I can't believe it's taken me this long to write this review for my stay here over Xmas. It really is hard to do it justice in writing so I have been putting it off....but not anymore! This estancia is so so beautiful.....5km down a bumpy track into the middle of countryside with the Andes in the backdrop. Then you... More

I've started writing this review a number of times, and each time I tried, I would not be able to finish because I wanted to write about every single amazing detail. This time, I will try to keep it simple. In all our travels, we have not yet come across an establishment which was as beyond our expectations as El... More

A few months ago, my friends and I visited the Estancia El Puesto. The beautiful drive to the Estancia winds through the Valle del Uco and into the heart of Mendoza Wine Country. The view is picturesque and is unparalleled elsewhere in Mendoza. The bus turned off the paved road onto a dirt road, and we all knew we were... More

My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights at the Estancia El Puesto during our 14-day trip to Argentina. It was one of the highlights of our stay. While other reviewers have mentioned it, I want to confirm that the accommodations are very rustic. Having said that, the remainder of the experience cannot be matched. The views are breathtaking, the gauchos... More

Don Raul Labat is the host of all hosts... I booked (very last minute) in to El Puesto, and was lucky enough to find myself in the company of one of the world's last true gentlemen. From the personal airport pick up, to sharing a meal (more on that soon), and organising anything I wanted, Raul ensured my stay was... More

2 friends and I crossed the Andes with Raul, a small group of other guests and 5 gauchos. With the pack train of mules and riding horse there were close to thirty horses in our remuda. The first days ride, on the trail of St. Martin, led us through a portico that is quaintly called a pass in that region:... More

My friend and I stayed one night at the estancia towards the end of November 2012. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will remember forever! Raul is the owner of the estancia and picks you up roadside in a 4x4 truck, dressed in traditional gaucho gear. You drive along a bumpy dirt road for about 20 minutes, venturing deep... More

We were a party of five guys on a bucket list tour of Argentina and ranching in the foothills of the Andes was definitely part of that. You get 16 days rain in Mendoza every year and we had two of them, on El Puesto we didn;t even notice it. We were picked up in 4x4's from our hotel in... More
