Review

Certainly the best of the properties around the Esteros, the Rincon del Socorro is loosely based around the concept of an estancia, with a series of buildings dispersed around the main building which has the dining area and relaxing areas. The buildings themselves have a veranda area that runs along the outside of the building where it is possible to shelter from the summer heat. Overall this is definitely our recommendation.

While the rooms and general layout of the Rincon del Socorro is fairly simple, this is service and accommodation of the highest order. As mentioned above, the lodge is loosely based on an Estancia concept, but the real beauty in the lodge is the fact that it owns the territory around it. Lying on the firm land that lies on the very border with the wetlands, this means that there is always an abundance of animals and activity in the immediate vicinity.

The rincon offers a really good range of activities that you can both organise with a guide (this is essential for the lake visit due to the number of birds), and also to go off and do for yourself. They have around 10 different horse rides that are possible, as well as many walks and bike rides. What is also quite interesting is to go out on a “night drive” that will allow you to see the numerous nocturnal animals in the area, and also to go and visit Arie who is a tame giant anteater that they have on the property and they are trying to re-introduce into the Esteros generally.

Superb nature location, great food/service, comfortable rooms
