David says
One of the best hotels in the region, Las Balsas is a place you dream of getting back to when you’re out exploring for the day. It’s the sort of place which felt like home as soon as I entered and I never really wanted to leave. I’d highly recommend tasting the wines from the family’s estate, whilst gazing at the magical lake and mountain backdrop.
