Lakutaia is the lodge pick, out on the shore by the airstrip. Its Expedia listing describes a restaurant, a bar, a free continental breakfast and a free airport pick-up — the most complete night on this list, if the listing is right.
None of it scores: we tried the lodge’s own site, lakutaia.cl, and it didn’t load for us. It takes 24 on distance: about 1.4 km from our town-centre point, so it’s a ride, not a walk.
Confirm the pick-up and dinner when you book — those two are why you’d choose it.
Book it if
- You want dinner and a bar without going into town
- You want an airport pick-up arranged
- You like the water outside the window
Look elsewhere if
- You want to walk into town
- You want facts from the lodge itself
- You’re traveling with a pet
Your night before, from here
From check-in to the gangway, using only what Lakutaia publishes and our own map estimates.
Expedia lists a restaurant and a bar in the lodge, so you may not need to go into town. Confirm it’s serving the night you’re in.
No ride to the ship is listed. If you bought Silversea’s flight package, airport transfers are included, per Silversea; otherwise ask Silversea where and when to report, because the pier’s position isn’t published and Zodiacs are sometimes the only way on board.
Expedia lists a free continental breakfast from 7:30 to 10:00 — a listing’s word, so it doesn’t score.
Lakutaia sits on Seno Lauta, about 1.4 km west of our town-centre point by our estimated pins. Expedia puts “Puerto Williams Dock” about 1.3 mi, a 4-minute drive, away. That’s a ride with bags, not a walk.
Expedia lists free self-parking for your stay — nothing covers the voyage.
Night-Before Score: 24 of 100
Every point comes from our map pins and, for the facts shown, its Expedia listing, which earns no points (we tried lakutaia.cl, the only own site we found, and it didn’t load for us); the hub explains how the Night-Before Score works.
Getting here, and on to the ship
By our map estimate Lakutaia is about 550 m from Puerto Williams airstrip in a straight line, and about 1.4 km from the town centre. Every question mark below is a ride you book yourself.
Expedia lists a free airport pick-up at scheduled times; the airstrip is about a 3-minute drive away, per the listing. Tell the lodge your flight.
No ride to the ship is listed. If you bought Silversea’s flight package, airport transfers are included, per Silversea; otherwise ask Silversea where and when to report, because the pier’s position isn’t published and Zodiacs are sometimes the only way on board.
From WPU without a hotel shuttle
No taxi or bus fare is published for the airstrip, and no source we read gives one. Silversea puts the ride to its hotel at about 10 minutes and includes airport transfers when you buy its flight package. The airport page has what is and isn’t published.
Expedia lists free self-parking for your stay — nothing covers the voyage.
Parking for your stay: Free self-parking, per Expedia.
No ride to the ship is listed. If you bought Silversea’s flight package, airport transfers are included, per Silversea; otherwise ask Silversea where and when to report, because the pier’s position isn’t published and Zodiacs are sometimes the only way on board.
Flying in the morning you sail? DAP’s morning flight from Punta Arenas lands with the day still ahead of a 21:00 Silversea sailing, but one weather cancellation costs you a day; the airport page has the landing check.
Which quay
the town centreWe measure to the town centre, not a quay, because no source prints where the new pier sits and Silversea says Zodiacs are sometimes the only way on board. By our estimated pins Lakutaia is about 1.4 km from that point. Your documents say where you board — and on a Fly Cruise you don’t board here at all, you fly to King George Island. Our Puerto Williams port page covers the pier works.
