Our priority is to place you in the heart of the attractions Argentina has to offer in properties that put you in the best spots to enjoy the scenery on offer. Buenos Aires has some delightfully contemporary hotels, whilst areas such as Peninsula Valdes has characterful lodges within close proximity to the wildlife reserves.

The Lodge has 11 rooms and offers full board services as well as diverse recreational activities. The restaurant is open to the public for lunch, dinner and tea.
