The Singular Patagonia
Puerto Natales, Chile
To arrive at The Singular Patagonia is to embark on a wild adventure c this is nature immersion in its truest form. Set just outside the town of Puerto Natales in Southern Chile, you’ll feel you’re entering another world as the floor-to-ceiling, six-metre-wide windows draw the eye across fjords and to the Andes beyond. The hotel inhabits a former 20th-century cold storage plant, later designated as a National Monument, beautifully restored and reimagined as a cosy-comfortable five-star (should you be interested, you can marvel at the private collection of machines, engines and other artifacts). The rooms make a feature of the far-flung view, with glass walls allowing you to lie in 500 thread-count cotton linens and admire Mother Nature’s handiwork. Decor has been chosen to harmonise with the terrain, all earthy tones and textural detailing. Don’t stay in bed too long; the great outdoors is calling, from glacier expeditions, horseback rides and trekking through Torres del Paine National Park to kayaking, fly-fishing or cold water swimming. Post-adventure muscles can be soothed in the eco-spa, where massages are expertly meted out using organic oils. The double-height dining room, warmed by a log-burning fire, invites diners to feast on the likes of Patagonian hare, lamb and South American king crab, perfectly paired with a bottle from the hotel's strong Chilean wine selection.
