While at CATM 2022, I was hosted for three brief but marvelous days at La Posada del Qenti, a premier wellness destination. While the Conference took me away for one of the days, I was able to experience and enjoy the location and services offered.
Set on a hillside with stunning views of the Sierras de Cordoba, this private eco-reserve is nestled in 400-hectares (about 1,000 acres) of gardens, fields, and woodlands with walking trails and plenty of places for communing with nature. The Posada offers a series of colonial style buildings with accommodations for privacy and peaceful sleep, mingling with other guests, dining, and exercise as well as swimming pools and tennis courts. It is designed to be comfortable without being pretentious.
My room overlooked the mountains. One night I was treated to a thunder and lightning display that was thrilling. The peacefulness and tranquility of the setting gave me three nights sleep – an unusual occurrence for me.
Guests are provided daily with personalized menus and suggested activities based on their physical abilities and healthcare goals.

Meals are individually prepared from the extensive vegetable and herb gardens and fruit trees on the premises - truly farm to table. The food is served according to five-star standards. The food is organic, sugar-free, and delicious. I loved every meal I had there.
Individual exercise and activities are recommended each day according to what will be most beneficial for each guest. The staff is led by a physician along with physical therapists, nutritionists, massage therapists, and other licensed healthcare practitioners who work with each guest to maximize results and enjoyment.
The products used for various treatments including massage are organic and locally made. My massage was completely relaxing. It managed to release stress and muscle knots that are frequent and unwelcome side effects of travel.
Overall, the attention to detail is excellent. The hospitality is sincere and warm. The prices are affordable, especially by US and European standards. The next trip there will be 100% holiday. I look forward to getting back there soon!
