Don Enrique - Northern Argentina, Argentina
About this Chic Retreat
The name of this simple and chic retreat, Don Enrique, has been dedicated to the memory of Enrique Daniel Castaing, a man full of dreams and a great passion. Enrique was a dreamer and that is how those who were part of his life are going to remember him. One of his biggest desires was to open his own inn and run it with his family. Today, that family, his children, want to pay this small tribute to his dreams and memory.
Guests are welcomed so warmly here by the owners, you almost have the feeling that you already know them. The house has been designed as a common area, and it is decorated in a simple, rustic way with lots of sofas, hammocks and pillows to get comfortable and rest. Without any exception, all fruit and vegetables that are eaten here are grown in the vegetable garden - the colours and flavours are the truest you will find.
Accommodation
The 3 rooms at Don Enrique have a warm inviting atmosphere, always with nice music, a game or a good book. The vitality and freshness of the forest works it way through the windows of the house and of the cabins. All of them are right next to the river allowing the rippling of the water to be heard. Each cabin has hammocks on the porch and there is a deck a few metres away from the clear, soft waters.
Activities
Walk through the jungle, take in the stunning scenery that surrounds Don Enrique; waterfalls, rivers and the local wildlife that goes with it. The fire is lit outside in the evenings where it is amazing just to sit and watch the huge sky full of stars - breathtaking.
Dining
The food is made from local fresh ingredients - full of colour and intense, mouth-watering flavours. The menu combines flavours from the Mediterranean and local specialities. Dinner always starts early with some drinks and lasts until late in the night with talks around a warm cup of coffee or tea.
