    Amazing location and equally amazing staff. A very special place due the combination of the two.

    The staff, the food, the room, the view, the hike... Perfect way to end our time in Patagonia.

    Honestly, we're pretty chill, outdoors people so nothing stood out as needs improvement. The restaurant was running out of wine by our 3d day, but that may have been due to us :) Maybe some yard games to play?

    Couldn't ask for a better way to spend the last few days in Patagonia. The staff was awesome, and we were blown away by the room for being off grid. If you're in to astrophotography, I literally just set up outside our room with enough range to take photos while warm in bed. Super epic.

    Need to watch where you step because animals roam free.

    Gives the feel of a working farm. The views of Mt FitzRoy are unmatched.

    The staff were the most friendly, caring and fun people. The food/restaurant was better than Michelin Star restaurant - every meal was amazing.

    We booked the red house originally ( we didn’t Relais) and it was a little worn down and far from the main area.

    It was a beautiful getaway for our family! The staff was amazing, food was delicious and the activities were great!

    Unbeatable views in a secluded location make you feel like you've found a gem.

    The property is very secluded, requiring a ride from town to a swinging bridge (where you'll be toting your own belongings) to another car. If you're pressed for time or require wifi, this is not the location for you!

    Set off on its own with no other facilities around, this place is really set deep in nature. Right up against the Fitz Roy range, the views are unbeatable! The dinner service was spectacular too - though a more robust wine list would be appreciated!

    Nothing to improve on - a true 11 out of 10 experience!

    Estancia Bonanza is truly a slice of heaven on earth! I had expected good things but never thought it would be one of the best experiences ever. The staff was exceptional - they truly made us feel like part of their family and that they genuinely cared about our comfort. As for the estancia itself, waking up and seeing the glacier on Mt. Fitzroy every morning and knowing that each day was going to even better than the one before was truly uplifting. We are already looking forward to next season so that we can return and stay even longer.

    Actually food for lunch and dinner is not always good. Maybe we needed to negotiate more, but i didnt want to make chef do smth special for me, i wanted to try what they suggest and in 50% cases it was not tasty and you have no more choice because there isn't a menu to choose (only in advance you can ask smth). Water in shower is not hot, if you wait some time, after cold, you will receive warm water. When you don't lighten fireplace its really cold in the room.

    It is a very special place. And old farm transformed to a hotel. You have horse riding, mountain bicycles, hiking here. There are a lot of animals in this area. We loved all the staff: Paula, Leo, waitress in the restaurant, chef, thank you for your care about us, you made this stay great. Breakfast was very good, really nice. Horse riding was awesome.

    This is a truly unique place! unbeatable views of Fitz Roy from the accommodation. All the staff are amazing and you will truly feel at home. Everyone went out of their way to make you feel welcome. The horse riding is highly recommended and the gaucho a very good guide and an amazing campfire cook! Only beaten by the chef preparing your dinners: intimate, regional, creative, truly amazing!!! Overall: if you look for a unique experience in the Fitz Roy area, love good food, love the outdoors, love horses, love good people, love a fire and and a cabin: This is the place to be!!!! (And if you would have a problem during your stay (I doubt it), Paula and Fernanda will take of it)

    While great for someone who wants to completely disconnect, some people, including myself, don't have that luxury, so the lack of internet or phone is my only true complaint.

    Every staff member was great and incredibly helpful. Location is pristine and beautiful and hotel is absolutely unique.

    The most fabulous place ever! But at a price, for sure!

    It wasn't really clear what exactly I was signing up for from the Booking.com site. It said 'all-inclusive' but I didn't really understand. Thankfully it was a place that suited me perfectly - but might not well suit others who think they will be getting a 5* hotel amenities experience for that money!

    Absolutely unbeatable location with the MOST stunning views ever and quietly set amid plains, mountains, rivers and woodland. The buildings were beautiful inside but spartan as there was no electricity, wifi and hot water takes 5 minutes to arrive. All of this is great - but it's good to know. The activities were excellent and there were huge efforts made to accommodate my desired activities - the staff really going out of the way and nothing was ever a problem. The food was top class and the ambience in the kitchen / dining cabaña was wonderful with the views and traditional music played. The nicest part was the atmosphere created by the staff - exceptionally dedicated and warm and beyond helpful.

    the huts were too basic, for example neither heating not insulation. strong wind was able to blow through cracks in the wooden walls, including dust blowing inside

    unusual location with great staff and great activities and fantastic foood and great activities very remote, gives you an experience out of civilisation
