A stay at this glorious Patagonia hotel introduces you to the beauty of Patagonia Austral National Park and Blue Patagonia UNSECO Biosphere Reserve, as the property supports the blossoming of these areas.
Bahia Bustamente Lodge was founded in the 1950s as a seaweed settlement, housing over 400 workers and families. This history resonates through the hotel’s traditional feel, as you are slept in these old houses, which have since been refurbished to keep you comfortable.

All this, paired with warm hospitality and comfortable rooms, is what makes Bahia Bustamente the perfect stay to crown your Patagonia vacation.
All of the cabins adorn a classic style and are especially bright and airy, accented by hand-crafted fabrics and wooden furnishings. The most luxurious option is the Superior Sea Cabins, which have 2 double rooms, an open living space and a large bathroom, alongside a gorgeous ocean-view terrace for your mornings spent sipping coffee.
If you wish for something more laid-back, the Standard Sea Cabins offer a more subtle décor and space, whilst five Steppe Cabins provide a cheaper stay without meals and activities included. Kitchenettes and patio barbecues make for an especially relaxed trip, perfecting your cosy evenings with intimate family meals.
Decorate your remarkable Patagonia itinerary with memorable experiences and time to wind down.
