Fodor's Expert Review Estancia La Madrugada
Off Camino de Yameo, San Antonio de Areco, Buenos Aires, Argentina Fodor's Choice
Just a few minutes from San Antonio de Areco takes you from town to the vastness of the Pampas ... and this absolute charmer of a boutique estancia. Estancia La Madrugada pulls off a magical balance of rusticity and elegance, the worn reflection of the region and its past and a stylish, comfortable hospitality. An all-inclusive stay will leave you relaxed; the locale, enamored; the expertly prepared food and cocktails, deeply satisfied; and the genuinely warm staff, enchanted. Go for brisk horse ride with the British owner, who's every bit a gaucha, or laze by the enormous swimming pool set within an idyllic landscape. With only three gracefully appointed rooms available, book well in advance.
