Multi-colored vines lined the driveway as we drove up to the base of the Andes Mountains. The warmth of the sun encompassed our bodies as the snow capped mountains peaked through the rows of green and purple vines. We pulled into the wine hotel of Villa Mansa, our Mendoza Argentina home away from home for a long weekend getaway from the big city of Buenos Aires.

The Location

Villa Mansa was perfectly located in the heart of wine country, just steps from the vines of famed vineyards of Mendoza malbec producers. Located 20 minutes from downtown Mendoza, Villa Mansa was in a great position to tour the wine valley of Mendoza.

The Service

While the location was incredible and the design, completely divine, it was the service that really set Villa Mansa apart. From the moment we booked our stay at Villa Mansa, the staff carefully curated an epic itinerary for our stay in wine country. Special thanks to Nicolas and Joaquin who effortlessly organized a wonderful wine weekend for us.

The Food

The culinary crew at Villa Mansa crafted delicious breakfasts for us daily. We had the pleasure of feasting on empanadas (daily) and noshing on cured meats and cheeses. On our last night, Chef Gaston put together an epicurean feast for us to enjoy. Of course, no meal would be complete without a wine pairing from a local vineyard.

The Rooms

The rooms were absolutely heavenly at Villa Mansa. Aptly named with different grape varietals to distinguish one room from the other, we rested our heads in the cabernet franc room, dreaming of the wines we savored from that day. With lush king beds and views of the vines, the rooms at Villa Mansa delighted.

The Amenities

The Spa — The in-house spa is fully equipped to detox you after your vineyard visits. Spend time in the steam room or sauna to sweat out your toxins before you head out to the next vineyard.

The Pool — The pool was my sanctuary during our stay at Villa Mansa. This infinity pool is located in the center of the property, surrounded by romantic cabanas and a lush, green landscape.

The Game Room — For those rainy days in Mendoza, the game room at Villa Mansa is the perfect place to play. During our rainy day, we spent hours perfecting our ping pong game!

Overall

Overall, our stay at Villa Mansa in Mendoza Argentina was truly a treat. Located in the heart of Mendoza wine country, it was the perfect place to marinate in malbec. Villa Mansa planted their grapes three years ago and our visit was supposed to be the first harvest year. If you visit in the upcoming years, be sure to try their in-house wine. If it’s as delicious as the rest of the hotel, you’re surely in for a treat.
