Grace Cafayate, Cafayate, Argentina

Grace Cafayate

Vineyard
Northwest Argentina, Argentina

Located on the Estancia Cafayate, the Grace Hotel offers luxury accommodation, vineyards, stables, a golf course and spectacular scenery in the beautiful Calchaqui Valley. Choose from twenty villas, 2 Grace Suites or 10 deluxe rooms offering either a sunset or sunrise view.

In an area renowned for fine wines and exceptional dining, Grace Cafayate lives up to its reputation in this respect. On arrival you will be greeted with a bottle of the local Torrontes or Malbec and a plate of local artisan cheeses; in the evenings dine in ‘Muse by Jonathan Cartwright’, Grace’s fine dining restaurant and in the morning take a glass of sparkling wine with breakfast. After all this indulgence, you’ll be glad of the horse riding and hiking excursions for which Grace Cafayate is well known.

Why we like Grace Cafayate

From the first complimentary sip of Torrontes served with a plate of local artisan cheese on arrival to barbeques under the stars and sparkling wines with breakfast, a stay at Grace Cafayate is a haven for wine-lovers and truly indulgent experience for everyone else!

Activities

When not sampling fine wines and indulging in delicious gourmet meals, guests can try their hand at being a chef for the day, heading out on bicycles around Calchaqui, hiking through the foothills and horseback riding between vineyards. The spa and indoor pool provide respite from the heat of the day, while the 18-hole golf course and polo fields offer wonderful spaces for experiencing the variety of the countryside estate.
