Having spent a wonderful night at this small, "luxury" ranch resort several years ago, I was reluctant to return and risk the possibility that it would not live up to my memories. I needn't have worried. We returned for two nights at the end of November, and enjoyed every moment. The food is superb. Paulo,the chef, is a master. One... More

What is the word for perfect in Spanish? From the moment war arrived until we left everything was handled perfectly. Graciela and her staff are sure to make your stay an incredible experience. If you are looking for great estancia to stay at then this is the one. Would go back in a heart beat

If you love horses, great food and luxurious accommodations, then El Charabon is the place to go! Loved every minute, from galloping on the beach to herding cattle to snuggling under a comfy duvet at night. Very friendly owners and staff. Will definitely return.

What a truly fabulous place! I had what felt like a 2 room appartment to my self, with a blissfully comfortable bed, overlooking the pretty garden - all very clean, nicely done and geared towards utmost comfort for travellers...much appreciated if you're going to spend a fair amount of time in the saddle! The meals were always beautifully presented and... More

Its a working cattle and sheep farm and you can ride out with the Gaucho - really friendly,... More

Bruno's food was fantastic - definitely gourmet! Fernando the gaucho wasvery attentive and always asking if everything was ok. I did some cattle herding and one on one ride, one... More

We stayed at El Charabon for 2 days in February. This was the end of a 17 day trip to South America and was the highlight of our vacation. We had done city, rainforest and beach but were missing a ranch and we found this place. We had the whole place to ourselves in splendid isolation. Graciela is a charming... More

We just went to El Charabón for 3 days as part of our 1 week trip to Uruguay. I have to say this was the BEST part of the trip. The estancia is BEAUTIFUL, incredible views of the country, SUPER friendly and attentive service, INCREDIBLE food (that was quite a nice surprise!), and very relaxing atmosphere. We rode the horses... More
