The experience

We are one of the best hostels with history of more than 20 years in one of the beautifulest area of Chilean Lake District. Puerto Varas is safe and attractive old city near to famous lake Llanquihue with a spectacular view to volcano Osorno.
We search someone to share our space and beautiful moments, and who wants to become part of our family for a little time and will help us to create a space that feels like a home away from home.
