A new website reviewing the best hacienda and estancia hotels of South America has launched this week.

(TRAVPR.COM) UK - January 31st, 2014 - Historic Haciendas aims to provide its readers with helpful and informative critiques of South America’s finest hacienda and estancia hotels.

Showcasing the best of this style of accommodation, Historic Haciendas, has done all the hard work and research for its readers. It features a collection of  handpicked haciendas and estancias across South America. They range from the luxuriously elegant to the comfortably rustic. Some of the haciendas and estancias are still working farms where you can participate in everyday. While at others you can just wind down and relax, enjoying the peace and tranquility of these beautiful estates.

Haciendas and estancias (in English also known as farms, estates or plantations) make wonderful places to stay on this enchanting and diverse continent. They usually have a rich and interesting history, are set in picturesque surroundings and provide their guests with a very enjoyable taste of the countryside and all its pursuits. Dining can be a gastronomic delight, for carnivores and vegetarians alike, as the food is always fresh, often organic and definitely delicious. Oenophiles will also have plenty of opportunity to try the local excellent wines and even in some places visit the vineyards.

Historic Haciendas is the first website to present this style of accommodation throughout South America in such a clear, concise, attractive and user-friendly manner.

Each hacienda and estancia has its own page complete with a trustworthy review, broad selection of photographs and also a succinct description of their facilities and amenities. An easy to use booking enquiry link is provided and the detailed reviews ensure you will know what to expect on arrival. Each one of the hotels has been personally visited so all of the descriptions are honest first hand accounts. The standard of accommodation varies from place to place so there is something to suit everyone and all budgets, from the luxurious through to the more authentic and rustic.

The destinations include Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Ecuador and Colombia. Over time more haciendas, estancias and countries will be added but the required high standard of accommodation it takes to be part of Historic Haciendas will never be compromised.

Please visit and see for yourselves the wonderful array of accommodation featuring on the newly launched hacienda and estancia style hotel review website.
