Alta Vista
Formerly a private residence, the Alta Vista Estancia offers seven guest rooms in the midst of a 60,000 Hectare currently functioning sheep ranch. The farm, built in the 1920's, is both charming and breathtaking, with sweeping views of the Patagonian country-side and beautifully landscaped fruit gardens. Guests have the option of exploring the premises using a variety of relaxing methods, including horse-back riding, hiking by foot, and mountain biking.

Alta Vista is located on the route from El Calafate to Puerto Bandera; the starting point for cruises to the Onelli and Upsala Glaciers and the viewpoint for the majestical Perito Moreno Glacier. It is just 30km away from the El Calafate airport and is accessible year-round.

Amenities at Alta Vista include a humble yet cozy dining facility, welcoming lounge, and casual bar overlooking a well kept garden vista. The hospitality provided is noted as "second-to-none" and visitors consistently admire the customer service and comfort that they receive during their stays.

Estancia Alice
Just fifteen minutes outside of El Calafate, the Estancia Alice is both picturesque and warm, providing guests with one of sixteen available private rooms. As it is located on the shores of the Lago Argentino, the estancia room views of the lake are unbeatable, featuring peaceful waters in the foreground and vast mountain ranges in the background. Furthermore, the hospitality and small touches provided by the bilingual staff will undoubtedly make your stay unforgettable. From the farm dogs that will accompany you on casual hike around the premises to the homemade desserts and jams that await as you dine at the estancia's cozy restaurant, no detail is left un attended.

Should you choose to stay at the Estancia Alice, don't miss the spectacularly unique El Galpon Ranch Show. This expedition explores all of the history and culture that the farm has to offer, through sheep shearing demonstrations, trekking along the "Laguna de los Pajaros, and explorations of ancient Indian campgrounds. The trip concludes with a traditional patagonic lamb barbeque overlooking the Lago Argentino.

Additional amenities included in your stay consist of private bathrooms for each guest room and complementary shuttles to the town of El Calafate.

Estancia Eolo
This lodge, featuring seventeen spectacular guest suites, is conveniently located in the La Anita Valley just thirty minutes from El Calafate on the way to the Perito Moreno Glacier. On the eastern side of Mount Fritas, the lodge provides immaculate views of both Lago Argentino and Torres del Paine. The ample and new built facility is situated on a 3,000 hectare segment of property, providing a comfortable and somewhat secluded stay for each guest that passes through.

Each suite is prepared to offer you a comfortable stay at the estancia, with private bedrooms, siting rooms, and bathrooms. Additionally, bathrobes, central heating, and local and international phone service are provided within the rooms.
