Reviewed May 8, 2026Lovely cabin in a most beautiful scenic setting, efficient wood burner kept us toasty , the outdoor hot tub in the rain was a fab experience
This was a place of calm, back to nature experience…if you want to switch off and reconnect with your self, this is the place to go to.
The 3km access Road was quite bumpy … but even that was part of the appeal of this wonderful experience

Reviewed Feb 13, 2026El lugar es especial, muy tranquilo y tiene una vista privilegiada al volcán y al lago Villarrica. Un segundo aspecto destacado es que la cabaña está dispuesta para apreciar de la mejor manera el paisaje y a su vez está muy bien equipada en su interior (buena ducha, buena cama, buen baño). La guinda de la torta de las instalaciones es la tinaja que la mantienen caliente permanentemente y, además, cuenta con una ducha al aire libre, con agua caliente, y también con vista al volcán y al lago.
Otro aspecto a destacar es que en el entorno de la parcela hay árboles nativos, huertos, animalitos domésticos que circulan libremente y que no afectan la estadía de los pasajeros.
Es de destacar que en cuanto a las comidas, el desayuno es bueno y se puede reservar cena, que fue lo que nosotros hicimos. Los anfitriones nos sorprendieron con platos originales y sabrosos.
Finalmente hay una piscina muy bien mantenida y que también tiene vistas al volcán y el lago.
Por último, se agradece la cordialidad y amabilidad de los anfitriones.

Alles in Ordnung
Hosts were super welcoming and helpful, the views spectacular and cats, dogs and hens delightful. Meals were some of the best we have had during three weeks in Chile. Beds comfortable, peaceful all around
Road to property not paved, so apart from shaken constantly, inhaling dust at great volume, even through air conditioning. Needed a better car! Punctures a possibility.

Reviewed Jan 25, 2026Steffi und Much sind außergewöhnlich herzliche und nette Gastgeber, bei denen wir uns superwohl gefühlt haben. Die Tips und Karten von Much haben uns an wunderschöne, tolle Orte geführt, die wir sonst nicht entdeckt hätten. Die Lage der Lodge ist einmalig, und die Sicht auf den Vulkan Villarrica unbezahlbar toll. Frühstück war klasse, gesund, und die gelegentlichen Abendessen wie bei Freunden. Falls Ihr das hier lest: Danke nochmals, Ihr seid toll, und wir denken oft an Euch und Euren Ort! C. + P.

Reviewed Jan 6, 2026La vista y el entorno te transportan a un lugar soñado, lleno de paz, naturaleza impresionante y calidez que entregan sus sueños. El volcán y el lago es lo primero que ves al despertar y al anochecer mientras tomas un baño en la tinaja.de. Tu cabaña. Está lo suficientemente alejada de la ciudad para promover descanso y relajación pero a 20 min de Villarrica y de todo el atractivo turístico de la zona.
La atención directa de sus dueños que te acogen como familia y te hacen sentir como en casa, pero respetando tus espacios de privacidad es la combinación perfecta : desayunos y cenas hechas en casa que nada tienen que envidiar a mejor restorán que hayas conocido y preparados con ingredientes de su propia huerta. Todo muy sano y delicioso.
Quiero agradecer también especialmente a Leo por su hermoso trabajo con las pulseras que el mismo diseña y hace según lo que le pidas..
Gracias Steffi y Magui. Nos veremos muy pronto!!!

Reviewed Oct 24, 2025The lodges were greatly done, they were stylish, eco friendly, comfortable and cozy. The facilities there including the hot tub, outdoor shower, etc made it all the more special! I also loved the set up close to the house so we could pop in if we needed anything which was never a bother!
Nothing at all - it was a great experience
Te reciben Much y Steffi, una pareja de alemanes, con mucha amabilidad y buena disposición. Tienen una tinaja y ofrecen cena casera. El desayuno está incluido y es muy rico. La cabaña cuenta con una estufa a pellet y una vista preciosa.
No sabíamos que la cena tenía costo. Es de 25000 pesos chilenos. La cabaña no logra mantenerse caliente (hacia mucho frío) cuando la estufa no estaba prendida. El agua de la ducha no sale muy caliente (con el frío esto hubiera sido más agradable de tener). Por la noche se escucharon ladridos.

Reviewed Jan 17, 2025Wonderful view, exceptionally helpful and friendly hosts with good English language. Much holiday-enhancing information and hand-drawn maps have proved invaluable. They provided a delicious home-cooked meal and wine on arrival and prepped our own hot tub located on terrace so had great views of stars and sunset. Rooms very comfortable with the additional bonus of Mt Villarricci in full view (weather-dependent) on opening curtains in morning.
Barking dogs. Quite an out-of-way location but this contributes to its charm.

Reviewed Mar 17, 2024A remote place to switch off or to relax after visiting the sights in the surrounding area (of which there are many). The owner Michael and Stefanie escaped crowded Europe and created their own little paradise in perfect peace in nature, to share it with their visitors, who have their privacy but feel like visiting old friends in their home. Their welcoming hospitality goes from heartily prepared breakfasts and - in case you choose for - delicious dinners with healthy ingredients from their garden over millions of tips and advises for discovering the area and to preparing the hot tub for your return in the evening. They pay attention to every little detail in order to give you the perfect holiday experience.
We will certainly remember the days at them as one of the most beautiful hosting experiences and never forget the perfect peace and quiet while sitting in the hot tub in the evenings under the Milky Way with the red glowing top of volcano Villarrica.
Vielen Dank, lieber Much und liebe Steffi!

They were kind enough to even research and execute exquisite vegan dishes for my girlfriend. Their attention to detail paired with their incredible conversation and company made this trip an unforgettable one. I cannot recommend this place enough. It exceeded all expectations and left us wanting to stay at Karibuni lodge forever. We even extended our stay there simply because we couldn't get enough of this heavenly part of Chile. I will definitely come back one day, and hope everyone gets a chance to experience this magical place.

Volcano glowing at night with the stars and hot tub was always a wonderful end to the day. Best view in the area.
You will need a car to get there, it’s on a dirt road. Not an issue in Chile

Reviewed Dec 20, 2019Karibuni surpassed our expectations considerably! Expecting basic cabins, we were chuffed to discover a spacious suite in the guise of a cabin. The view from the picture window is a perfect symbol of the tranquility and beauty of the lodging.
If you wish to spend your time watching movies or in Pucon town centre day after day, then this isn't the right accommodation for you. If you wish to relax in serenity, read, explore, walk and enjoy private access to the lake and utter peace, then this is very much the place for you!
My Husband climbed the local volcano and was delighted to relax in our private hot tub that same evening.
We were inspired by the owners who moved from Europe to set up a 3 cabin place in Chile along with organic kitchen garden. Due to the deliberate low occupancy, there is a personalised approach to serving breakfast and, if you chose it, dinner using fresh ingredients and made with love. Our best evenings in the Lake District were spent with our warm, intelligent and interesting hosts and fellow guests. Typically, we are not very sociable on holiday but joining on certain nights felt natural.
This is a special place with a great story and incredible views!
