A six-star rustic Estancia experience, with fine dining that is truly world class

Fine dining at its best. Authentic Estancia style accommodation, but very comfortable. Plenty of quaint common spaces with a different amazing view for each mealtime. Activities were fantastic, especially the horse riding and guests had exclusivity, even though day visitors also came to the Estancia. Staff could not do enough to make our stay unique

It truly is a unique experience staying at the ranch, and anyone who has the opportunity should definitely visit

Everything at this hotel is thoughtfully planned from beginning to end — from being picked up in the village and brought back, to the meals that are prepared and the breakfast that is served. Everything is arranged with great care and attention to detail. Although it is located in the countryside, the facilities are very modern, and all the staff are extremely kind and attentive.

Remote and cozy place to stay

Estancia Bonanza is remotely located in a beautiful valley. We loved being in such untamed place. The personal and services were perfect and we also appreciated the food and hot tub.

I want to go back.

Estancia Bonanza is an absolute dream! I cannot recommend enough. Me and my boyfriend (22 and 27) backpacked our way through Patagonia and wanted to treat ourselves to 2 nights of quiet luxury at the end of our journey, and that's absolutely what we got. So worth it. The staff is exceptionally friendly and their attention to detail really makes you feel at home, the land and views are incredible, the activities are well-organized and so special, the food is amazing, the rooms are so well-made, all the amenities like the hammocs, the tea room, the spa/sauna are just the cherry on top to spend an unforgettable stay! Could not have been better. If you are hesitating to splurge, do it.

The best place I have ever stayed!

This whole stay was magical! From the moment you arrive it feels like an adventure. The staff were incredible and nothing was too much. The views from our room was amazing of Fitz Roy. We reserved the hot tub, sauna and cold plunge for the evening and it was magical with all the stars. The evening meal was delicious and there was a “tea time” where you can get a hot drink and a snack at 4pm. Buffet style breakfast with cereal, cheese, ham, fruit, cakes, bread, juice, hot drinks. Then an order placed for eggs. We had the choice of horse riding, self guided hiking or cycling, the activities are dependent on staff and other bookings made (for example via Ferrata is sometimes an option but this was booked by a full group). Horse riding was lovely and the staff allowed us to do this a second time even though we had checked out!

A wonderful unique experience

It’s a unique place with almost a private view of the Fitzroy. The landscape is incredible . I love the fact that the gaucho and estancia style is kept outside look with a very cosy and comfortable inside rooms .

The most incredible stay on our 3 month tour around South America!

Our time here was really special. The team at the lodge (Mariana and Adi especially) made us feel right at home. All of the facilities were incredible, the room itself and the hot tub on the hill overlooking Fitz Roy were just incredible. The food the chef cooked was amazing as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our rides out on the horses, we got to see some beautiful views on horseback. We felt like every need was catered for, we were picked up and dropped off to the bus stop. We were also dropped off to the start of the trail to laguna los tres and picked up from town after a long 22km trek! We really enjoyed that WiFi was only in common areas as we could enjoy our books & the view without distraction. The lodge has a special place in our hearts! You will not regret booking here.

Heaven on earth! The BEST way to experience El Chalten.

Estancia Bonanza is truly a slice of heaven on earth! I had expected good things but never thought it would be one of the best experiences ever. The staff was exceptional - they truly made us feel like part of their family and that they genuinely cared about our comfort. As for the estancia itself, waking up and seeing the glacier on Mt. Fitzroy every morning and knowing that each day was going to even better than the one before was truly uplifting. We are already looking forward to next season so that we can return and stay even longer.

Friendly farm with a lot of activities

It is a very special place. And old farm transformed to a hotel. You have horse riding, mountain bicycles, hiking here. There are a lot of animals in this area. We loved all the staff: Paula, Leo, waitress in the restaurant, chef, thank you for your care about us, you made this stay great. Breakfast was very good, really nice. Horse riding was awesome.

A truly unique experience!!!

This is a truly unique place! unbeatable views of Fitz Roy from the accommodation. All the staff are amazing and you will truly feel at home. Everyone went out of their way to make you feel welcome. The horse riding is highly recommended and the gaucho a very good guide and an amazing campfire cook! Only beaten by the chef preparing your dinners: intimate, regional, creative, truly amazing!!! Overall: if you look for a unique experience in the Fitz Roy area, love good food, love the outdoors, love horses, love good people, love a fire and and a cabin: This is the place to be!!!! (And if you would have a problem during your stay (I doubt it), Paula and Fernanda will take of it)
