If there’s one way to experience Patagonia, it’s staying at a secluded estancia with far-reaching views of the empty, wild, captivating landscape and no signs of civilization for miles. That’s precisely what you’ll find at Eolo. This tasteful boutique lodge is studded in the heart of a 10,000-acre estate, where the soul-stirring shapes of the vast Patagonian steppe can be viewed from the rooms, restaurants, and relaxation areas. Yet the region’s highlights—the Andes Mountains, Lago Argentino, and the glaciers El Perito Moreno and Uppsala—are also within easy reach. Friendly staff are on hand to make you feel at home in the extraordinarily sublime setting of Eolo, whether serving you a lip-smacking Argentine meal with paired wine, or leading you on a guided adventure through the wilderness.
Each room is blessed with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the lake, cordillera, or Patagonian steppe unfolding into the distance, so you can while away the hours admiring your pristine surrounds. The neutral hues inside let the sublime view do all the talking, and the purposeful lack of televisions also encourages you to connect with the wild outdoors. Your abode includes a handful of mod-cons such as cloud-like beds, heating, Wi-Fi, large tubs, and sofas or armchairs for you to relax in while soaking up those cinematic vistas. There are three room types to choose from: Superior, Premium or Corner, the latter being the largest and with panoramic views from double windows.
All gourmet cuisine and drinks are covered during your stay at Eolo, as well as many activities—guided and unaccompanied. The top highlights of this hotel include:
As well as exploring the vast estate in the company of an expert Eolo guide, be sure to take a moment alone and contemplate this bewitching landscape.
