An amazing vacation, in a beautiful setting in the pampas. From the personal attention from our hosts Marcos and Silke, to the incredible food (four times daily) to the polo ponies, learning to play with expert instruction and trail riding in the open farmland, everything is first class and a unique experience. The accommodations were lovely, many special touches and... More

My family stayed at La Sofia Polo estancia, owned by Silke and Marcos, for three nights late in December 2011. The accommodations are simple, clean and traditional. It isn't luxury; it's exactly what you'd want on an estancia. The luxury is in the service (perfect) and the food (fabulous). [My husband says it is luxury - rustic luxury.] If you... More

We came to la sofia estancia because our flight to El Calafate was cancelled and we needed to fill in 2 days of our holiday. Well this was much more than just a 'fill in' and we would recommend it as an integral part of anyone's holiday. The accommodation is lovely in a peaceful country setting with wild hares and... More

A visit to La Sofia was part of an extended trip to South America by my sister and I. It turned out to be the most unforgettable. We cannot praise the owners Marcos and Silke enough. We stayed 4 days and had the most exhilerating experience to date. Marcos provided a professional and extremely fun environment for us to learn... More

We spent two days and one night at this amazing estancia. The owners treated us like friends, we truly felt welcome and almost as if we were at home. The food was sooo good, with vegetables from their own garden! We could horseback ride as much as we wanted to. I really recommend this beautiful estancia. It is the perfect... More

We spend a memorable two nights of our honeymoon at La Sofia. It felt a privilage to stay at such a beautiful place and to be made so welcome by the family. The hosts were around but there was plenty of time to be alone. The food was fantastic with many of the vegetables coming from the owner's own garden.... More

We stayed on La sofia for ten days in late february 2011. We had booked seven days/nights with polo practice twice a day, and we liked it so much that we extended it for three more days. The place is magnificent with a good tranquil surrounding but still with close proximity to BA. Rooms are nice, cozy and clean and... More

Me and my husband have stayed at La Sofia for three nights - and we have before hardly ever slept so well, eaten so well and relaxed so well...
