"Tucked between the snow-capped Andes and the mirror-like expanse of Nahuel Huapi Lake in the deep reaches of Argentine Patagonia, far-flung Villa La Angostura is one of the most scenic destinations in the country. And its most luxurious hotel, Las Balsas, housed in an elegant wooden lodge right on the lakefront, looks straight out of a fairytale — its facade painted a cheerful cobalt-blue, a quaint private dock jutting out into the water, the whole scene dwarfed by native evergreen trees and the mountains beyond. The hotel, impressively, is just as lovely inside. The look evokes alpine chalet-style elegance with exposed wooden beams, fireplaces built with native stone, and cozy seating areas beside huge windows revealing postcard-like views of the great outdoors." - Tablet Hotels
