We stayed here in January and were quite disappointed with our stay. The ranch is one and a half hour drive from El Calafate on a rough road and all day trips require three hour return trip. Service was hap hazard and it was difficult to find information on prebooked trips. Horse riding on the ranch was amazing but was... more

My wife and I spent two of our four nights in the Calafate area in mid-February at Nibepo Aike. We stayed at the much less expensive Hosteria Kau Kaleshen in Calafate itself for the first two nights because we arrived by plane in the evening and spent the entire next day visiting the Perito Moreno glacier (for which trekking on... more

I Stayed at EOLO and Estancia Nibepo AIke in Calafate (as well as Del Pilar and La Quinta in Chalten, and visited Los Nostros and Los Cerros), and this was my top pick of all of them! While the others were lovely too, this was situated right on Lago Argentino, had the most dramatic views and was a spot that... more

We spent a wonderful 2 days here. Service is warm, the facilities charming, and the location stunning. The other reviews - and the pictures on their own website - tell the tale on this. The rates are good for the location. You'll see on their website that you can book the all-inclusive package or half-board, paying for extras on the... more

We were lucky enough to spend Christmas 2007 at Nibepo Aike, which happily coincided with some fantastic summer weather. We participated fully in the Noche Buena meal in the Quincho on 24th December (extra sparkling wine, and many of the unseen kitchen staff, appeared at midnight to wish us all well) and we had a memorable parilla lunch on 25th... more

We did not stay but went out for a day trip. I was concerned that it would be a tourist thing but it was great. We go to ride horses and it was not your normal trail ride. I have been riding for years and we climb the horses way up a steep hill behind the ranch to take in... more

Located 1h far from ugly city of El Calafate, this beautiful property is a must ! You really feel the nature here, as there are NO neighbours around... only Patagonia and yourself !!! Nibepo Aike is a farm, from where you can see Perito Moreno Glacier, mountains, beautiful lakes... Food is very good, rooms are so comfortable, staff is the... more

Estancia Nibepo Aike is in a lovely location, 1 1/2 hours (partly by dirt road) from the El Calafate airport. We really felt we were experiencing an Argentinian estancia: a true family ranch; gauchos working the sheep, cattle, and horses; lamb on the spit for dinner; small group of guests in the old family home; remote enough to be far... more

This was my return visit to the property, and given that everyone else who was staying there this time based their decision (at least in part) on the tripadvisor reviews, I figured I ought to write a comprehensive review. First of all, you should know that the setting of the Estancia is spectacular. Beautiful snow-capped mountains, lush vegetation, a picture-postcard... more
