If you like to have your next vacation in a very special and unique hotel, with its own identity, instead of a big hotel chain, Grace Cafayate in Argentina is one of the most striking examples of that.

This boutique hotel is a rural getaway nestled among vineyards, offering exclusive services with distinct characteristics. Cafayate is a town in the province of Salta in the northwest of the country. The area is internationally recognized for its upland vineyards, which produce excellent grapes for wine production. But what makes it a dream city is the stunning mountain scenery, with multi-colored hills of towering heights.

Leveraging the benefits of the location and the rich cultural traditions of the area, the company built—in Cafayate—a beautiful tourist complex consisting of a luxury boutique hotel, tourist villas, and private condominiums complemented by a luxurious spa, first-class cuisine, a polo field, and a splendid golf course. The key to the service of Grace Cafayate is customization. When booking, guests receive a form where they can select all meals according to their individual tastes, their favorite aromas, and the comfort features of their rooms, as well as personal care products.

The decor and architecture of the resort are incorporated into the landscape, featuring luxurious buildings with rustic stone walls and furniture made with noble materials, such as solid wood and leather upholstery, all perfectly combined with all the latest technology.

The Grace suites measure 79 square meters (850 square feet), and all feature terraces of 18 square meters (193 square feet). They are delicately decorated with understated luxury, emphasizing the stunning panoramic views to the east and north, true postcard images of towering snow-capped mountains, and neat vineyards in the valleys.

For those who want more privacy—and a more homey feel—the available villas are small houses between 150 and 170 square meters (about 1600 to 1800 square feet) equipped with the hotel’s same level of luxury facilities. But, they also have a dining room, kitchen, and private sitting room, as well as relaxing terraces of 60 square meters (800 square feet).

This haven of total enjoyment could not be complete without a top-level cuisine from a restaurant that serves regional and international dishes, with special emphasis on the famous Argentine “asados” (grilled meats) and fine wines from local wineries. In fact, the resort features a wine bar with daily tastings individually designed for each of its guests.
