What an amazing compound, with multiple cabins, some with private wood-fired hot tubs, all with fantastic views. Everyone of the staff were open and welcoming, from the owners, the concierge, the tour guides, chef & kitchen staff housekeeper, grounds keeper, helicopter pilot (yes, helicopter) to the three amazing dogs. Some of the most amazing food we've had - ever!!!

Our stay at this charming lodge was the highlight of our three week tour of Chile. The location is remote and private, nestled onto the banks of the Tagua Tagua river. The lodge itself is intimate, cosy and incredibly charming. Our room had a stunning view of the river and we could hardly pry ourselves away for the fabulous excursions. Among our favorites were the Tagua Tagua hike (a challenging 9 miles) and the horseback riding. Everything here is top-notch from the food to the guides. Even the owners dogs added to our incredible experience at Barraco. You will not want to leave this majestical place!

As we boated into the Barroco lodge I felt like we were living that scene in Marry Poppins where they jump into a sidewalk drawing. It’s so beautiful that you feel like you’re living in a picture. Surrounded by verdant hills and crisp blue water, the amphitheater of nature surrounds you completely, and you have no other option than to be absorbed by tranquility.

The owners, Jamie and Marcella, are ripped straight from a Ralph Lauren ad: the charming helicopter pilot and the beautiful volleyball star, who have carved out a civilized life - far from civilization. The rugged opulence infuses everything at Barraco, from the gourmet meals cooked over an open fire (thanks Obed!), to the expert adventure guides (thanks Thomas!), to the hospitality of the kitchen staff.

Jamie told me that their goal was to show people how they live, not to conjure an experience for tourists. They’ve achieved this with humility, grace, and hard work. If you ever get a chance to join their family - even for a few days - it’s an experience you’ll never forget.

One of the best experiences ever! Barraco adventure starts with the helicopter in and it just keeps getting better. Our team felt more like a family and they could not do enough for us. We had family dinners and great adventures together. The wood burning hot tub was a nightly event. Our room was rustic and cozy and I never slept better. Can't wait to get back someday.

We stayed here for four nights in January 2023 and honestly didn’t want to leave. Our room was gorgeous with enormous windows, a seriously comfortable bed and a wood burning stove for those chilly evenings. Every member of staff without exception was friendly and went out of their way to ensure our stay was the best it could be. The food is amazing, healthy and extremely tasty - from the barbecued whole lamb to tuna steaks grilled on a fire in the woods in the drizzle! We enjoyed all the activities we tried, only sad that we didn’t catch many fish. The lodge’s dog Gaucho is a real character and insisted on coming on our cataraft for our fishing trip which made for an interesting day. It’s not cheap, but I promise you, Barraco Lodge is worth every penny!

It's difficult to explain this incredible place. The insanely stunning location, the access to amazing adventures, the fabulous lodge and rooms are all a big part of it, but it's the team that really bring it to life. Every one of them is special and make you feel at home.

Enjoyed four amazing nights at the lodge with Hymie and his staff. Everyone was super friendly and made us feel like we were at home.
We did a short but adventurous Trek (specially if you like clambering over wet boulders ) horse riding to a local farm house (where we were treated to a fabulous local lunch and shown around the farm) and fishing on the lake. BBQ lunch was fab!
The chalet style rooms all have wood burning stove‘s which are kept lit for you whilst you’re out. Wood fired hot tubs are available when you get back from your days activities.
The food was excellent and we even enjoyed a barbecue one evening (in a covered outdoor area ) with unbelievable views!
Definitely recommended!

Everything about Barraco lodge is OUTSTANDING - it is remarkably beautiful, situated on a turquoise lake with wood-fired hot tubs, a sauna, and super cosy decor. It's all the best food you'll have in Chile, with full time on-site chefs cooking you food you'll be dreaming about for years after!
The entire staff treats you like family, and is quick to organize fly fishing, heli trips, kayaking, hiking, massages
We were incredibly sad to leave, and can't wait to go back.

I spent 3 nights with my girlfriend at Barraco. It was an amazing experience. The views are outstanding and the houses are cozy and feel like a home. The staff is friendly and personable. They all speak English. Jaime, the owner is a fun character: outgoing and full of stories.

Every day at Barraco is an adventure. You can go fishing, hiking, flying, or cycling around one of the most gorgeous parts of Patagonia.

If you need a place to adventure outdoors, Barraco is your best bet.

Located by Lake Tagua Tagua the lodge provides many adventures: fishing, hiking and horse back riding. The rooms have a amazing view of the lake. After a long day you can rest in a hot tub that has also an gorgeous view of the lake.
The staff is extremely friendly and they go out of their way to please their guests.
Food is delicious! The chef Maite prepares typical dishes that please all the guests.
If you are looking for an adventure you should spend some days in Barraco
