Initially, we were very impressed with Estancia La Cinacina. They arranged our pickup to the estancia from Buenos Aires (although they were 40 minutes late), and brought us to the estancia. The estancia is very nice, the personnel were helpful, the food was good, the horse back riding was enjoyable. However, the tour guide (or tour bus driver), both employees... more

The hotel itself is really nice. The grounds are lovely. We had wonderful service the entire time we were there (in contrast to another review). At the same time, we were there just at the start of the season. The area is very rural and best known for its polo activities. Polo season appears to be from September through December,... more

We spent two nights at La Cinacina during our trip to Buenos Aires, it was a welcome contrast to the hustle-bustle of the city. Highly recommend a stay at this estancia, we had a wonderful time!! The property is beautiful and peaceful, rooms are rustic, clean, very comfortable beds/bathrooms, woodfire fireplaces. The location is ideal, quiet but clost to San... more

Just 115 km outside Buenos Aires you'll find this Estancia in San Antonio de Areco and La CinaCina is worth the drive. It was the perfect stop for our honeymoon. During the day CinaCina treats you to empanadas and drinks, a dance music and dance show, meat from a big barbeque, horse riding and a equestrian games. And just about... more

Arriving after a stressful conference in Mar del Plata, we entered a world of peace & tranquility. Best part of my whole 2 week trip in Argentina! David & Maria made me feel like family; Raquel created FANTASTIC meals, the staff met every need. I've never had a fireplace in my bedroom before, but what a way to fall asleep,... more

My wife and I and a friend stayed at this extancia September 22-23, 2008. It was an oasis in the middle of a flurry. The staff were very helpful, the food was FANTASTIC, the transfer to and from Buenos Aires was flawless, the horseback riding gave us a close up viewof the pampas, and the gaucho show gave us a... more

I had an absolutely unforgettable polo experience at Don Augusto polo club. I had tried a little polo in Holland before, but was a complete novice. They treated me like royalty as it should be with the sport of kings! The accommodation is not like a five star hotel, but that does not matter. It´s very rural, country style. The... more

Located a short 3 hours from Buenos Aires, Estancia La Margarita offered us just the respite we were looking for after our time in the city. We were impressed by the beauty and serenity of the estancia and the surrounding area and truly enjoyed our time there. The charming old house has been lovingly restored and offers comfortable lodging in... more

This the largest zoo in the country and is very well-stocked. The site is large but with lots of tree to give shade and lots of seating it is ideal in summer to get out of the heat. I went in the Spring so the miniature train wasn't working but in summer you can take the lazy way and ride... more

I have used Tripadvisor for sometime to learn about places I will be traveling to. During this time I have never written a review until now. My wife, Nicole, and I stayed at La Margarita for two days. If you are the type of person that enjoys an authenic experience when you travel this is the place. David, the owner,... more

I stayed four nights at the Hermitage Hotel. After a long 5.5 hour bus ride from BA, I was hoping that the hotel would be nice and accomodating. The staff was friendly and attentive when I checked in and throughout the stay. The hotel itself has this ambiance from the 1920-30s. It first, it seemed a little confusing getting around... more

I spent 4 nights with a contingent of 1500 people attending a medical meeting in Mar del Plata. We had a booth and paid for 60 nights (md´s and nurses). Our experience in the hotel was not a worldwide 5*. I assume this was related to the incredible load of people that arrived in a few hours to the hotel... more

This is a very good choice in Mar del Plata. Is a hotel close to the "casino", the beach and to downtown. The service is friendly and also they have a valet parking caring your care in a private garage. From the ringporter to the manager, all they a very friendly people. more

Estancia La Margarita was our favorite part of our trip to Argentina! The location is just far away enough from BA (@ 4 hrs from BA center) to really feel like you're experiencing something new. The landscape is absolutely breath-taking with it's sea of endless moss green grass dotted with free range cattle. The estancia itself gets top marks on... more

Gran Hotel Continental saved my vacation!! Read on for all the details. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and plan to stay there again on my next trip. Here is my story.... The Upon my arrival in Mar Del Plata to visit friends I started out to find a hotel. My first night in the city was nearly a... more

My husband and I are from London and stayed at Juan Geronimo for 2 nights and 3 days over a long weekend in August. Right from the start, the owner Florencia was really kind and helpful. She responded to my request for information very quickly. She came to meet us at a bar one evening to give us more information... more

When Campo Alto opened last year, they decided to focus their menu basically on two items: pizza and empanadas. While admittedly I don't find their pizza all that special, their empanadas are delicious. I would venture to say that they are the best empanadas in the whole city (short of what might come out of your own kitchen). First off,... more

The Faro Quequén (Quequén Lighthouse) is actually located across the river from Necochea in the small city of Quequén. The lighthouse is situated on a piece of land that is slightly elevated from its surroundings, which makes for some nice photo opportunities as you approach the lighthouse (depending on how you arrive). The Argentine Navy owns the lighthouse, and there... more

We had the pleasure to stay at this hotel on August 2008. Even though the apartments were a little outdated, the staff went beyond their way to made us fell like home. mM wife and I still wonder how 3 youngsters not even in their 30's could accomodate every little request with a big, warm smile immediately, showing that they... more
