01 Hotel At Liucura River Mod
Location
Nestled near the lakeside town of Pucon in Chile's Lake District, Vira Vira sits on 55 acres of its own land between two National Parks and a private reserve.

The peaceful Liucura River flows through the hotel grounds, providing a serene ambiance.

With its natural beauty and tranquil setting, Vira Vira offers you an opportunity to relax, explore, and reconnect with nature.
Villa Suite By Night Vira Vira Lake District And Northern Patagonia
Accommodation
Vira Vira offers a range of accommodation; 6 cosy suites, 12 split-level villas with separate living room, and a Hacienda for the sole use of up to 10 guests.

All rooms are built of wood from the native Lenga tree, forming the basis of the warm, sandy colour scheme that is complemented by an eclectic yet tasteful selection of local textiles and curios.

We recommend that you request a suite with its own hot tub with views looking out onto the river outside, though with a number of tubs in secluded spots dotted around the property, there are other options. The hotel also has a spa offering a full range of massage therapies.
The working dairy farm on which Vira Vira is established, along with its 4 greenhouses and allotments, provide locally-sourced ingredients for the delicious and varied menu at the hotel’s Relais & Chateaux gourmet restaurant.

The chef will even whip up your favourite meal at your request, and will certainly offer you the chance to taste the hotel’s 9 types of cheese.

After dinner, enjoy a drink around a large open fire whilst sipping from the extensive hotel cellar which houses a collection of fine Chilean wines.

The entire place has a wonderful, sociable atmosphere, so you might well find yourself staying up into the early hours chatting with other guests beneath a view of the red glow of the active Villarrica Volcano.
