Lost? Here we are..


Here is a detailed map of how to find us from Errazuriz street in Vina Del Mar.
(I post this map to everyone who books a room with us)

From Errazuriz street, go to the very end with no exit.

Find house 516 or 518.

Look to the right of house 518. There is a laneway/driveway. This is Pasaje Errazuriz.

(if you are coming by car, please leave it parked on Errazuriz and tip the parking attendant.Tips are usually $1000 Chilean pesos or less.)

Go up this laneway and turn at the first left.

We are house 516/2 , white with green shutters.

We hope to see you soon!

What to pack (autumn 09)

What to pack for fall in Vina del Mar/ Valparaiso?

Some days it's blue sky 360 degrees leftover from summer days. Other days it's overcast and there's a brisk breeze from the sea.

Either way, we recommend that you come with a few t shirts, a few long sleeved tops and a jacket or two. That way your covered (literally) but don't bother bringing an umbrella, that's something you can easily pick up here at either Ripley or Falabella Dept stores just 5 min away on Sucre street.

Also pack some sunscreen for those sunny days when the sun's rays are a bit strong, or alternatively buy some here.

Here are some sites to check out the weather in Valparais region:
