely appointed king ensuite with a steam shower and breathtaking views from a series of projecting windows, including ones framing the double sink vanity. Remote-controlled shades, extensive closets, and a fold-out couch offer an abundance of conveniences, while hard-wood ceilings and Chilean-made textiles create a quintessential Patagonian ambiance.

AZUL

Azul’s river views are arguably the most idyllic. Located on the first floor, this king suite with a bathtub and steam shower receives an excellent amount of natural light that illuminates the culturally forward room design with a touch of the outdoors. Its personal balcony, largescale ensuite bathroom with a double sink, and insulation from any exterior noise makes it a truly serene hideout that envelops guests in Chile’s signature style.

ROSSELOT

Rosselot’s angulated wooden ceiling, leather couch, and confident splashes of color make it a unique reprieve. A tailor-made headboard fashioned from Chilean rugs frames the king bed, while local cement tiles line the ensuite bathroom and steam shower. A comfortable sitting area is the perfect place to relax and take in the captivating river views from this second-floor suite. As is custom at Rio Palena Lodge, Rosselot’s decor is heavily influenced by indigenous Chilean crafts. TIGRE

Tigre’s versatile layout can be configured with one king bed or two twin beds to accommodate guest preferences. Vivid red hues add an unmistakable exuberance to the room, while white-washed walls are nuanced by heavy wooden ceiling structures. Its location on the second floor gives guests impeccable river views, and an en suite bathroom with the same red flair ties Tigre together in both form and function.

TRANQUILO

Tranquilo, capable of accommodating two twin beds or one king bed, features an en suite bathroom and river views from its second-floor position. Reclining in Tranquilo’s bed gives you a particular downriver vantage point, a coveted view of guests at Rio Palena Lodge. Navy textile accents and a medley of creative patterns accompany a beautifully crafted headboard representative of the region’s native motifs.

MORO

Moro features a richly layered queen bed and en suite bathroom. Located on the first floor, the windows open up to views of the beautiful Palena River. Along with locally sourced art, regional decor steeped in character gives guests an uninterrupted experience of Chile. Understated elements of elegance touch the room’s traditional yet artistic design, and promise a well-deserved respite after a day spent exploring Patagonia’s wild landscapes.

CORRENTOSO

Correntoso offers immaculate garden views from the first floor, and features a queen bed and en suite bathroom with traditionally inspired cement tiles. Its bold yellow headboard, which was locally made and dyed with seasonal vegetables, is a defining factor of this room’s aesthetic. Correntoso’s intimate space provides an inviting hideaway that welcomes guests for a delightful rest following an unforgettable day.

A DAY IN THE LIFE RELAX AND ENJOY

Set in a pristine Andean valley on the banks of the magnificent Rio Palena, Rio Palena Lodge is your ultimate Patagonian angling retreat. This region is renowned for large, wild brown and rainbow trout and is highlighted by the homewaters of the Palena, where anglers can wade or float right out the front door. When you’re not exploring, relax at our state-of-the-art lodge. Kick-back on the deck overlooking the tranquil river while sipping a fine Chilean wine or Pisco Sour. Or unwind with a soak or steam in the woodfired hot tubs and sauna. For dinner? Enjoy artistic presentations of fine beef, homemade pastas, grilled salmon, and locally grown produce in the cozy dining room, or indulgein a special Patagonian Asado, a traditional barbecue paired with fine wines that only the Gauchos couldprepare. 7
