Tourist offices can recommend all kinds of hospedajes (lodgings), apart-hotels (rooms with cooking facilities and sometimes a sitting area), cabañas (cabins), hostels, and residenciales (bed-and-breakfasts), all of which are generally well maintained and offer good bargains. In the countryside you'll find everything from campgrounds to hosterías (inns), estancias (ranches), and even a spa hotel. Posadas (country inns) can be cozy and old-fashioned, sprawling and ranchlike, or sleek and modern. Some have first-rate restaurants and an extensive wine list. Afternoon tea, wine tastings and custom tours, horseback rides, and evening entertainment are all possible activities. More »
