Escape to Paradise: Olmue's Luxurious Montanas Resort Awaits! – A Review (with a Side of Honesty & Chaos)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I just got back from Montanas Resort in OlmuĂ©, Chile, and honey, I’ve got thoughts. And they’re definitely not all perfectly polished. This isn't some sanitized travel brochure; it's the real bloody deal.
First Impressions (and that darned drive!): The website photos? Yeah, gorgeous. The reality? Mostly matches, minus the slightly panicked feeling you get navigating the windy roads to get there. It's a gorgeous location, perched amidst the Chilean hills, so get ready for some breathtaking views. Accessibility-wise, they've made a real effort. Accessibility is a big deal for me, and while it wasn't perfectly flawless (more on that later), they have the basics covered: accessible rooms, an elevator, and ramps in most areas. This is HUGE, especially for a resort this size.
The Rooms: A Haven with a Few Hiccups – Okay, let's talk about the heart of any hotel stay: the room. My room was… well, it felt like a luxurious hug. Available in all rooms: there's a Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! (thank the lord!), Air conditioning, a ridiculously comfy Extra long bed (perfect for sprawling), and even Blackout curtains (because daylight is the enemy when you're on vacation). Additional toilet (score!), Bathrobes (ooh la la!), and a Coffee/tea maker (essential survival kit item, right?). I did find that the Internet access – wireless was spotty sometimes, and the Internet access – LAN (thank goodness I had LAN!) was more reliable. My room sanitization opt-out available and I felt very safe.
But… a tiny gripe? They say non-smoking rooms, but I swear I caught a whiff of something… let’s just say, not fresh air. And the hair dryer was… well, let's say it took longer than expected to dry my hair, I may or may not have sat there, holding the dryer, yelling at it to get it over with. The room was great but not perfect, a bit chaotic, but clean.
Eating, Drinking, and Surviving… Deliciously? This is where Montanas really shines. Dining, drinking, and snacking – oh my! They offer a Breakfast [buffet] (massive and amazing), and a Breakfast [buffet] could be overwhelming if I wasn't ready for it. They have a Western breakfast and a Asian breakfast to choose from. The Restaurants include a A la carte in restaurant and a Buffet in restaurant, the choices are endless. I'm talking croissants, fruit, eggs cooked any way you want, and fresh juices. The Coffee/tea in restaurant was strong and plentiful! The Coffee shop was a lovely place in the morning. And at night, the Bar, the Poolside bar were the perfect spot to relax. The Happy hour was fabulous, I had a blast!
Now, remember what I said about perfection? The Vegetarian restaurant options were a little… sparse. But the International cuisine in restaurant was to die for! And the Desserts in restaurant were… I'm not even going to tell you. Let's just say, I may have gone back for seconds (and thirds). Room service [24-hour] - heaven sent.
Relaxation Station: Spa, Sauna & Soul-Soothing…Or Not? Right, so I booked myself in for some serious R&R. They have a Spa, a Sauna, a Steamroom, and a Massage. I wanted to try everything so I did! The Pool with view was ridiculously Instagrammable (guilty!). The Body scrub was amazing, the dead skin leaving my body was a wonderful experience. I indulged in a Body wrap. Oh my god! The Foot bath was great. The Pool with view was just what I needed, the Swimming pool [outdoor] great too.
This is where I have to be brutally honest. The relaxation wasn't exactly… perfect. The massage? Fantastic. The sauna? A little… stuffy. And the steam room was slightly too steamy? It felt like I almost died in there. But hey, it's all part of the experience, right?
Things to Do (Besides Eating and Napping): Beyond the spa, there’s the Fitness center (shocker, I didn't go), the Gym/fitness class (I might have tried that one), with a Swimming pool, and for the more active, the resort has a lovely terrace. There's also a Shrine, for those seeking a bit of a spiritual getaway. The Terrace, of course, is the perfect place to be. They have Meeting/banquet facilities for a meeting with the girls. They also have a Family/child friendly hotel and Babysitting service, so that could be another great option to try, if you have the kids.
Cleanliness & Safety: Trying to Keep it Real – In these Covid times, safety is paramount, am I right? Montanas Resort takes it seriously. They had Hand sanitizer everywhere, and the staff were all masked up. The Anti-viral cleaning products they use make me feel safe. The Daily disinfection in common areas made me feel more comfortable, and the Rooms sanitized between stays. But, let's face it, they're human. The Physical distancing of at least 1 meter wasn't always adhered to (though, to be fair, that's not entirely their fault!). And, I'm not going to lie, at times, I was a little worried. They have a Doctor/nurse on call, which is a bonus.
The Price Tag and the Verdict (with a Final Note of Honesty): Montanas Resort is a splurge. It's not budget travel, let's be clear. But, honestly? It’s worth it. The stunning location, mostly great food, and the sheer variety of things to do make it a fantastic escape. Sure, there are minor imperfections. Service is good, but not always perfect. The steam room might try to kill you. It’s not a perfect utopia, but really, where is?
FINAL VERDICT: Go. Just… go. Book your flights. Pack your bags. And prepare to be utterly charmed. Forget about the minor details. The stunning views, the delicious food, and the chance to completely switch off make Montanas Resort a true escape to paradise.

