Llao Llao Resort, Golf & Spa

Spread over the vast grassy lakefront, Llao Llao resort features predominantly Alpine-style décor with plenty of exposed beams, polished log walls, fireplaces and antler-esque chandeliers. The hotel grounds are carefully manicured and perfect for relaxed strolls, while the infinity indoor-outdoor heated pool is the ideal spot for dreamy views of Mount Tronador. When it comes to dining, you’re guaranteed to find just what you’re in the mood for with five (yes, FIVE) different restaurants to choose from, all offering delicious options for different palettes. There is no shortage of fine Argentinian wines either.

The Bustillo wing, Llao Llao’s signature building, houses 162 rooms, 11 studios and 12 suites overlooking the Moreno and Nahuel Huapi lakes, Cerro Moreno or the gardens. While there are different room types to choose from, they all convey the resort’s historical heritage and have a cosy, mountain-lodge vibe. The more modern Moreno wing, built in 2007, blends the classic Llao Llao style with contemporary Patagonian design and houses 43 deluxe studios and suites with terraces, all facing beautiful Lake Moreno and Mount Tronador. Finally, those looking for extra privacy will love the Moreno lake cabin, which has two bedrooms and bathrooms, a living room with a fireplace and even a cute deck to enjoy the views.

Where to begin? Llao Llao Resort has something for every traveller - and more. Sports enthusiasts can golf 18 holes with some pretty special vistas, or head to the tennis court or fitness centre for a bit more action, whilst outdoorsy guests can go mountain biking or hiking on the trails criss-crossing the peninsula. If the weather is good, the resort’s marina is the place to go for water sports - from kayaking to windsurfing - and if you’re looking for something a bit different, how about a spot of archery? And parents, worry not: the resort offers group activities for kids throughout the day so you can enjoy some time off too.
