Hotel Alaia

WELCOME TO HOTEL ALAIA

Situated on a rugged section of the Chilean coast, Hotel Alaia in Punta de Lobos is 220 km from the capital, Santiago de Chile.

A popular surf hangout, it is famed for its consistent breaks. Away from the crowds, the Punta de Lobos peninsular is wild, raw, and windswept. Effortlessly blending with the natural surroundings, Hotel Alaia is designed with the Chilean spirit in mind. Sustainably built, native oak is used in combination with black rock and recycled materials from the 2010 earthquake.

What we love about Hotel Alaia

  • Once a sleepy fishing village, Pichilemu was put on the map by Chilean surf star Ramón Navarro. Just a 10-minute drive from Punta de Lobos, it’s not just for surfing fanatics though. Full of hidden art galleries, exclusive in-home visits of Chilean artists like Beatriz Hagel and Isabel Klotz can occasionally be arranged upon request.
  • Pichilemu’s burgeoning food scene invites visitors to sample wholesome, simple and fresh cuisine. Try local delicacies like wild sea asparagus, black ink risotto, sorrel, and sea clams.
  • At Hotel Alaia, guests are housed in 12 private bungalows. Spacious and comfortable, each has floor-to-ceiling views of the coast and a terrace with direct access to the Pacific Ocean. Design-wise, rooms are minimalist and neutral in colour palette. Colourful woven textiles add warmth while small details like old-school style surfboards add depth to the space.

  • There are panoramic views at Hotel Alaia seep from the lobby while paintings and sculptures created by local artists are displayed throughout communal spaces and the rooms themselves. Walking along wooden decking that leads to the ocean, guests are greeted by a pool and two hot tubs.
What to do at Hotel Alaia

Preserved by the Punta de Lobos Foundation, the peninsula is an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Take a class at the property’s private surf school exclusive to guests staying at Hotel Alaia. Jump on a board, float out to sea, and take on the infamous ‘El Diamante’ wave. Fortunate with almost perfect wind conditions, there is kitesurfing, sailing, and windsurfing for travelers looking for adrenaline.

Dine fireside, looking out at the craggy coast. Below, fishermen reel in Pacific rockfish and select shellfish, forming the basis of head chef Juan Morales’s seasonal menu.

To see the coastline from another angle, Alaia has a store of stand-up paddle boards. There is also sunset yoga and horse riding.
