While we’ve had a look at a couple of excellent estancias, it is by no means the full range that Latin Routes have to offer you. Today we escape deep into the Argentinian countryside to discover the most peaceful and relaxing estancias that Argentina has to offer.
This beautiful estancia is a real treat – stunning colonial architecture perfectly blended with a few modern touches to make your stay as comfortable as possible. With a rich and fascinating history, the building itself used to house General Martin Miguel de Guemes, a patriot of Salta and a well-known historical figure in the region. The hotel is still owned by his descendants even today!
The hotel is well-equipped to fit your needs, featuring a lovely outdoor swimming pool, historic library and over 3000 acres of grounds for you to explore! In addition to this, you have the option to pursue activities such as horse riding, bird watching and trekking in the surrounding area. As the hotel is also a working estancia, you also have the opportunity to gain an insight into the life of a Gaucho, including cattle roundups and other Gaucho chores.
A luxurious, peaceful estancia in an incredible location in the Sierras of Cordoba. This estancia manages to combine the authenticity of a real working estancia with the luxury of a 5* hotel. Offering just 9 beautifully furnished rooms, this estancia really stands out in terms of attention to detail. Everything in the way this estancia is built shows a careful consideration of the needs of the customer – the staff are friendly, helpful and efficient, allowing you to relax and enjoy your holiday to Argentina.
A range of activities are on offer at El Colibri Estancia De Charme. A firm favourite, however, is the sport of polo – the estancia has 45 ponies, two polo fields and highly qualified coaches. Nonetheless, guests can also enjoy such treats as yoga, golf, bird watching and fishing along with helping the Gauchos round up the cattle!
