Hosteria El Potrerillo de Larreta — Hotel in Municipio de Alta Gracia

Breathtaking views, challenging design and devilish greens in a low profile, classy, boutique resort in the middle of Argentina. You could easily find yourself sharing the cart with an industry tycoon or a tour pro. You would find no fancy "signature" course plate on the sidewalk into the putting green, but the course design is a beauty, with blind driving shots, elevation challenges and glassy greens that would scare Oakmont's members. Best to share with your partner (as in my case, along my 5 months old) or even better with your mid-40s+ friends for two rounds a day, siesta and a good barby for dinner (along with plenty malbec and a couple of golf stories). Would not trade it for any Patagonia resort or any other golf course south of the Caribbean. Again, it is at it best with friends aiming a spending a super time in a low profile (and I mean it) top notch resort that has somehow managed to stay free of wanna be's, typical golfing tourist (who do not play the game at all but rather prefer to spend their time drinking beers at the pool) or the kind of guy that see golf as a mean to do things rather than as an way to find your inner soul. The resort is an old colonial house with a kitchen any foodie would enjoy. Super fresh, simple but classy (less is more... have your heard it). The place is as silent as a mafia member (you can easily spend an entire night hearing just your breath). The course is full of wildlife (foxes, birds, wild rabbits, iguanas), but when you get there you know you wanna play two rounds a day. Period. Book in advance. Best time to visit is spring and fall (winter tends to be cold and summer supper hot). It is a boutique hotel, so do not expect a great availability. Book in advance. Enjoy your two rounds of golf a day, your siesta, your mates, your barby dinner and the even better malbec. Life is short and better spent in...

We came for a week from Buenos Aires to escape the humid weather. I am a keen golfer so I was delighted to see such a high quality and professional course surrounding the hotel. The hotel itself is Spanish Colonial Style with large rooms updated to modern expectations. Wonderful restaurant serving top quality food, an extensive wine list, priced so as not to make your eyes water, excellent staff and recreational facilities, a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the quiet, slower pace in the lovely countryside of...

Hace mas de 15 años q c/ mi marido visitamos Potrerillo con regularidad, es cierto q con pandemia mediante, hace un par de años q no íbamos… Estuvimos esta ultima semana, la atencion del personal.. Veronica, Milena, Ariel, Hernan.. las chicas q ordenan los cuartos.. la calidad y calidez a q nos tienen acostumbrados.. y aun mejor..!!! Da gusto ver personal de algunos, 20 años d antigüedad y seguir en sus puestos, eso habla MUY bien de los dueños del lugar..!! Mis felicitaciones..!!! Si, hemos notado ciertos cambios… algunos muy buenos.. otro, para nosotros no tanto.. si bien el desayuno es muy completo, extrañamos la calidez de como nos mimaban x las mañanas con la canastita de tostadas recien hechas… en fin, el trato personalizado…las tazas son minimas.. se necesitan tazas de tamaño desayuno..otra cosa q disfrutabamos desde q planeabamos la visita era lo q ibamos a comer… si bien la comida no es mala, hemos notado q la calidad no es la misma q en otra epoca, ni la carta, ni cantidad…una pena… x ejemplo… en las entradas.. hay 4 o 5 opciones… mollejas y langostinos con el mismo acompañamiento.. una humita c/ cebollas supuestamente caramelizadas.. plato principal .. x ejemplo, una pechuga asada, minima porcion sin relacion de precio con un bife de chorizo de 450grs .. No estan mas las fantasticas clasicas milanesas..!! Las extrañamos..!!! Cuando estamos varios dias necesitamos cierta variedad..!!! |Despues… el lugar, el golf, entorno… mas q maravilloso.. x eso y todo lo anterior lo disfruto como...
