The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

Situated in the Argentinean province of Salta, a Quechuan word for ‘beauty’, House of Jasmines harkens thoughts of a paradise rich in legend, history and unspeakable natural charm. Just a two hour drive from the bustling metropolis of Buenos Aires, travellers will feel as if they have been transported in time to a magical place of elegant palatial residences built in timeless colonial style.

Visitors are hypnotized by the beauty of the high country with its arid landscapes, rugged valleys and canyons, and the dense forests to the north inhabited by a variety of wildlife. This hundred-year-old residence cultivates the art of receiving with refinement. In a park of 100 hectares, guest can hear the nature breathe in the shade of centuries-old trees.

With only seven finely appointed guestrooms and one separated house it is a most romantic hideaway. The cuisine, simple and flavourful, relies heavily on the region’s renowned meat and dairy products as well as the garden’s fresh produce. Also on hand is the House of Jasmines Spa for physical and spiritual restoration and healing.
