From recent guests:

Phenomenal house! We are blown away. My wife and I marvel at the architecture, design that is as aesthetic as it is functional, the breathtaking views and the art that furnishes the home. Ivan is a sweet guy and he showed us pictures of his brand new baby. We are heading to Valparaiso and Vina del Mar today, but I must admit that all 3 generations (my parents are here along with my 2 sons) feel a strong pull to come back quickly and enjoy the house.

What an amazing home you have! Although it stretched our budget to the limit it was worth every penny and more! I don't think I have ever stayed in such a beautiful house! From the architecture to the gardens to the furnishings and the location to Ivan's personal service every aspect of the house is absolutely top notch. Every where you look in the house there are wonderful design or decoration touches. We almost didn't want to go exploring because the house was so wonderful! Please let us know if you have homes in other parts of the world we should visit!

About Judy

We came to Chile on vacation and fell in love! We are so proud to be chosen by Conde Nast Traveler as one of the 'Visionary Villas of 2011'. Villa Tunquen was also chosen the winner on HGTV episode, 'The Curved House'. You can see the video below.. It makes us happy to share our piece of paradise with you!

Judy purchased this villa in 2008
Why Judy chose Santiago

We were so inspired by the location, we wanted to be nestled into the environment, with soaring ceilings, curved walls of windows, enjoying lush gardens and the incredible backdrop of the Pacific Ocean, beautiful sweet water lagoon and five miles of deserted beach. All within 90 minutes of Santiago airport, incredible Casablanca wineries and the beautiful fishing village of Quintay.

We couldn't ask for more!!

What makes this villa unique

Tunquen means 'the place where you gather strength' in the Mapuche language. It is just that!

very privat and beatifull holiday home

5 of 5
Submitted: January 28, 2010 Stayed: January 2010
This house is the perfect place to go to if you're looking for relaxation, privacy, incredible views and indulging yourself in luxury. The architecture as well as the decoration of both in and exterior are done in such a way that you feel very welcome and at home from the moment you arrive. The house fits you like comfortable clothing. And if you want to get out: Quintay (nice restaurants) is round the corner, Valparaiso 20 minutes away and Santiago-Center a little over an hour.
We very much recommend this house and will definitely come again.
(if we, in the mean time, haven't bought our own house on the coast next to it)

WE ENJOYED OUR STAY IMMENSELY!

Submitted: May 11, 2013 Stayed: May 2013
Two family clan enjoyed our stay immensely! The view from the kitchen makes cooking even more enjoyable given the gourmet kitchen. Beautiful beach down below with 'muy poca gente' ! Wonderful jacuzzi and outdoor Quincho area. Bit cold for the swimming pool but the house was warm and very comfy, especially with the fireplace.
Fully recommend lunch at Quintay. Beautiful food and very pretty scenery.
Thank you very much for the opportunity to be here and for letting Petie come!
Cheers!!

simply amazing

Submitted: May 6, 2013 Stayed: May 2013
we had been to beautiful Quintay for lunch and thought the area would be interesting alternative to Vina etc as a place to stay. Tunquen itself, or at least the area where the Villa is located, is amazing. Stunning views of the beach and architecturally designed houses dispersed on the cliff tops. The Villa is one of the best of them with incredible view and close to the beach. ample gardens combiend with a modern but stylish home with a gourmet kitchen, quality fittings and interesting art. We enjoyed our stay immensely and Saraya was very helpful. Owner a pleasure to deal with and really appreciated her flexibility to ensure we had a relaxing family stay. Can't wait to go back!

ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES ON EARTH!

