We all sometimes day-dream, about spending a week of leisure in a remote place, a place so far away, that even with an internet signal or a mobile phone connection, it is ourselves who lose the connection, that keeps us stuck to daily duties and obligations. Close your diary, and forget your responsabilities, be a child again for a moment, busier whith what happens outside than inside yourself.
As it slogan says, Remota is such a distant place, that you have to deserve get there. Is the ideal place to complety forget about city and enjoy in a land full of nature and patagonic culture.
The hotel is located in Puerto Natales, Patagonia’s center, three hours from Punta Arenas city. The large house where it is at has a magalleanic and british inspiration and mixes open spaces with luxury elements to traveler’s comfort. Between its particular attractions we don’t find TV on the 72 double rooms, but a room for movies and music, talks about patagonic culture and a complete leisure room, temperate and made for rest. Remota hotel is tradition and nature, enjoyed with luxury and splendor.
Visits of unforgettable splendor and mistery, in small groups, and in the company of a bilingual guide, are selected by our guests every day. A full experience that includes not only visiting Torres del Paine National Park, but the area that surrounds Puerto Natales, the local farms, sailing through the fiords, and meeting the people and the culture of Patagonia.
