Are children welcome?

Yes, children are welcome at AWA Hotel, and it works particularly well for families who enjoy the outdoors and active adventures. Spacious suites and villas provide flexibility for families, while many excursions, including kayaking, gentle hiking and cultural visits, can be adapted for different ages and interests.

The lakeside setting, indoor pool and relaxed atmosphere make it an appealing base for exploring Chile’s Lake District together, though younger children may get the most from the property when spending plenty of time outdoors.

Giving back

AWA Hotel was designed with a strong commitment to sustainability, combining contemporary architecture with a deep respect for the surrounding Lake District environment. The property uses locally sourced materials, energy-efficient systems and thoughtful design principles that maximise natural light while minimising environmental impact.

The hotel also supports local communities and producers through regional sourcing, cultural partnerships and low-impact excursions that encourage responsible exploration of Patagonia’s lakes, forests and volcanic landscapes. Conservation, wellbeing and a strong connection to nature sit at the heart of the guest experience.
