Eolo is a small (17-room) specialty lodge located about 30 minutes outside of El Calafate. It is called "Spirit of Patagonia", and I have to say, it does capture that. Perched high on a hill with panoramic views of the lake, the estancia on which it's located (Estancia Alice), the "big sky country" desert plateaus and mountain peaks beyond. One... More

I stayed in Eolo from the 2nd to the 5th of January 2012 The days spent in your hotel have been within the best in my life: the location, the hotel, the room, the restaurant, the excursions, and especially the staff, everything was perfectly set, in order to provide a fantastic experience. Rooms are big, and well furnished, common areas... More

Stunning hotel (except for the small pool). Unique/ relaxing view. Our biggest complain was about the service at the restaurant. It was so slow that didn't allow us to enjoy our meals. You would ask twice for a glass of wine and they will bring it well after the starters. Many of the guests shared our view and given the... More

Agree very stunning location and great staff and food (except for breakfast - no muesli and only weary scrambled eggs and bacon). The rooms were nice but didn't like the fact that there was no a/c. ("open a window") and the heating (centrally, not individually controlled) was on at about 30c. Stifling. Our room (no.5) was on the ground floor... More

My husband and I had a fantastic couple of days at Eolo in early January. Everything was superlative, from the stunning location and view, to the comfortable and relaxing rooms and common areas, to the exquisite food and warm hospitality. Rather than echo what many others have already said, I have two suggestions for those considering staying at Eolo -... More

Stayed at Estancia EOLO just before Xmas. The moment you walk past check-in and into the lobby salon the view hits you and you can't speak for a few moments! Wow. What a place. Couldn't see another structure for miles. Just the steppe, Lake Argentina, a few cattle and a giant valley encased by mountains. This hotel is quite expensive... More

We stayed in two very different hotels in the El Calafate area: Eolo and Hosteria Alta Vista. Both were were well outside of Calafate and both were visible from the other across the great expanse of the Anita Valley. While entirely different, we enjoyed both immensely. Eola was luxury... the rooms were spacious with modern amenities and un-parraleled views. The... More

Really professional and attentive staff - who managed to do things for you before you had even asked! eg. They phoned the local Hertz office in El Calafate to ensure that our booked reservation was in order for us to collect next day. And when they took us to the rental car office the driver waited to make sure we... More

Beautiful hotel in the middle of Patagonian wilderness. Views are stunning, the restaurant serves delightful food, the hotel is nice and warm and tastefully decorated in elegant Patagonian style... but that's not what makes the hotel most memorable. What does is service and staff's attention. As another reviewer mentioned, they excel at solving problems. In my case, it was a... More