Submitted: April 13, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
I am writing this on our last night here, out on the patio under a dazzling blanket of stars and moonlight. Oh, what a special place Villa Tunquen is for us! We feel such a special connection for this reverent place. Our days were spend splashing in the pool, and chasing our children across the deck and into the "warm pool" (hot tub). We made sand castles down on the beach, we took walks through the gardens. We made big breakfasts, played Monopoly, relaxed, sunbathed and watched the powerful waves crash along the shore. This place couldn't be more perfect!
My husband and I enjoyed the BEST MASSAGES OF OUR LIVES from Soraya up in the Meditation tower. That Tower is fabulous - the view, the chairs, the windows - everything about it makes it one of our favorite places on earth!
We hope to be back next year. I can't bear the thought of too much time about from this serene, peaceful, gorgeous place.
Thank you for sharing your home with us!! We have made some of our most cherished memories here!

A UNIQUE HOME WITH AN UNSURPASSED KITCHEN!

Submitted: April 13, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
A unique home with an unsurpassed kitchen! We love to cook together and our family shared food, wine and preparation. One could not ask for a more beautiful, tranquil setting to spend family time. Our children traveled from NYC, San Francisco and we from Oregon to discover Chile!
Soroya provided so much help with local information, house related questions and great massages!!
Your home made our holiday! Thank you.

NEVER HAVE BEEN IN A BETTER DESIGNED SPACE!

Submitted: April 13, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
Our family of four from Toronto spent three lovely nights in Villa Tunquen. The house and the views are both magnificent! I don't remember ever having been in a better designed space. No wasted space. The outdoor rooms really add to the ambiance!
We tried to sit and enjoy every area, but I think we did miss one or two.
A Great Place!

WHAT A SPECIAL, MAGICAL PLACE!

Submitted: April 3, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying at your beautiful Villa Tunquen over Easter weekend! What a special, magical place! And a perfect escape from Santiago! Thank you for renting it to us at the last minute. We couldn't have asked for a better weekend away. Architecturally, the house is amazing! What beautiful shapes and curves! And all of the wood - just stunning! It blends right into the hillside at Tunquen and provides the perfect resting place to renew and recharge! Your collection of Mapuche artwork and artifacts is fantastic and such a treat to be surrounded by it in the house. The kids had so much fun exploring the garden and running wild on the beach! The meditation tower was, for me, the highlight. I am a yoga teacher and to be able to start my days doing yoga from the tower with a view of the sea was the most special thing about the weekend!

A couple of sublime days at Villa Tunquen

5 of 5
Submitted: January 14, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
The house and the surrounding area is so breathtaking. We spent a couple of days here and found the house to be magical. It hugged me with it's every curve, It is truly a beautiful home incorporated into the land with grace and simple grandeur. It was even more gorgeous than we had expected. The service was superb, the rooms clean and well stocked with towels, etc. We ate at Miramar Restaurant (can't remember the name of the beach/town, 15 min drive away) and it was delicious! I would love to visit again and bring a few friends, I recommed this property highly. The owner, Judy, was wonderful to deal with as well, excellent service.

"Straight versus Curves" We enjoyed every moment!

"Straight versus Curves" We enjoyed every moment!
Submitted: December 30, 2012 Stayed: December 2012
Villa Tunquen is the proof that a curve can be more pleasing to the spirit than a straight line! Your house is in no way "square" and your choice to follow the landscape rather than fight it, was the right one. It allowed all three generations to discover a new self-awareness!! Every solution to the spatial problems is a success and we are sure that all your guests will "find themselves" in your house even when they do not follow the shortest point from one angle to the next. We enjoyed every corner, every opening onto the landscape, and every moment. Thank you and Bravo to you and your architect.
Also a huge thank you to Soraya, for her warmth. She is just like your house; friendly and lots of fun!
P.S. There are not so many houses that you rent and then ask to stay 2 days longer because you really do not want to leave! And the kind owner says YES! Thank you Judy..

What superlatives can one add??

Submitted: December 30, 2012 Stayed: December 2012
Its so great to be back again at Villa Tunquen for the second time in 2012. What superlatives can one add to what has already been said. I just can't think of a better location for our 3-generation Chilean-American family to get together, relax and enjoy each other. And what better base from which to explore Chile's charming Central Coast.
Judy, thanks so much to you and to all those who helped create and maintain this lovely villa.
