Hotel AWA: A Design Hotel on the Shores of Lake Llanquihue

Hotel AWA is a serene design hotel on the shore of Lake Llanquihue near Puerto Varas, in the lush, German-influenced Lake District of southern Chile, with the perfect cone of the Osorno Volcano rising across the water. Filled with a contemporary art collection and run with an all-inclusive, personal ethos, it is a stylish base for exploring the region's volcanoes, forests and fjords.

At its heart is the AWA Restaurant, where gastronomy focuses on locally sourced ingredients from small-scale and indigenous producers of the Los Lagos region, with a refined seasonal menu that celebrates the flavors of Chile, under Claudia Quiroz.

For a design-led Lake District stay, Hotel AWA is a standout.
