When I stayed a whole week at Patagonia Villa Lodge, I was looking for the ultimate escape from the maddening crowd and I got everything I wanted. Situated in the romantic Bosque del Faldeo (Faldeo forest), it was hidden enough to afford me the privacy I needed to really get away from it all, but still be a convenient remis ride away from the navigation tours that departed from the Ushuaia tourist port. I loved being surrounded by the trees, listening to the birds every morning, and getting lots of daylight in my little treehouse cabin to read, write, and paint in. When I got in, I received an extremely personalized check in from Pilar who was at the gate the moment by taxi arrived from the airport. I got a tour of the place and all its amenities as well as a detailed run down of nearby food deliveries and tour/independent options for my hiking trip. At all times, she was available by Whatsapp should I need anything, I always felt very taken care of, for that I am extremely grateful. The central heating under the floors kept me warm and toasty every night, and there was a bottle of champagne in the fridge, which was a lovely surprise. Patagonia Villa Lodge is easy to find, there are smart signboards every major road uphill into the woods from the city so my tour buses had no problems finding me at the crack of dawn to take me to Tierra del Fuego, etc. Highly recommend, especially for travelers looking for the healing power of nature and the luxury boutique experience.
