Such a gem! Worth the short drive outside of Chaiten. Jose took great care of us during our time. we even decided to stay a third day. We will return the next time we are in the area.

We had the BEST time at Ecolodge Playa Fandango! Where even to begin writing this review. First of all, Hector is one of the nicest, friendliest, most entertaining, and accommodating hosts anywhere. He met us on arrival, got us headed down the right road towards the cabin (don't be alarmed, it looks like you're driving into the forest... but the reward is waiting for you when you get to the end), gave us a quick tour of our cabin, and made sure the fire in our wood-burning stove was going strong. He also showed us how to keep it that way overnight. The cabin itself is lovely, spacious, and only steps from the private beach. Just gorgeous! We had the left half of the cabin, another couple was staying in the right side (though we never heard a bit of noise). There was a nice sized living room with comfortable chairs, a table, a refrigerator and the woodstove, all with a view out to the water. A very large and super comfortable bedroom was just up a few steps, and the nicely appointed bathroom was off of that. And then there's the beach. It's rocky, you probably won't want to spread out a blanket and get a tan, but it is stunningly beautiful and mere steps from your front door. My partner and I stayed out there for hours, having a few beers at the end of a long day, watching the stars and the amazing night sky. The next morning, Hector brought breakfast to our room, and set everything out on the table for us to enjoy. Coffee for me, tea for my partner, eggs, ham, cheese, bread, fruit salad, and probably some other things I'm forgetting. It was more than we could eat, and positively delicious. This isn't anything like a typical hotel, it's much smaller and more rustic. But for us it was perfect as we were traveling the Carretera Austral and enjoying a more adventurous journey. In short, if you have the chance to stay here, DO IT! The place is amazing. We absolutely loved it and hope to return some day.
