Experience our Argentinean dream

Come and discover the Estancia El Colibri at the foot of the Sierras de Córdoba in Santa Catalina. This charming house is a member of Relais & Châteaux and a real symbol of the Argentine dream of Stéphanie and Raoul Fenestraz. With its dark wood floors, colonial style and antique furniture, it is above all a charming hotel, inspired by the Argentine estancias of the early 20th century, but the call of the great outdoors is omnipresent. Enjoy horseback riding, polo lessons or lazing by the pool before delicious gourmet moments, with the Asado, the famous Argentine barbecue, as the finale…

Guestbook

  • A Gracious Escape The estancia sits prettily on a rise, commanding a beautiful view of the surrounding countryside. The grounds are meticulously maintained though they are not formal. In fact the property is very tranquil. The hotel is newly built in the style of yore. The comfortable guest rooms are beautifully designed and quite lovely. I have nothing but praise for the staff. To a one, they are pleasant and helpful. They anticipate and satisfy one's needs often before the need even arises. One is free to do as much or as little as you like. Programs offered are varied enough to entertain any visitor. In particular, children are treated like the little princes and princesses that they are, resulting in a great deal of happiness and laughter. The chef is especially accomplished. And because much of the food is sourced on the home farm, meals reflect the best and freshest of the season. The dining room is not open to the public so if you want to check it out you will need to check in.

  • This is an amazing estancia (ranch) just 45 minutes for the Cordoba AR (COR) airport. Cordoba is the second largest city in Argentina, but you're definitely well out in the country. We scheduled our stay (5 nights) to "unwind" from an active hiking/biking trip in the Lakes District in northern Patagonia. We made the right call. The people and service couldn't be better, the location is awesome and the activities are excellent. We've ridden horses every day, under the watchful care of Maxi, our gaucho. The horseback riding is incredible among the pampas, with hills in the distance. Tomorrow we're riding for a picnic along the river.

  • It’s one of the best hotels in the world, where every guest is treated as a family.

  • A dream that the Fenestraz family has made a reality We started coming to El Colibri in 2011; it is now our thirteenth visit. We fell in love with the serenity, harmony and inherent natural beauty of this place, coupled with a delightful staff that is willing to do whatever it takes to enhance your experience. El Colibri brings together an international clientele that can enjoy a true taste of Argentina. The Fenestraz have created Shangri-La in Argentina...come and experience.
