We stayed here for three days to attend our friends’ wedding which was held at the property’s polo club. Everything throughout the weekend was exceptional. The room was beautiful and comfortable, the grounds are EXTRAORDINARY - as good or better than any estancia I’ve visited in Argentina, the food at both the hotel and the wedding venue was delicious, staff very kind. Really nothing to criticize....

It is one of the best places to visit in Cordoba, Argentina. We stayed in Rocá, next to the restaurant and with a cute of their golf course. Turning around the corner and you can see the pond with clear water and beautiful nature. The place is old but well maintained and has some historical significance. Staff are well trained and super friendly. Food is incredible, and their Sunday brunch is a fe...

In a word, fantastic. Great food, great golf, incredible rooms, but the best thing about this resort is the staff. Very rare to find staff that are so friendly and helpful. We were a group of 30+. No Spanish speakers but it didn't matter.

Beautiful restaurant. The scenery is off the charts, a well maintained country house from the 1800s. The menu looked amazing, with several options. I had tortellinis, lamb pie and caramel mousse. I really enjoyed the three of them. The service was very kind and attentive. I highly recommend this premium culinary experience on a nice sunny day so you can take a stroll around the park after lunch.

We visited in September 2018 as a group of 12 golfers. The golf course is exciting, well maintained and reasonably priced. The staff were very helpful and considerate. A restful and relaxing location, definitely worth a visit.
