Pucón, Chile

Hotel Antumalal

A Bauhaus house on Lago Villarrica, built by the Pollak family, with the spa cut into the rock.

Our read

What stood out was the glass and stone wing on its red plinth, the indoor pool with the mountains through the glass, and a restaurant lined in araucaria with a garden running down the floor. The lake is there. The building is why.

Come here for

  • Pucón, for the house rather than the town
  • A lake window and a pool cut in rock

Skip it if

  • You want a new glass tower
  • You want to be in the centre of town

We’d rather send you somewhere else than send you somewhere that doesn’t suit you.

01 - Arrive

The place itself

Hotel Antumalal is at Camino Pucón a Villarrica km 2, Pucón, in La Araucanía, Chile. The site prints the telephone +56 45 244 1011 and the desk info@antumalal.com. Book on antumalal.com. They place the house on Lago Villarrica, in a private park of five hectares, two kilometres from the centre of Pucón. They say Guillermo Pollak and Catalina Rindler arrived from Czechoslovakia in 1938 and built the hotel, and they describe the architecture as Bauhaus. The photographs are the wing itself, glass and stone over a red plinth in the grass, the indoor pool with the mountains through the glass, the restaurant with araucaria walls and a planted run down the floor, a lounge of stone and leather chairs, a bedroom lined in vertical timber, and a sitting room at dusk with the lake in the window. They say the spa, Antumaco, is carved in rock, and that the word means a place of sun and water. The restaurant, Parque Antumalal, has been here since 1950, in their wording. A stay includes breakfast and the use of the spa, as they print it on the reservations page.
