Colchagua Tiny Lodge
Colchagua Tiny Lodge is a small, adults-only lodging located in the Apalta sector of the Colchagua Valley, just a short drive from Santa Cruz. The lodge offers a handful of small cabins, each built in a “tiny house” style using local wood and natural materials. The setting is rural and quiet, with surrounding vineyards and open fields.
The cabins are arranged in a row and relatively close to each other. While the environment is peaceful, privacy may be limited—guests sitting on their private decks are visible to those passing by on the road or walking around the property.
Your Stay
Each cabin is modest in size but well-equipped. Units feature:
- Private entrance and terrace
- Small kitchenette (fridge, microwave, kettle)
- Private bathroom with shower
- Air conditioning and heating
- Wi-Fi
A few of the cabins also include private, wood-fired hot tubs. Some packages may include extra touches like chocolates, flowers, or a bottle of wine, depending on the booking option.
The focus here is on simplicity. There are no shared facilities or on-site restaurant. The experience is designed for guests looking for independence and a base for exploring the area.
