Our daughter, who lives in Santiago, suggested that we look for a place in Providencia or Las Condes. I noticed Charlie’s place online and was drawn to it because it had character and looked interesting. Charlie greeted us with a big smile, an easy explanation of details and a nice bottle of wine from the vineyard that his family owns.
The unit is on the 8th floor of a nice building with views of the Andes. There is a lovely wraparound balcony with lush plants and interesting furniture where we enjoyed many after dinner evenings. Speaking of dinner, there a numerous restaurants within easy walking distance. The building itself is on a quiet, shady side street which curves between busier streets. There is a charming little park in the middle.
The kitchen is well equipped, the beds super comfortable and the bathrooms more than adequate with big tubs and plenty of hot water. The apartment was the perfect oasis for us after a busy day in a busy city!
