El balcón te regala a toda hora postales únicas. El palafito tiene todo para una estadía perfecta: cocina equipada, calefacción q se regula de acuerdo a tu gusto, living con balcón amplios y con vista divina (te visitan gaviotas, Martín pescador, garzas, etc) la cama súper confortable. No hay forma que no la pases increíble. La ubicación es muy buena. Excelente comunicación con la anfitriona. Lo recomiendo 100%
Fantastic view Lovely large apartment with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and balcony Great restaurant just a few doors down - serving the best food we’d had anywhere in Chile Corner shop very close

L’emplacement, le confort , la tranquillité
La ubicación y el lugar muy bien pensado, todo perfecto.
La ubicación, con unas vistas increíbles, el equipamiento tiene todo lo que necesitas y más también, se puede recorrer caminando los lugares turísticos y restaurantes, cafés, etc. Hermosa estadía!!!!! La terraza increíble! El amanecer y el atardecer y las aves.
El lugar y la ubicación era increíble. Estaba demasiado limpio todo, fue algo que realmente remarcó porque fue muy agradable y volvería sin dudarlo. Pasamos una estadía increíble con las vistas qué tiene el lugar con mi madré y hermana. Lo recomiendo completamente.
Nada todo impecable 👌
Las instalaciones muy hermosas y cómodas

Impecable! Super recomendable!!
Tuve una excelente estadía en el apartamento. Todo estaba muy limpio y ordenado. Además, agradezco mucho que me permitieran hacer el check-in a las 12 pm. Totalmente recomendable
El depto es re cálido, camas estupendas , buen baño y viviana siempre pendiente y dando buenos datos para una mejor estadía.

