    As the breakfast is brought to the room, there could be a table with chairs that are more comfortable eating in. My father has some limitations and for him was complicated eating in the low chair and table.

    The location is perfect if you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the wonderful views. Me and my mom really enjoyed biking around with the bikes provided by the hotel. The rooms are big and have a good structure. The breakfast is brought to the room the day before, and it was really good.

    This is an excellent base from which to explore the area. We didn’t make much use of the properties catering/winetasting. But this was because we enjoyed our time exploring the local area.

    Nothing comes to mind to improve in our experience here.

    From the very moment we arrived, we were treated like family. The rooms were modern, and incredibly well equipped, and breakfast was exceptional, delivered the night before. Rooms had excellent showers, fully equipped with a fridge and all the basics. The wine tasting was outstanding and we could tell this family owned bodega is loved as much by the owner Maria as us guests.

    This was a special birthday treat, but even so, the price was much higher than anywhere else we stayed in three countries in South America. We had wine in our room but no pricelist, 2 bottles were 52$ US

    Stunning location , beautiful rooms. We also booked a wine tour and parilla and enjoyed the food and wine. Very peaceful.

    Didnt like we only had time to stay 2 nights.

    A perfect location. Vineyard, long very long tasting and BBQ lunch were excellent. Accommdation just as described, boxed breakfast delicious. Perfect for a romantic getaway. We stayed over Xmas and enjoyed the peace and amazing sunsets. It is a small boutique vineyard with only 3 wines but well worth the tasting. If youre reading this, dont hesitate book immediately.

    Not a big thing, as the overall experience is wonderful. But just note that the breakfast is pre-prepared and delivered the night before, as the winery doesn't open until 11am. For the price, it might have included a few more fresh items (rather than standard store bread, for example).

    This was a beautiful, comfortable, and above all tranquil place to spend a couple nights while exploring the lovely area around Carmelo. I especially enjoyed being able to have a place to crash after enjoying a long, leisurely wine tasting and lunch at the winery itself. (Do treat yourself to this experience, if you stay!)

    I had an amazing experience at El Legado. The wine tasting was awesome as well as the parrillada (BBQ). The staff is extremely friendly and hospitable and I'm sure Bernardo's "legado" is being kept going by his family and friends.

    Rooms are new and very stylish. The view is beautiful and calming. There is a dulce gusto coffee machine and complementary capsules in the room. We very positively surprised to find an air conditioner in the bathroom, it's not very common. Breakfast was delicious and generous. It was brought night before in a beautiful box which was actually really convenient because we could have it at any time.

    El Legado was better than expected! It was the first stop of our honeymoon and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to start our trip. We stayed in a beautiful room overlooking the vineyard. Fede was an amazing host and we were greeted with the best bbq ever and the most incredible selection of red wines - they definitely set the bar for food and wine because nothing else came close in Carmelo. Bikes are offered with every room so you can cycle to the nearby vineyards and restaurants. Thank you so much for having us, we’ll definitely be back in the future!!
