The town of La Parva is cute but not much to do. There’s 2 restaurants. An amazing small quaint Fondue spot where you can get to know the owner and staff, which I did! There is no washer n dryer in the unit and the staff at La Marmita let me use the resturants washer/dryer!!! The other restaurant was bigger with a more traditional menu and outdoor seating. If you go, you must bring food from the grocery store to cook from Santiago. The road up/down from Santiago is about 100 switchbacks. Very steep. It took us almost 2 hours to get there and only 1 hour to get down. The actual apt is very well equipped for cooking, but I didn’t bring enough food from Santiago to cook meals! There is a super small convenience store by the lift ticket window that you can get eggs/potato/bread/veggies and snacks. Very basic stuff. It’s the size of a bathroom. The skiing was MAGNIFIENCT!!! The apt is 100 steps from the La Parva ski school however my kids wanted to ski at Valle Nevado only. So we had to drive them 30 min each morning to that mountain. There’s El Colorado 15 min. Fallceones 10 min away. La parva outside your door!!! Great place with a great deck. AMAZING VIEWS!

The host did not respond to my communications and then rented the house to someone else without telling me until the day that we were supposed to check in, leaving us in Chile with no place to stay.

Very convenient location at La Parva
