The property is in a park off the El Camino Real (the road to the north). Here, guests can watch a Polo match, ride horses, take a carriage ride, lay by the pool, go mountain biking, learn about Gaucho life, go fly-fishing or have a massage. The outdoor dining room served Argentinian cuisine, including mate tasting and a traditional asado (Argentine barbeque).

Guests arrive at the property via an avenue of plane trees off of a dirt road. La Bamba de Areco offers rooms and suites spread throughout three buildings, with several reception rooms, dining room, library, bar, billiards room, massage room and a boutique where local artwork and leather and silver goods are sold.
