The space LOCATION: We are located 80 km from the city of Mendoza (an hour and a half approx.), on the north coast of the Potrerillos Dam. We are in front of the Hotel Potrerillos and Bar Las Palapas, 14 km from the village. To get to the complex, cross a railway bridge and then drive 5.8 km on a gravel road suitable for any vehicle. We are located in an area away from the village to better connect with nature, making the experience more pleasant. OPTIONS FOR GETTING HERE: 1- You can get here by bus from the Mendoza terminal to the village of Potrerillos and from the village of Potrerillos to the domes in a transfer. We have transfer contacts. 2- The most convenient way is to arrive by car to have greater independence. We have car rental contacts. 3- You can also get there by transfer from the city of Mendoza or by taxi/Uber, which can be cheaper but they don't want to pick you up again once they bring you, since it's not close. That's why we recommend our transfers. TEMPERATURE: In the area where we are located, there is a wide range of temperatures. During the day, the temperature rises and it is hot, and at night it gets cooler. IN THE AUTUMN-WINTER SEASON (June, July, and August) WATER MAY FREEZE DUE TO LOW TEMPERATURES AND THIS MAY AFFECT THE RUNNING WATER SUPPLY at certain times of the day. In that case, you will not be able to shower at certain times. We will provide you with two containers of water for cooking and the toilet. Part of the experience is visitors lighting and feeding the salamanders. IN SPRING-SUMMER SEASON (November, December, January and February) IT CAN BE VERY HOT INSIDE THE DOME DURING SUN HOURS, so we recommend coming prepared to spend the day outside the dome (in the common sector that has shade, in the pool or swimming in the dike). SUGGESTIONS: Bring sunscreen, bug spray, a hat, and layers of clothing. In winter, bring a hat, gloves, and warm socks for the extremities and keep the dome and curtains closed when it starts to cool. It is important to keep the salamander on during the night in autumn - winter, feeding it every so often. THE ACCOMMODATION includes sheets and towels, a gas stove for cooking, a minibar, and a kitchen equipped with the necessary utensils. It has no oven or freezer!! The fire area can be used for cooking. We have a small menu of pizzas, empanadas and others, with service to the dome. Kitchen hours are from 12 to 2 pm and from 6 to 9 pm. If you want to cook, we recommend bringing supplies as there are no places to shop near the complex. We are in an area away from the village (14 km) about 30 minutes away. The complex is self-sustaining. The water comes from a slope, so we must use it reasonably. The energy comes from solar panels.

OTHER ASPECTS TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT: We respect and take great care of the nature, flora and fauna of the place. We have solar panels that provide us with energy, so its consumption must be done during the day and is only enough to charge cell phones and notebooks. HAIR DRYERS, IRONS, AND SIMILAR APPLIANCES CANNOT BE USED. The water comes from a spring and that is why we must take care of it when washing dishes and bathing. For wastewater we use a biodigester and PAPERS SHOULD NOT BE THROWN INTO THE TOILET or foreign elements that may obstruct its operation. We use gray water for irrigation, so it's important not to throw chemicals that could harm the flora into the sinks or shower. We provide biodegradable shampoo, conditioner, and detergent.
