Just a short drive from Salta city—but a world away in atmosphere—House of Jasmines is a refined and romantic boutique estancia nestled at the foothills of the Andes. Surrounded by 100 hectares (247 acres) of farmland, gardens, and eucalyptus trees, this Relais & Châteaux property is a sanctuary of peace, elegance, and understated luxury.
Historic Charm with a French-Argentine Soul
The property was once owned by actor Robert Duvall, and today it has been transformed into a timeless estate where colonial elegance meets rustic chic. The main house, over a century old, has been meticulously restored to preserve its original character.
The estancia offers 14 rooms and suites, distributed between the historic main house and a newer garden annex. Rooms feature:
- Antique furniture and fireplaces
- Whitewashed walls and natural textures
- Mountain or garden views
- Spacious bathrooms and artisanal details
The atmosphere is warm and personal, with a design that evokes both the spirit of the Argentine northwest and a European country home.
Culinary and Wellness Experiences
- The La Table de House of Jasmines restaurant uses ingredients from the property’s own organic gardens and local producers to create dishes that blend regional flavors with French techniques.
- Signature meals include grilled meats, regional stews, and homemade breads, often served by candlelight on the terrace.

- An outdoor pool with Andean views
- A small spa offering massages and wellness rituals
