Poncho Huasi, Salta

Planning a trip with the family always means trouble. We are a married couple, with 3 sons (two of them, teenagers) from Buenos Aires (Argentina). Poncho Huasi was the answer to our thoughts and needs since the moment we got to its website. A cozy, elegant and quiet "old fashioned Casona" right in the heart of the NOA (Argentinian North West) one of the most beautiful regions of our country. Due to its perfect location, Poncho Huasi became a strategy point to set our trip. A few minutes away from the City of Salta, in the very nice neigbourhood of Cerrillos, This great place allows you to choose between the quietness of an evening by the pool in a beautiful garden surrounded by nature or spending time in the city, visiting Galleries, Museums and, of course!, trying regional food in one of its several restaurants. (Don't hesitate treating yourself with a Lama empanada!, it's delicious!). Alicia and Nick Evans, our Hosts in Poncho Huasi Know all the right places, they helped us and took care of every single detail to make our 4 day stay a wonderful experience, moments we will cherish in our hearts forever. They even joined us (visiting three other cities) as our trip went forward! we really had a great time, I just can't wait to go there again this summer! As I said in the beginning of this note, planning a trip is always a mess, but if there were more places like Poncho Huasi (with fabulous Hosts like Alicia and Nick) it would never be like that! Ian.-
