Arakur Ushuaia Resort & Spa is a sophisticated sanctuary where luxury meets Patagonia’s raw natural beauty.
Location
Perched 300 metres above sea level, Arakur offers breathtaking, sweeping views across Ushuaia, the Beagle Channel, and the surrounding snow-capped peaks of Tierra del Fuego National Park. It’s a tranquil escape just a few minutes from the city centre, making it an ideal base for exploring both the rugged landscapes and local culture. Whether you’re preparing for an Antarctic voyage or extending your Patagonian adventure, you’re perfectly placed to soak in the region’s dramatic scenery and rich wildlife.
Rooms
The 113 rooms and suites are designed with clean lines and natural tones that reflect the surrounding forest and mountains, creating a warm, contemporary feel. Floor-to-ceiling windows showcase the stunning views, filling each space with natural light. Comforts include plush bedding, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and large bathrooms with rainfall showers. What we love: many rooms feature balconies or terraces, perfect for sipping morning coffee while watching the mist lift off the valley below.
Amenities
Arakur’s wellness area is a highlight, offering an indoor pool, sauna, hot tub, and a fully equipped spa where you can book treatments inspired by Patagonian ingredients and traditions. There’s also a gym and a yoga studio for those wanting to stay active. Dining here is a refined experience, with the Restaurante Patagonia serving fresh, locally sourced cuisine in a bright, airy space that frames the spectacular views. The bar is ideal for winding down with a cocktail as the sun sets behind the mountains.
Activities
You can easily access a wide range of outdoor adventures. Guided hikes and mountain biking in Tierra del Fuego National Park, Beagle Channel cruises, and visits to local museums and cultural centres are all within easy reach. In winter, skiing and snowboarding at nearby Cerro Castor are popular options. After a day outdoors, returning to Arakur feels like a warm, welcoming embrace.
Sustainability
Arakur is committed to responsible tourism and environmental care. The resort integrates energy-efficient technologies, water conservation, and waste reduction strategies. It also supports local communities by sourcing produce and services from nearby suppliers, ensuring your stay contributes positively to the region.
