Very cozy and warm apartment, literally right next to the ski slopes, with everything you need. There is a deck with incredible sunset views with Santiago in the distance. The WiFi worked great. Bernard is a wonderfully helpful and responsive host. For transfer from the airport, he connected us with a friendly driver and stored and transferred our luggage the last day for a full day of skiing.

For my fellow Americas, a few ski season tips: Pay for transfer, don’t rent a car as road conditions can be dodgy. Be sure to load up on food at the supermarket on the way up as there are no stores and limited restaurants in La Parva. Bring both Visa and Mastercard as there are several discounts with one or the other. Look for specials to buy interconnect lift passes to Valle Nevada and El Colorado. And finally, arrive with a mobile data plan, Google Translate, and WhatsApp. Chileans don’t generally speak English and everyone uses WhatsApp for texting and calls. Enjoy!
