Andes Views, Marraqueta, and Anniversary Cheer
Debaines
Debaines made our anniversary stay in Santiago wonderfully easy. From our room, the evening view stretched over Agustinas toward the Andes; after sunset, the city lights looked like someone had spilled glitter across the hills. Breakfast was a real highlight: warm marraqueta, creamy scrambled eggs, fresh papaya, and a surprisingly good café con leche. We also enjoyed dinner downstairs, especially the piping-hot pastel de choclo. Friendly staff, quiet nights, and no stairs-related heroics for these retired travelers!
