Hotel Puerto Valle

WHY WE LIKE THIS HOTEL

Centered around a historic estancia and former cattle ranch dating back to 1868, Puerto Valle has been beautifully refurbished and sits at the heart of a magnificent 14 hectare private park, home to native and exotic species. The hotel offers fully inclusive stays with daily excursions into the Ibera wetlands accompanied by expert naturalist guides. Each day, guests can hike, ride, fish and take boat trips to experience the magnificent wildlife which boasts over 350 bird species as well as maned wolf, pampa deer, capybara and caiman. Once back at the lodge, you can relax around the pool, bird-watch from the comfort of your hammock, explore the park or pick a book from the library. Wildlife aside, the hotel prides itself on its cuisine and focuses on regional flavours using fresh local ingredients such as river fish, tropical fruits and local herbs picked from the hotel’s organic garden. Elegant, comfortable with excellent service, the Hotel Puerto Valle is an ideal base from which to explore Ibera. True it may not be as remote as other lodges but its position on the edge of the reserve close to the airport avoids long, bumpy journeys and gives easy access to both Iguazu Falls and the Jesuit ruins of Misiones Province.
