If you’re craving a taste of the real Patagonia, then this isolated base won’t disappoint. It’s a superb choice for exploring the wilderness of the region. However, do note that the hotel is typically only open from October to April.
Stay at EOLO
Step into a luxury hideaway that is at one with nature, offering authentic Patagonia to any guest who stays. EOLO is a 10,000 acre estate wrapped in old-school elegance, with timeless interiors and magical vistas over vast plains.An awe-inspiring sunrise in bed begins your day, followed by solitary walks across one of the world’s most thrilling regions. Move from wonder to wonder, encountering wild horses, native flora and pristine glacial lakes. Sensory overload culminates as you sample local flavours, sat across from the Andean mountain range. Later, browse an all-Argentine wine list from your bathtub, getting even more intimate with the landscapes as they change to twilight tones.
Location
With El Calafate Airport 30 minutes away in one direction, and Los Glaciares National Park in the other, EOLO supplies the best of both worlds. It’s a remote Patagonian stay bereft of the long drives, with views as remarkable as you’d imagine at every turn.
Rooms
Each of the 17 rooms here are different, though they share elegant furnishings and refined colours. Interiors also boast antique statement pieces, but for the most part let nature do the talking. Meanwhile, spectacular Patagonia vistas begin from your bed.
Who is it for
Families with children over 12 are welcome, however there’s no denying this is a rather grown-up den. As such, couples and small groups are most suited.
Facilities & activities
Alongside the sauna and heated indoor pool, guests have a wide range of experiences at their disposal, from mountain biking, horse riding and kayaking to fishing, bird watching and ice trekking. Finally, the restaurant is perhaps the best in the region, serving innovative recipes and simply divine views.