Escape to Paradise: Isha Marari Beach Homestay, Alleppey, India
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this itinerary is gonna be LESS "organized travel agent" and MORE "drunk aunt trying to remember where she put her keys… and her sanity." We're heading to Las Montañas de OlmuĂ© Resort & Conference Center in OlmuĂ©, Chile. Wish me luck, because I'm going to need it.
Las Montañas de Olmué: The Unofficial, Possibly Ill-Planned, Adventure
Day 1: The Arrival (and the Mild Panic)
- Morning (ish, let's be honest, it'll probably be late): Wake up! (That's the plan, anyway. My internal alarm clock is… optimistic). Pack the essentials: sunglasses that actually stay on my face, a book I swear I'll read (but probably won't), and enough emergency snacks to calm a rampaging wildebeest. Oh, and my passport, important detail! Remember that time I almost forgot it for a trip to Vegas? Don't ask.
- Arrival: Flight… well, hopefully it doesn't involve any unexpected layovers in Reykjavik this time. Arrive at Santiago International Airport (SCL). The plan is to get the pre-booked private transfer to the resort. Then, the REAL test begins: the taxi ride. Pray to the travel gods for a driver who doesn't think cornering like a Formula 1 racer is a great idea. Seriously, the roads? I'm already bracing myself.
- Afternoon: Check-in! Picture it: me, a slightly frazzled ball of nerves, attempting to decipher Spanish with the dexterity of a confused toddler. Hopefully, the reception staff are patient souls. The room better have a view. I need a view. Preferably a stunning, mountain-y view to ease my pre-vacation jitters. And maybe a really comfy bed so I can collapse dramatically after the travel ordeal. Pray the room doesn't have one of those tiny, European-style showers. Just, please, no.
- Evening: Exploration! First impressions of the resort. Find the bar. Hydrate. Assess the situation. I saw pictures online, it promised "lush gardens" and "tranquil ambiance." Hoping it's not just another Instagram filter lie. Then, FOOD! I AM SO HUNGRY, and the Chilean cuisine sounds incredible. I feel like something simple, a hearty soup or maybe a grilled fish…
Day 2: The Great Outdoors (and My Failing Fitness)
- Morning: Hmmm… wake up and conquer the world? LOL. Okay, maybe just the breakfast buffet. My plan is simple: eggs, bacon, pastries, and enough coffee to jumpstart a small country. Then, THE HIKE. They say there are hiking trails around the resort. I'm a walker, a leisurely stroller. A 'hiking' sounds… intense. Prepare for the emotional rollercoaster of "I can do this!" to "Oh, God, I'm going to die!" in about 20 minutes. I'll take it slow. I am really really going to need to take it slow.
- Afternoon: Post-Hike Debrief. (If I survive the hike, that is.) If I'm still able to walk, maybe a dip in the resort pool. Or maybe just collapse on a sun lounger with a book and the aforementioned emergency snacks. Alternatively, a spa treatment is NOT out of the question. Massage? Yes, massage. My aching muscles deserve a reward.
- Evening: Dinner at the resort again. Hopefully, I'll have some energy left to try that delicious Chilean wine everyone raves about. I will try a little, then I will try a lot.
Day 3: Chilean Culture (and My Attempt to Act Cultured)
- Morning: Ooooh, a planned local tour of Olmué. This should be interesting. I'm not good with history, so I'm hoping for delicious food and charming anecdotes. I'm envisioning a colorful market, maybe a chat with a local artisan, and definitely some empanadas. And I will try to at least pretend to understand a little Spanish. My goal is to speak more than "Hola" and "Gracias" before I leave.
- Afternoon: Free time! They say the resort has horseback riding. I am NOT a horse person. Never have been. So, probably not. I'll probably wander and take pictures. Or go back to the pool. Or maybe just nap. The possibilities are endless.
- Evening: Tonight's the night for the resort's restaurant. It is time to dress up (a little). It'll be a delicious dinner, maybe a traditional dance performance, and another round of wine.
Day 4: The End Is Nigh (and I'm Not Ready)
- Morning: One last breakfast feast! Seriously, I will be eating my way through this trip and loving every single moment. Quick packing, before the dreaded departure.
- Afternoon: Sadly, it's time to leave. Last-minute stroll around the resort. Reluctant check-out. Transfer back to the airport (pray for a safe driver this time).
- Evening: Fly away. I'm taking home Chilean memories and maybe a slight wine hangover. After all this, I will be exhausted but also happy.
Important Notes:
- Flexibility is Key: Expect the unexpected. Delays are part of the joy. Embrace the chaos.
- Spanish: Learn a little! It's fun and makes life easier.
- Food: EAT EVERYTHING!
- Enjoy! This trip is for me to relax and see a new world.
Wish me luck, people! This is going to be an adventure.

So, Olmue's Luxurious Montanas Resort, huh? Sounds fancy. Is it *really* luxurious?
What about the food? Because, you know, a hungry traveler is a grumpy traveler.
Is there anything to do in Olmue, besides, you know, existing?
What are the pools like? Because, you know, pool vibes are important.
Is it kid-friendly? Because I'm traveling with a miniature human tyrant.
What about the spa? Because some of us need some serious pampering after a long trip.
Would you go back? Be honest!
