About

We are Huaka Guest House. Our house is automated so you can move around freely.

We simply ask that you take care of it as if it were your parents' house.
For us, the most important thing is that you have a wonderful stay. You'll find a very clean and tidy house.
We have one of the best gardens you'll find on your trip.

If you're a foreigner, this is the right place to get lots of information.

Cafayate is a town located in the south of the Province of Salta. It's known for its landscapes and wines. But it's also a very safe and peaceful place, where you can walk around at any time without any problems.
Places to visit while staying at our house: Quebrada de las Conchas and Los Médanos, Quebrada de Las Flechas and San Carlos, Quilmes Ruins and Amaicha del Valle, the 7 waterfalls of the Colorado River and the Suri Caves, Cerro de la Cruz and the San Luis area, and there are many wineries to visit.

Huaka is located 120 meters from the main square at 130 Camila Quintana de Niño Street. We are in the first ring of the city of Cafayate, surrounded by wineries, artisan shops, markets, and restaurants. We are just a few blocks from the bus terminal, from where you can arrive on foot or by taxi (we can arrange this).
Our house is mostly visited by foreign tourists. We want you to feel at home when you arrive. It is a place where respect is paramount, and we are very mindful of this. We are not a party place; on the contrary, we value connection with nature and with other people: 'Travel is about people' is our motto. It is a place where you will be able to be physically active. Bicycle and scooter rentals are available in the city. We are committed to peaceful tourism, seeking harmony and relaxation.
We have quiet hours at night when the common areas are closed. We have a wealth of information about Cafayate, Argentina, and all of Latin America to share with you.
Our staff is trained to make your stay enjoyable, and we offer rooms to suit the needs of our guests. You can enjoy all the spaces designed with you in mind.

One of my favourite hostels I’ve ever stayed in. A relaxing atmosphere in a perfect location, everyone there was so lovely and had great recommendations on what to do in Cafayate. I wish I had stayed longer!

The place is amazing and is the best price you will find. There is some strictness to this place but it keeps it organised and clean. More than a hostel I feel it is more like a guesthouse and when you are a guest I feel you respect the house and keep it always clean yk. I personally loved it, it feels like hostels from before where it is cheap accomodation and not like modern hostels like feel like hotels. I highly reccomend staying here. Staff was incredible as well.

Brilliant stay. Max was so friendly and helpful helping us to find somewhere to watch our football team, even offering his own house to watch the game! One of the best hostel kitchens we have used - super clean and well equipped. Walking distance to beautiful bodegas. Its not atypical hostel, almost more of a home stay, but a really perfect place to enjoy Cafayate. Free parking outside the hostel
