ESTANCIA RINCON CHICO, VALDES PENINSULA

WILDLIFE-RICH BEACHES

With just 8 guest rooms, you are constantly surrounded by nature at Estancia Rincón Chico, but the location makes you feel like the only person in the world.

From elephant seals and whales to armadillos and wild cats. From albatross and night herons to buzzard eagles and turkey vultures. From molle and tuna (the plant not the fish) to quilimbay and fabiana. Everywhere you look you’ll discover a fascinating life form, perfectly adapted to life in the rich but demanding environment of the Valdes Peninsula.

Stroll along the Estancia Ricón Chico’s beach and you may well see orcas and sea lions, dusky and bottlenose dolphins, penguins and massive southern right whales breaching the inky blue sea.

And Ricón Chico is a natural part of this entrancing landscape. It’s a simple, single storey estancia with a full length veranda. Inside you can expect true Patagonian home comforts, plus hearty cooking and deeply comfortable beds.
