Review

Our pick of the properties outside of Salta, Finca Valentina provides the perfect mix of being able to explore the city and still come away and relax in peaceful surroundings. With horse riding, cooking classes, mountain biking and trips to explore the local ruta del vino all readily available, you can easily spend a few days at the Finca without getting bored. Owned by an Italian couple eager to share their passion for this area of Argentina, a stay here is a great introduction to this beautiful region of the country.

The hotel is set amongst the green hills and agricultural lands to the southwest of Salta. It’s an easy 25-minute drive away from the centre of the city and just 15 minutes away from the airport.

The Italian owners have kept the original layout of the property, which still feels very much like a family home. In the main house you’ll find an open plan living and dining room and cosy kitchen where the local staff cook up freshly baked pastries and empanadas. Breakfast is served on the pretty patio looking out over the gardens and swimming pool.

There are 8 rooms in total; 4 standard rooms, 3 superior rooms with private patios and one second-floor deluxe suite, which has a private terrace with views out over the mountains. Rooms are light and airy and are decorated with intricately woven textiles and one-off pieces of furniture sourced from the local area or brought back from family trips to Brazil and Bolivia.

The service at Finca Valentina is intentionally informal so guests are invited to go into the kitchen for anything they need and chat with the local ladies who run the hotel in the owners’ absence. There are also three gentle labs that laze around in the gardens and plenty of outdoor games like croquet and badminton to keep families entertained.

Home from home, value for money
