This is a ranch, so I can forgive it the animal waste and mud everywhere. However it is also a place where people are paying quite a hefty price to lodge so there are certain standards. For example, when a thunderstorm rolls through and the lights go out, don't come by with candlesticks for me to light... is it too... More

Our stay at the Estancia was lovely. It was a short trip from the city and gave my family the opportunity to relax and enjoy the last days of our vacation. The intimate setting made us feel as if we owned the place and we had the freedom to do whatever we wanted. Loved the horse riding adventure with the... More

We stayed for 3 nights at this Estancia. We booked it several months in advance, and decided to end our trip to South American here, to wind down before we headed home. A lot of the reviews that have recently been posted about the Estancia are absolutely accurate, but were written after we booked and paid a deposit. We were... More

This place is a complete flop. The website is completely misleading. It is NOT a traditional Argentine estancia by any means -- more like an unattractive homestead in barren Oklahoma with an odd assortment of animals the owners like to call their pets. The entire homestead is run by a live-in family totalling 10 kids, none of whom have had... More

I would recommend against staying at the estancia, particularly in the winter. The grounds were muddy and unwalkable and littered with animal feces. The food was nothing special, and the owners were hardly there, leaving a family (who were nice enough and tried hard) to run a place full of guests. If you want to ride horses, I would suggest...

My husband and I had originally booked for two nights, however after just 20 minutes of arriving we were desperate to leave. After informing the owners "it wasn't really what we were looking for" we checked out the next morning. The website is completely misleading ... we just wish we had read the trip advisor reviews before we booked. This... More

The estancia was our first stop in our trip to Argentina with three little kids (5, 3, and 1). It was a wonderful beginning to our vacation. The owner picked us up, as promised, and brought us to the estancia where lunch was waiting for us. It was excellent bbq along with salad, the freshest tomatoes we've had in a... More

I read about this Estancia in Frommer's book and the Estancia was a complete waste of a day and a complete rip off ! I was so embarassed because I planned this event and told my parents it would be amazing. First, we were picked up in a beat up car by the female owner and her daughter and my... More

We were looking not for a touristy, spa estancia of which there seem to be loads around BA, but a simple authentic estancia where we could relax, do some riding and feel what life was like outside the city and that is EXACTLY what we got. It is the most beautiful, relaxed setting and we were looked after brilliantly by... More

I didn't have the negative experience that some people have written about here. My husband and I arrived at Estancia El Cencerro after a long flight and relaxed and did very little while there- which was great! We did do some horseback riding, which was confined to a small area and the mosquitos were bad down by the creek (oh... More
