The Best All-Inclusive Resorts in Mendoza Province
Mendoza is more than Argentina‘s premier wine-making region; in many senses, it is also a way of life. Ride on horseback beneath the Andes mountains and sample the best asado grilled meat alongside a glass of local Malbec. The best way to experience the magic of Mendoza is at one of its all-inclusive resorts. Check out our list below, bookable on Culture Trip.
Roughly 70 percent of Argentina’s wine comes from the Mendoza province. The city itself is made up of leafy streets and Art Deco buildings, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with high-altitude wineries. Needless to say, a trip to the area wouldn’t be complete without staying on one of the vineyards itself. These all-inclusive hotels not only offer wine tasting, but world-class cuisine, adventurous activities and luxurious spas.
1. Fuente Mayor Hotel And Resort
Casino Hotel
For a more budget-friendly stay in Mendoza’s Uco Valley, book the Fuente Mayor Hotel. Half of the hotel’s land is planted with Malbec vines. Stay in a cozy cabin, sleeping up to six people; each comes with a fireplace, deck and private barbecues. Don’t fancy cooking? The Manzano Restó dishes up meat-heavy Argentinian cuisine. Afterwards, roll a few dice at the on-site casino or sip a glass of red at the bar while watching the sunset over the Cordillera.

4. The Posada Salentein
Resort
The Salentein Bodega is one of the most well known in all of Mendoza, so it certainly warrants a hotel worthy of its fame. The Posada Salentein presents a unique hotel experience, connecting you deeply with nature and the essence of wine production. A stay in this small, exclusive ranch, surrounded by the bodega’s vineyards in the foothills of the Andes, is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You can also visit the Killka Art Museum on site – a convergence of art, architecture, wine and gastronomy not found anywhere else in Mendoza or Argentina.

This luxurious resort and spa frequently makes it onto international lists of the best places to stay. Benefiting not only from a spectacular location at the base of the Andes, this incredible resort is also home to one of Argentina’s most famous restaurants, Siete Fuegos, owned by Argentina’s enfant terrible of the culinary world, Francis Mallmann. There is a heavy focus on wellness, with a variety of classes available (including yoga) – even more enjoyable given the stunning setting. This is easily one of the most majestic hotels in Argentina.
