Hotel Fasano Punta del Este is a secluded countryside estate in the rolling hills near La Barra, a short drive from Uruguay's beaches. Its modernist bungalows, designed by Isay Weinfeld, are scattered across the land, with views of the river and the fields.

Quiet countryside within reach of the beach scene.

Where you’ll be

The estate sits inland from La Barra and Punta del Este, close to the beaches and the lively summer scene but far enough away for complete calm. José Ignacio and Bodega Garzón are a short drive away.

The stay

Bungalows are private and minimal, with natural materials and views over the countryside. The estate has a golf course, a pool, a spa and restaurants, along with horseback riding and river activities.