El complemento de todas las comodidades que tiene buena ubicación, todo limpio,buena calefacción. 10 de 10
Comfortable bed and bathroom, nicely decorated. We booked a loft without terrace at the Street side. I am certain the ones with terrace are much nicer and also more quiet. Great restaurant in the Same Street, 2 minute walk.
I did not like Castro as it's very noisy with constant traffic. There are much nicer rural areas on the island. But the loft was great!
Me encanto la vista, buena ubicación, barrio tranquilo…muy cómodo
La ducha porque es difícil ingresar, sobretodo para la gente mayor
Das Appartement ist komplett ausgestattet und sehr komfortabel. Die netten Besitzer des unten angesiedelten Restaurants Venecia (tolle Familie) bieten ein hervorragendes Frühstück auf s Zimmer.
Die Parksituation ist schwierig. Leider gibt es keine Möglichkeit draußen am Meer zu sitzen.
Very comfortable interior.
The noise travels between units and the on site restaurant.
La ubicación, la vista, la comodidad de la cama
El tragaluz de la habitación y el ruido del gym al lado
La ubicación es perfecta y la vista que tiene , además en un espacio que contiene todo lo necesario para que tu estadía sea cómodo. Además debo destacar la atención de Viviana, ella siempre preocupada de enviarte datos y hace que tu estadía sea de lujo. Además nos permitió hacer check out más tarde y eso siempre se agradece mucho
Todo es perfecto!
A very nice place as it is an actual palafite house overlooking the bay.
I didn't have any problems.
Staying in the palafitos was amazing- we had a balcony with amazing views, the apartment was lovely. Cooking facilities were good. A unique place to stay. Gym nearby does play music but this didn’t bother us too much. Negatives- on the expensive side- they charged us tax which is usually for residents and not visitors from abroad. I did query this but was told it was because it was an apartment and not a hotel? We decided to pay anyway as it was only 2 nights in a great location but would appreciate more transparency about this.
Traditional residential area of Castro and restaurant Venicia underneath is great.
Would have loved a sea view room. Weren’t given the option on booking and assume alll rooms had sea views.
Our family had an incredible stay in the Palafito. The views of the bay were breathtaking, and the peace and quiet were absolute. The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed. We especially appreciated well-equipped kitchen and the comfortable beds. It was a magical way to celebrate the New Year!
To improve waste management, I recommend implementing separate bins for recycling (plastic, glass, paper, etc.). This would make it easier for guests to recycle and reduce the hotel's environmental footprint.
It was as advertised staff was fantastic. Great gym next door
Nice view.
Loud, you can hear everything going on. Shower difficult to enter.
The location is just amazing, the landscape breathtaking really. Everything inside of the apartment looks brand new and clean. Viviana vicuña, the administrator is a lovely and very friendly person, ready help us at anytime, even she gave us a taxi driver recommendation And everything went just great. Nice palafito experience
The rooms didn’t have proper windows, that was a shame. And the place was expensive enough-from my perspective- to have a washing machine. But I guess it’s a matter of space. Small but cosy anyway. The shower a bit uncomfortable.
Fabulous place and super amazing staff. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable. 100% recommended.
This place is such a vibe - cozy, yet super spacious and comfortable. One of our favorite places we stayed at in Chile. The sea view deck was such a nice place to sip on a beer and relax. Close to yummy restaurants too!
La arquitectura
my only quibble with this porperty was key handover. It was tricky toorganise and we ended up ahving to wait quite a long time for the lady to arrive to hand over the keys.
there's a gym close by so teh music from it interferes with the lovely tranquil spot this property enjoys. Otherwise everything else is idyllic
The apartment is spacious, centrally heated (HUGE advantage in the cool weather we had), well and tastefully equipped. I especially appreciated the damask sheets in the bed. It is a 10-minute walk to the town center. We had views towards the road (no sea view), but there was no noise from the street.
The infomails we received sounded a bit strict (a lot of rules, dos and don'ts), but in the end the staff was really friendly. A bit difficult to reach, though - the opening hours of the reception desk are limited.
The view from our deck, the comfort of the bed, and a good heating system.
A little bit noisy inside the complex.
This is such a beautiful place located in the most exquisite zone of Chiloé. The staff were all so very friendly and eager to share their best insider’s information on places to visit and to eat.
Nothing. Everything was superb. I was so happy to stay here, especially because we had so many rainy days and the rentals had ran out of cars!
location
The host was so kind and helpful, she helped us figure out what to see and how to spend our time and went above and beyond in ensuring all our needs were met. The property was gorgeous and everything was just as pictured on booking.
amazing place!! Big, clean, beatiful appartment with a fantastic view. our host Viviana was great and very helpful. we’ll come back :-)
The Apartment was well-equipped and in a great location. It was a good size for a couple and very comfortable. We would definitely recommend it highly. We were given very good tips on restaurants by our hosts who were very responsive.
There was no window that could be opened in the bedroom (just a skylight window with no way to reach it in order to open it) so it was very hot. The room was equipped with a fan which we used to good effect so this is a minor issue. It would have been nice to have some cloths in the kitchen for cleaning dishes more effectively but again, this is a very minor issue.
Very comfortable rooms and very friendly staff.
There wasn’t so much light in the back of the apartment. The town (Castro) is not nice and gives you a sensation of insecurity. Houses, streets and building are not well preserved, and it’s dirty everywhere. In general, if you go to Castro you should rent a car to visit the island, which is very beautiful. In Castro itself there isn’t so much to do and it’s not nice.
Muy buen lugar
The apartment itself is quite lovely. The view is very nice and reasonably located near restaurants. Parking is on the street. The major issue with this hotel is noise. It is adjacent to a gym that plays loud music with a heavy bass from 7 am to 11 pm. Waking up to this on vacation is unavoidable. There is no escaping it. Between 11 am to 9 pm the gym music is drowned out by the loud music from the attached ceviche restaurant just down the hall from the apartment. All of this led to a less relaxing stay such that we didn’t want to spend a lot of time in the apartment. It is unfortunate location but as such the high price is not justified.
Excelente estadía y recepción !!!
Good location close to town but quiet (walking to central Castro does require a steep uphill walk but it is short). Staff were incredibly helpful organising laundry for us (the apartment does not have a machine).
Excelente lugar bien ubicado en zona segura, con instalaciones de lujo, cómodas y limpias. Además una atención cordial y muy atenta. Cuenta con un pequeño pero muy buen restaurant. Totalmente recomendable.
Excelente hotel y bello entorno. Al lado hay un gimnasio que pone música muy fuerte hasta las 10pm lo que hace poco grato estar en la terraza
Beautiful, refurbished palafito with tremendous views of the water and countryside. Well-furnished and cozy, a great, romantic place to stay while on Chiloe.
Delightful apartment with timber walls and floor, tastefully decorated, well equipped.
Completamente recomendable muy lindo el lugar comodo Excelente
The location was good. The Palafito was nice, clean with a very nice decor. Street parking was no problem for those with a vehicle. They had a good kitchen with a full size fridge and freezer. We had a unit with a bedroom and a common area pull-out couch. The pull out coach was exposed to a chandelier light that we could not figure out how to turn off as it flooded the living room with light. If that issue is fixed I would suggest this place to any traveler.
Wonderful area to visit . Terrific location and comfortable unit.
Palafito means house on stilts over the water. This is a lovely one. You can walk to several restaurants on the same level. Going into center of Castro entails a very, very steep walk or use a taxi. This apartment was very well equipped and lovely. See if you can get water view but street view ok. Main problem is that owner, manager is only present at certain hours..she speaks only limited English...is pleasant enough but if she is not present, no one is there to assist you. I would still recommend this place
The apartment is in a good location and very nice. It has a beautiful view. Castro has no charm. A lot of traffic in the center and a combination of new restaurants and run down buildings at the edges. People are wonderful.
