Fishing Frenzy

Filled with excitement and eccentricity all thanks to its Latin American heritage, who ever thought that Argentina also makes a great country for repose and relaxation? No, I'm not talking about the blatant fact that Argentina is practically a paradise when it comes to wildlife and natural sceneries. I'm talking about spas here which offer tourists quick getaways from their hectic lifestyles back home. They say that one dozen's a dime but there are more than twelve natural, luxury, and wine spas in Argentina - thirteen, to be exact - and they are spread throughout Bariloche, Mendoza, El Calafate, Salta, and Buenos Aires.

Argentina's natural spring spas are tucked away from civilization and cozily nestled in protected forests. The remote and ecofriendly locations of these spas make them ideal destinations for nature buffs who would like to enjoy the view of stunning sceneries while submerged in revitalizing natural springs or taking advantage of these spas' facilities such as outdoor pools, thermal spas, massages, aroma therapies, and others more.

Bariloche has three natural spas - Lahuen Co Temas de Epulafquen, Thermal Spa Cavihue, and Copahue Thermal Spa. Mendoza only has one thermal spa, Termas Cacheuta. Rejuvenating and relaxing, these natural spas are affordable alternatives to the country's luxury spas.

Argentina's luxury spas are mostly concentrated in Bariloche although some are also found in Salta and El Calafate. Since they are "luxury spas," tourists opting for them must be willing to splurge a little. Because these luxury spas are conveniently set in hotels, they are often preferred by modern and city tourists as they are very easy to reach. Hence, Argentina's luxury spas are only for tourists who have money, who think that natural spas are inconvenient, and who would like to take a break after a tiring day of visiting several Argentina attractions.

Bariloche has the most luxury spas in Argentina. They are the Llao Llao Resort and Spa, the Las Balsas Gourmet Hotel and Spa, and Nido del Condor. In El Calafate, there is only the Posada Los Alamos whilst Salta too only has one luxury spa called the House of Jasmines. Even though these luxury spas are more expensive than natural spas, they are the easiest to reach making them equally viable choices regardless of their cost.

Wine spas are the newest spa treatments offered in Argentina but the use of local grapevines for similar body treatments are not new to indigenous Argentineans. Since Mendoza and Salta are where Argentina's wineries and grapevine vineyards are concentrated, you can find many wine lodges offering wine spas here and among the best are Estancia Colome, Cavas Wine Lodge, and Patios de Cafayate. The Faena Hotel and Universe of Buenos Aires also offers the same wine spas. This hotel is the most convenient choice for city tourists who would like to feel how it's like to have a wine spa treatment.
