Our favourite rooms

The natural curves of every adobe-built lodge conceal grounding decor, gigantic beds and luxurious bathrooms, so you can’t go wrong. The Two Bedroom Villa is a splash-out expansive sanctuary, with its large plunge pool and fireplace-toting roof terrace.

Poolside

Quiet afternoons spent beside the main pool, overlooked by snow-capped peaks, are best paired with a glass of chardonnay. If you prefer a more secluded dip, your lodge’s private plunge pool is all yours.

Spa

Through carved double doors, the courtyard spa beckons. Treatments make use of the plentiful local crop, with top billing going to the couples’ Bonarda Bath – a polyphenol-rich soaking in the region’s ubiquitous grape. Those who prefer their wine in a glass can choose from an extensive list of facials and massages. Or ease horseback-riding-weary muscles in the sauna, Jacuzzi or plunge pool. If it’s toning up you’re after, the hotel has a small gym.

Packing tips

Riding boots to let you live out your gaucho fantasies; upscale swimwear for days in the sun; and layers for star-spangled evenings.

Also

The culinary team lead open-air classes cooking empanadas and rib-eye on the parrilla, and wine tastings uncork every day at 7pm. Book early for Vendimia harvest events (February to April), where you can pick and tread grapes and join the festivities.

Top Table

Under a light-draped pergola and surrounded by olive trees, the vineyard tables make the most of the sierra scenes.

Dress Code

Gaucho chic, and a warm jacket for evenings alfresco.

Hotel restaurant

Helmed by Awasi Iguazú-alum Samanta Lugo, the restaurant’s traditional Latin American cuisine uses fruit and veg grown steps away. You can almost see the kitchen garden through the storied dining room’s arched doors, framing postcard-worthy mountain vistas. Following the curated philosophy of the rest of the hotel, seasonal menus are tailored to your tastes, and can be adapted to be vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free. Naturally, wine plays a starring role. The sommelier’s picks from Argentine producers sit beside the Awasi vineyard’s own vintages in the 500-bottle cellar.

Hotel bar

Tipples can be taken pretty much anywhere at Awasi Mendoza. Swap tasting notes with fellow wine lovers in the sumptuous living room, in the restaurant, or on the terrace. Or take a seat on the steps of the open-air theatre to watch dancers tap out salidas and ochos in scheduled tango shows. Wherever you perch, the wine list is unsurprisingly extensive, so collar the sommelier for the lowdown on terroirs and tannins.

Resting among Mendoza's acclaimed wineries, with the monumental peaks of the Andes as its backdrop, Awasi Mendoza is deceptively well connected — you can get into the city in under half an hour.

Planes

Mendoza International Airport El Plumerillo is 50 minutes’ drive away. It has regular flights from South American hubs like Panama City and Buenos Aires, where you can connect to major North American and international routes. The hotel will arrange transfers, which are included with your stay.

Automobiles

You're unlikely to need a set of wheels at Awasi Mendoza, where transfers are included and each room or villa comes with its own 4x4 and personal driver.

Worth getting out of bed for

Days at Awasi Mendoza are easily whiled away strolling through the vines, soaking in the spa or completing lazy laps of the pool between sips of vino tinto. On-site activities like cooking classes, wine tasting and cycling also pull focus. But it’s worth venturing out to the nearby wineries, either in your designated car, on bike or even horseback. The hotel can arrange tastings and lunches with the experts at local bodegas such as Finca Decero and organic winemaker Ojo de Agua in Agrelo. If you’re comfortable in a saddle, you can ride to the turquoise-tinged Lake Potrerillos. Paddleboarding, sailing and kayaking with Potrerillos Explorer enjoy the same Andean scenery. Daredevils can also try white water rafting. Hiking here is hard to top. Ask the hotel to curate an itinerary for you that, based on your appetite for adventure, could take you along the Condor Lookout Trail, via Mount Vallecitos or the Aconcagua Provincial Park. A trip into Mendoza City offers a shot of urban contrast, with art galleries, boutiques and restaurants in abundance.  

Local restaurants

For a theatrical Michelin-starred meal that can stretch for up to 12 courses, you only need to venture a few miles. Angélica Cocina Maestra, on the fabled Catena Zapata wine estate, pairs dishes with historic house wines — book well ahead. More Michelin-approved dishes await at Brindillas, run by chef Mariano Gallego and his sommelier wife Florencia D'Amico. Tasting menus including local lamb or suckling pig are served to just 18 diners. A more casual lunch can be found at Riccitelli Bistró (at its namesake winery) where the organic, rustic feel of the plates complements the shipping-container surroundings.  

Local bars

Wine drinkers, rejoice – your personal driver and car from Awasi Mendoza mean no stumbles home are needed. Neighboring La Vida serves sips from female winemaker Susana Balbo, alongside cocktails that mix native greenery (jarillo shrubs, vine leaves) with classic Argentine bottles.

Anonymous review

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this vine-garlanded hotel in the Andes and unpacked their Malbec and riding boots, a full account of their bucolic break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Awasi Mendoza in Argentina… 

The birds singing in the vines are high on Awasi Mendoza’s long list of charms. As is the bird-watching book in your room for identifying them over morning coffee (or a sunset Malbec).  Let both be your cue to kick back and embrace the hotel’s gift for indulgent analogue moments.  

The hotel’s low-tempo, high-grade rusticity goes hand in Argentine-leather glove with its location at the heart of wine country. This 55-acre vine-ribboned estate, new to Awasi in 2025, puts Mendoza’s history of viticulture front and center. A restaurant which bases its seasonal menus around wine pairings; a 500-bottle cellar for daily tastings, and a 

signature spa treatment that involves literally bathing in the stuff — there’s a vintage for everyone. And when you want to venture off the estate, your designated guide and 4x4 take care of the driving, leaving you free to swill a glass or two. The result’s a heady blend worth savoring.
