By making a reservation through this website, you confirm that you accept these Terms and Conditions.

Check-in & Check-out

Guests can check into their rooms after 2:00 pm each day. Guests may arrive earlier and leave their luggage, but access to the rooms will not be granted until after 2:00 pm.

In accordance with Chilean law, we require a valid passport or identification document for guest registration.

Guests checking out must remove all their belongings from their room, check out before 12:00 noon, and return the keys to the reception. After this time, guests can use the luggage storage and other common facilities.

In the case of a late check-out, Palafito Cucao Lodge reserves the right to charge for additional nights at the corresponding rate. Administrative discretion will be applied.

Age Restrictions

Reservations from anyone under 18 years of age are not accepted. Anyone under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult (over 18 years old) who is a parent or legal guardian.

Guest Behavior

The comfort, safety, and protection of our guests are of utmost importance to us. Any guest who, in the opinion of our staff, compromises the comfort, safety, or protection of other guests, staff, or local residents will be asked to leave the premises and will not be offered a refund. Guests are expected to respect other guests, staff, local residents, and property. In the case of groups, group leaders must ensure that all members of their group behave acceptably. If a group member does not do so, it will result in the expulsion of the entire group.

Smoking

Smoking is not allowed inside the Palafito Cucao Lodge premises, except in designated areas such as balconies and terraces. Any guest found smoking inside the building will be asked to stop smoking immediately; if repeated, they will be asked to leave the premises immediately and will not be offered a refund.

Personal Property

Guests are requested to use the room safes to store valuable items and to lock their room door at all times. It is the guest’s responsibility to ensure that their personal belongings are secure at all times. Palafito Cucao Lodge accepts no responsibility for loss, theft, or damage to property.
