Our Stay at Weskar Patagonian Lodge

By Claudia Looi 1 Comment

6 Apr
Weskar Patagonian Lodge
From the moment we stepped on the wooden front porch, ‘friend desk' (as they call their front desk), passing through the cozy living room through the hallway to our quad room upstairs with a partial view of the lake, Puerto Natales town and mountain, we felt like we were home.

friend desk Our room has one king size bed and two single beds and a bathroom. The hotel is set high on a quiet street along the coast of Puerto Natales. The view is so amazing that I stayed two full days in the hotel just watching the unforgettable view of the Andes mountains, Ultima Esperanza fjord, lake and sunrise and sunset while writing for my clients. Here are two Vine videos and photos to show the beauty of the area surrounding the hotel:

view of the city Weskar water viewWhile I was sitting in the sunbathed dining room, a new guest walked around and commented, “This room looks like a classroom!” He was quite right. My son was doing school for a few hours out of our six day stay. My daughter and I were sitting doing some work in the same room.

The menu changes everyday. Try the array of Chilean wine or drink pisco sour while watching the sunset.

The friendly staff was always there to answer any questions that we had. They even provided glasses for our water. As you can see we bought many 5 liter bottles of water from the supermarket and carried them back to the hotel.

Most hotels in Patagonia Chile or anywhere in South America cater only to two people in the room. Some up to three and hardly any have rooms for four unless you are willing to pay $5,000 for four nights at Explora or Tierra Patagonia during high season.

Weskar Patagonian Lodge provides complimentary full breakfast daily with bacon, eggs, ham, cheeses, pastries, bread, coffee, tea, juice, fruits and more.

Thank you Weskar Patagonian Lodge for giving us a one night complimentary stay in two double rooms.

Most visitors only spend a few hours in San Marino Most visitors only spend a few hours in San Marino. I decided to stay overnight, and it completely changed the experience.

As the day-trippers left, the streets fell silent. The medieval castle took on a different charm in the warm evening light, the sunset over the surrounding countryside was unforgettable, and dinner was a delicious plate of fresh truffle pasta.

If you’re planning a trip through Italy, don’t just make San Marino a quick stop. Spend the night. You’ll experience a peaceful side of one of the world’s smallest countries that many visitors never get to see.

Would you stay overnight in San Marino?

I couldn’t believe it when our guide showed us thi I couldn’t believe it when our guide showed us this tiny rainforest seed in Kinabalu Park. After a few tries with the lighter, it finally caught fire and burned like a candle thanks to its natural oils.

Nature never stops surprising me. Have you ever seen a seed that can do this?

During our walking tour of Baku, we unexpectedly s During our walking tour of Baku, we unexpectedly stumbled upon a rehearsal of traditional Azerbaijani male dancers. Dressed in their striking chokha costumes and papakha hats, they practiced powerful, warrior-like movements rooted in centuries of Caucasian tradition.

It wasn’t a staged performance for tourists, just a beautiful, authentic glimpse into Azerbaijan’s living culture. These spontaneous moments are often the ones I remember most from my travels.

You haven’t truly experienced Malaysia until you’v You haven’t truly experienced Malaysia until you’ve had a glass of Teh Tarik. 🇲🇾

Known as “pulled tea,” this beloved Malaysian drink is made with strong black tea and sweetened condensed milk, then skillfully poured back and forth to create a smooth, creamy texture and its famous frothy top.

From mamak stalls to family gatherings, Teh Tarik is more than a drink, it’s a taste of Malaysia’s warmth, culture, and everyday life.

Have you tried Teh Tarik before, or would this be on your Malaysia food list? 👇🇲🇾
