Punta del Este boutique hotels offer a charm and service that is worlds apart from other boutique hotels around the world. They are distinguished by offering a personalized environment and theme that can add to the overall enjoyment of your vacation. Before you make a booking, it is worth finding out a little more about this still relatively unknown corner of South America.
Punta del Este’s boutique hotels attract visitors from all walks of life, you can spot Armani attired millionaires alongside lean bodied surfing fanatics. This small strip of land that separates Rio de la Plata from the Atlantic Ocean has an undeniably magnetic charm.
Not so long ago, the area was a simple fishing village. Fishing boats still ply the beautiful coastline, but now the streets abound with fashionable cafes, late night bars, and retail stores that would not be out of place in Milan or New York. In it no surprise that many visitors describe the town as being Uruguay’s answer to St Tropez.
There are endless opportunities for fun and excitement. You can plan a trip to a number of world class casinos in which you can win or lose your hard earned money, or hang out nightclubs featuring internationally renowned DJs who play until dawn, and relax on one of the many stunning beaches.
If you love water-sports, you will not be disappointed by the activities on offer. Your hotel can arrange sailing, boating, and windsurfing if you are so inclined. For the less adventurous there are plenty of walks, hikes, and also the opportunity to play a few rounds of golf.
If you are planning to stay in one of the Punta del Este’s boutique hotels during the Christmas and New Year vacation, be warned that advanced bookings are essential. To avoid the crowds, plan your trip for March or April.
