The staff was not so nice with us, we had an activity planned early in the morning and we passed by the breakfast area to grab somenthing but the girl in the kitchen refuses to give us a yogurt as we were 20 minutes earlier than the usual opening of the breakfast.

Beautiful place by the lake. Gorgeous views. The staff is amazing: friendly and attentive (making you feel special). But still feels like home. Amazing attention to details. Delicious food. Very comfortable immaculate rooms (with tea/coffee, I love that). Softest sheets on the bed. Big windows with those gorgeous views. Lovely horse ride for just me and my daughter. Very special stay.

“The highlight of our trip to Patagonia!”
Everything!! The location and views are so beautiful and could be seen from our room, which felt very special. Big room with an area to sit and relax. Everything was super clean and tastefully decorated. Staff are all so friendly and helpful! Nicole in particular was always on hand to help, and we enjoyed meeting Carlos in the evenings at the bar. Breakfast was a good selection of items, and meals at the restaurant were great too. We also did the horseriding and lunch experience which was something completely new for us - highly recommend!

“Great place to stay between El Calafate and El Chalten”
We stayed at this accommodation on our way from El Calafate to El Chalten. It was the best decision, because: the place stays on a beautiful lake Viedma, next to the La Leone river, so the views are fantastic here. If you are lucky and the weather is clear, you will see Fitz Roy and Torres mountains across the lake! The staff is amazing, helpful and friendly. There was a feeling, like you were staying at somebody’s rancho - there are a lot of nice and stylish details, there is a fireplace in the lobby, where is nice and cozy to observe all the beauties of the location! The breakfast was nice, the houses have 4 rooms each. Standard room is not that big, but you have more things to do in a leaving room of the house: tv, books, fireplace, kettle and everything for the tea/coffee.

“Estancia La Estela is a good place to relax and recharge on your travels.”
We stayed here after hiking in El Chalten. It was a good place to relax before heading down to Torres del Paine. I would suggest 1 or 2 nights. A highlight was the horse ride, with lunch cooked over the fire at a shelter near the lake. The rooms are comfortable and there is a main lounge area with a beautiful view. There are books, board games, a pool table and a bar. The restaurant serves good dinners and breakfast was included. All staff were very friendly and helpful.

“Beautiful Estancia on the lake”
It is located in a beautiful setting on Lake Viedma. It is exactly as you see on the photos - a hidden getaway surrounded by nature. Unfortunately we only stayed one night and didn’t make the most of the activities that they also have an offer. The staff were extremely nice and helpful and made us feel very special! We had a late check in and they were sooo accommodating. They even left a few empanadas in the kitchen for us because we arrived so late that we missed dinner. Very very thoughtful! It has that lovely personal touch that you just don’t get in the generic big hotels! Would 100 percent recommend and one day when we come back to Patagonia, I would definitely stay here again!
