&Beyond Vira Vira
Soulful organic farm in Chile’s Lake District
Farm, forest, and volcano at your doorstep
Set within Chile’s lush Lake District, &Beyond Vira Vira lies on a working estate in the heart of Araucanía—ancestral homeland of the Mapuche people.
Bordering the Liucura River and facing the smoking cone of Villarrica Volcano, the 22-hectare (34-acre) estate opens to some of Chile’s wildest corners. Here, snow-dusted peaks tower above ancient forests, and glacial lakes mirror the changing light.
Expansive windows frame every outlook, from sunlit woodlands to star-filled skies. Inside, handwoven tapestries, Mapuche artefacts, and richly textured materials bring warmth and meaning to every space. Accommodation includes six cosy suites, twelve split-level villas, and a five-bedroom Hacienda perfect for families or groups. A farm-to-table kitchen, flourishing organic garden, boutique cheese factory, and two open-air hot tubs make Vira Vira as generous as it is grounding.
