Hotels near Escondido Lake, Ushuaia

Very friendly staff, super cosy and clean

Good location and buffet breakfast all day

What was not to like? An eco lodge on the edge of the Beagle Channel where you wake up to the most beautiful view in the world. A place where the chef produces mouth watering food. Then the outing on their vessel to go whale watching, almost touch a glacier, followed by a genuine BBQ at an estancia by the water’s edge. We walked a beach almost untouched by plastic pollution and we all found ourselves marvelling at how privileged we were to be sharing Jorg and Constanza’s dream of a holiday so close to nature and yet so very comfortable

I highly recommend staying in this beautiful place. The hosts are super welcoming, communication was excellent from the beginning. They picked me up in the middle of the night from the ferry, fire already lit and the hut cozy and warm. Whenever they went to a trip they would offer me to join or helped me with transportation whereever I wanted to go. Two times I had dinner with them and the food was super delicious and fresh and we had nice conversations though my Spanish is very little, but translator helped ;) It`s a calm and peaceful place with beautiful view onto the Beagle Canal and Argentinia`s mountains and lovely free raoming horses are your neighbors. You can easily walk to the nearby waterfalls and the botanical garden. The town centre is a bit further, but still walkable. Otherwise there would alwas be someone to give you a lift. I was happily surprised, that there was WI-FI. It was not always working super fast, but was good enough to plan my further travels and sometimes would even work for videos etc. and will probably improve in future. I stayed four days and wished I had not booked my flight in advance so I could have stayed longer. For the ones who are worried about keeping the fire going: Arturo would always come to help, but there was also a gas stove to bridge some time without the wood stove.

Location and views across the Beagle Channel. Also close to boat if arriving in the middle of the night. Arturo has created a warm environment and we enjoyed meeting the other hostel stayers. One big family. Emma a delight too. Very flexible.
