If you are planning on seeing off the racers at Dakar 2012, this might be an option as a place to stay. Its an hour an a half drive to Mar Del Plata, but it is very probable that the rally will pass through, or at least nearby, Necochea.

If it appears that all hotel rooms are booked, there is an Argentine company that sometimes has listings in Necochea not available on the major travel websites. And prices tend to be a bit cheaper as well. It is a good option if you or somebody you know has an intermediate level of Spanish. And even better yet, prices on this website tend to be lower than hotel booking websites. The name of the site is Despegar (which means ‘take off’) . Check it out here: Hotels in Argentina
