Finca Valentina

0 1 2 3 4

Just a short drive from the Salta airport and within half-an-hour of the city, this charming rural hotel is ideally suited to those with a car seeking a quiet base from which to explore Salta’s attractions. Finca Valentina is built in traditional regional Salteña style, with dazzling whitewash walls and colonnades, high ceilings, and splashes of local colour lent by local textiles, handicrafts and flowers. With just 8 rooms, a pool, sundeck and tasty home-cooked meals on offer each evening, it’s easy to get settled in here if you fancy a day at leisure. Beyond are the foothills of the Andes, calling for exploration of this fascinating corner of Argentina.

What our clients say

This was our first trip to South America and most definitely will not be the last. And we will be travelling with yourselves again. It was an extremely varied trip…
LH, Altrincham Feb 2018
Perito Moreno was great again but I think the highlight was probably hiking in El Chalten area which was beautiful.
PC, London Feb 2018
Highlights: As booked by JLA Chiloe. W trek and trekking in Fitzroy Mountains out of this world. Perito Moreno a must.
KM, Stroud Mar 2016
An excellent holiday to a fantastically varied country inhabited by charming people. An absolute must.
CF, Sutton Oct 2011
What a fantastic country with genuinely friendly, happy people; it was a delight to meet so many. Although we realise we haven't seen all that the country has to offer,…
ML, Cheltenham Dec 2011
Most memorable aspect: “Something between a long walk in Torres del Paine, the glacier, the boat ride in Ushuaia, San Telmo in Buenos Aires! Too many to pick from.”
RM, Tooting Jan 2012
