Arakur Ushuaia Resort and Spa | Luxury Tailor Made Patagonia and Antarctica Holidays | The Ultimate Travel Company

ARAKUR RESORT AND SPA, USHUAIA

Set high above Ushuaia, this contemporary hotel combines wide Beagle Channel views with easy access to Tierra del Fuego’s landscapes

A CONTEMPORARY BASE ABOVE THE BEAGLE CHANNEL

Arakur Resort and Spa occupies a prominent position on a natural balcony within the Reserva Natural Cerro Alarkén in Patagonia and around 250 metres above sea level. From here, the hotel looks out across Ushuaia, the Beagle Channel and the surrounding mountains, while remaining just a short drive from the city centre and international airport. It offers both perspective and practicality, placing guests close to the region’s key sights while maintaining a clear sense of space and scale.

The hotel’s architecture is modern and purposeful, designed to frame the landscape rather than compete with it. More than 100 rooms and suites are arranged to take full advantage of the views, whether across the bay, the city or the valleys and peaks beyond. Interiors are contemporary and comfortable, with smart temperature control, generous en-suite bathrooms and large windows that bring the outside in. Senior Suites offer additional space, with separate living areas suited to longer stays.

Wellness plays a central role. Indoor and outdoor pools, hot tubs and water-jet facilities are supplied with natural rainwater and glacial meltwater, and positioned to make the most of the surroundings. A well-equipped spa and fitness centre provide a welcome counterpoint to days spent outdoors, whether hiking, exploring or travelling further afield.

Dining is led by La Cravia Restaurant, which serves international cuisine and from Argentina with wide-reaching views over the Beagle Channel, Ushuaia and the distant Vinciguerra Glacier. A lobby bar and pool bar offer more relaxed spaces for drinks and light bites. As a base, Arakur works particularly well for exploring Tierra del Fuego National Park and the wider region, while offering comfort and calm at the end of the day.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”
We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by The Ultimate Travel Company – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“A TRUSTED CHOICE EVERY TIME”
From start to finish, everything is handled with care and attention, and nothing ever feels like too much trouble. As a solo traveller, I appreciate the consistency- while there is a supplement, the quality of accommodation is never compromised. The escorted tours suit me perfectly, with excellent hotels, knowledgeable guides and the flexibility to opt in or out of the daily programme. With a relaxed pace and time to properly enjoy each destination, it all adds up to a far better experience. While they may be a little more than some group holidays, the smaller, friendly groups and overall quality make it well worth it.

“A SEAMLESS JOURNEY THROUGH SOUTH AMERICA AND ANTARCTICA”
Our South America and Antarctica journey was exceptionally well organised from start to finish. Despite the complexity of the itinerary, every detail was handled smoothly, with excellent accommodation, knowledgeable guides, and seamless arrangements throughout. We would happily recommend The Ultimate Travel Company and look forward to travelling with them again.
