A Relais & Chateaux property just outside of the charming town of Villa la Angostura. Recommended if you want something different from Bariloche and want to combine activities with the perfect surroundings to relax and pamper yourself.
Las Balsas has made an art form of hospitality for more than 25 years. Every one of the ten beautifully designed rooms looks out over water; as do both the bar and fine dining restaurant where guests are served an exquisite Patagonian-inspired menu designed by the resident chef, paired with fine Argentine wine from the impressive wine cellar.
The hotel’s Relais Châteaux status combined with their B Corp (Sistema B) credentials makes them a unique offering with world class service, facilities and comfort combined with an admirable focus on sustainability including a deep commitment to conservation.
