Caro and Ale are very attentive! They made me part of their family and I feel very grateful for all the time we shared. I was able to carry out several renovation tasks and I enjoyed every moment :) I hope I’ve contributed something to their project, as it’s very lovely and made with a lot of care. I’m going to miss you a lot! I hope we see each other again soon <3

I had a very lovely experience at the farm. Caro and Ale are very kind, approachable people who always looked after me. I felt very comfortable during the entire stay. The tasks were varied and pleasant, including maintenance, cleaning, and taking care of the animals. I really enjoyed the tranquility, the nature, and getting to know a region of Neuquén that I probably wouldn't have known otherwise. I have very fond memories. Thank you very much for everything! I would highly recommend the experience.

The house will always be in my heart! Its landscapes are spectacular and, being in the middle of the Patagonian steppe, its connection with the local nature is incredible. Carol and Ale are equally amazing hosts, super attentive and kind. I'm sure I'll be back to explore the landscape in the summer!

La Americana I carry it in my heart ♥️
Ale and Caro are truly wonderful people of exceptional human quality! Very attentive to everything and very willing to help with whatever you need.
The contact with nature and animals is practically therapeutic.
There is a lot of peace and no noise, so you will rest very pleasantly, especially if you come from a city as a contrast as mine.
You will be able to do very nice hikes and the views toward the mountain ranges that are 40/50 km away are spectacular.
Without a doubt I would return to collaborate at La Americana 🫶

If you want a cultural experience, contact with nature and the local population, you’re not looking for more. They welcomed us with excellent lodging! The activities are fun and done together. During the experience we go on hikes, barbecues, cultural festivals and tours the house is a very beautiful and warm bar/restaurant where culture and folklore are celebrated. On a personal level we formed bonds of friendship with Caro and Ale. They are cheerful, gentle and affectionate, and I can say with certainty that it was the best experience we’ve had on W.P. thanks to them! We will carry them in our hearts. 💛 100% recommended!
