Hotel Estancia Tercera Barranca

That being said, and with the correct expectations, this place offers a unique experience to see the region. I was the only and last guest before the close for the season, so it was lonely, but that just made it better for me. Every day my guide wold pick me, we crossed the river and spent days searching for pumas. The food was really good. I was lucky to have the head chef himself prepare my meals. There was no menu. The first day they asked about food restrictions and just made a three course meal based on that. I had lamb prepared by a gaucho and good wine while an armadillo roamed outside the kitchen .The views are amazing. The room was clean and nice, with hot water and heater. This is not for everyone. This is not a hotel. This is not luxurious. I had done my research, including reading some really bad reviews here, but I understood that Tercera Barranca cannot be judged as a hotel.

Terrible location, horrible road to reach the Torres del Paine park. Nobody told us we would need to cross a river to reach the Park in a reasonable time, otherwise you need to drive 1,5 hours each way (3 hours in total) in rocks to reach the Park entrance ! Overpriced food, and an actual operating farm, with livestock around !

The hotel is average. Very difficult to get in and a long drive to the Torres del Paine Park. The food, the hotel and the experience is extremely overpriced. Also, carefully with the reservation, they have no flexibility at all and you might end up loosing money.

Bad experience here, except for the staff who was nice. We had an important water leak in our bathroom. We complained to the lady at the reception and have been told that she didn’t know anything about it. Too bad, we’d just read before in a comment here that the people who where before us had the same problem! The meal was very basic but extremely expensive. We had during all the length of our stay a huge can full of paint in front of our door without any reason and the outdoors were very dirty. Not recommended at all

Terrible location to visit the Torres national park and far too expensive for what you get. The google maps location is wrong so you are 1-1-5 hours from the park down very rough roads using extra fuel with no nearby gas stations (Puerto Natales is ＞100km away). The property does have a nice view of the mountains from a distance if you don’t want to visit. During my stay the WiFi only worked at reception, the sink leaked water onto the floor, the water was just room temperature and the heat worked sporadically so the first night the room was very cold. The staff is nice. They were willing to provide a free dinner if I guaranteed to check out early so they could free up the room.

WARNING: you have to drive over an hour and a half to get into the park from this ranch vs. the stated google maps drive time of 20 minutes. This ranch has not fixed Google maps. This becomes a much larger issue when you account for the fact that there is only gas in Puerto Natales. The ranch is okay, but absolutely not worth the drive time. You might as well stay in town at that point where there’s actual gas readily available. There were a number of issues with the room (bad WiFi, heating problems, hot water, tub and shower issues, leaking sink, etc).

Great location with beautiful surroundings. If you know the road it is easy and fast to get to the national park. The food is amazing ! The staff is very friendly and welcoming.

If you're planning to go to Torres del Paine, don't stay here. I didn't realize how far away it is. Probably 90 minutes. The distance from the main 'road' to the ranch itself is 30 minutes alone - 12km on incredibly rough terrain that our little Fiat almost could not handle. The accommodation itself is perfectly adequate, the views are gorgeous, and the food they served is fantastic - honestly one of our best meals on the entire trip. That said, I literally have no idea why you would stay here. It is near absolutely nothing and there is nothing to do on the ranch. We asked if there were walking trails around the ranch and they advised us not to because they had seen pumas on the property!!

Dieses Anwesen liegt einsam auf der Barranca Hochebene. Es ist ein kleineres Anwesen auf dem ein Gästehaus errichtet wurde und nun Gäste bewirtet werden. Diese Estancia ist höchstwahrscheinlich die bestgelegene in ganz Chile, und erlaubt von jedem Zimmer aus einen einzigartigen Blick auf das Torres del Paine Massiv mit seinen Granitbergen. Um diese Jahreszeit sieht man nichts von der Rancharbeit, denn die Tiere sind auf dem 9000 ha großen Grundstück verstreut. Das Gästehaus hat 8 Zimmer und eine große Lobby. Es ist neuwertig. Zimmer und Bad sind sehr groß und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Leder und Schaffälle dienen als Deko. Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft – auch nach europäischen Standards gemessen. Speisesaal und Küche sind in einem eigenen Gebäude. Alle Räumlichkeiten erlauben einen Blick auf die Berge. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und spricht englisch. Sogar die Kellnerin, Javiera spricht englisch. Das Essen ist ausgezeichnet und man kann zwischen mehreren vor-, Haupt- und Nachspeisen wählen. Der Besitzer ist unsichtbar, aber immer erreichbar und hilfsbereit. In Summe sind Unterkunft, Verpflegung und Service volle 5 Sterne wert. Der einzige Nachteil ist die Tatsache, dass alles vollkommen überteuert ist, da man ja keine andere Möglichkeit zum Essen und Trinken hat. Ein kleines Bier kostet z.B. 8 USD. Dies sollte man im Vorfeld wissen, da man dann in der Stadt einkaufen könnte.
