Find Beach Hotels in Punta Ballena

"Great place "

"The room was great - spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff was incredibly helpful with excellent restaurant selections. Highy recommended. "

"The hotel was in a good location near the marina. There were pleasant walks nearby around the peninsula. The reception staff were pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was comparable to other hotels we stayed in and offered everything we needed for a 'continental' style breakfast. Breakfast was available from 8 until 12 which was really valuable to us and other people involved in a yacht race as boats were coming in at various times. The pool was nice and the surrounding area was clean. The bed was a good size and comfortable with nice quality bedding. We booked a triple room as my husband was bringing off a lot of clothing/equipment from the yacht but if 3 people were staying in the room I think it would be a bit cramped. Tea and coffee were available at breakfast and in the afternoon in a communal area next to reception but it would have been really welcome to have had some facilities for making hot drinks in the room. The cleanliness in the room was good but the communal areas such as the stairwells often needed cleaning as there was mess on the carpets that should have been cleaned up. This was the case for the entire 9 days of my stay. The biggest issue was the lack of soundproofing between rooms. One evening there were 3 ladies who were very noisy in the room opposite and it sounded as it they were in my room. On another occasion I was kept awake by someone snoring in a room nearby. One night workmen were drilling and banging until 10 at night. I would stay again."

"Spent 4 days and 4 nights at Hotel del Lago with my wife for a vacation and to golf. The staff was great, extremely helpful and hospitable. The building is a bit run down, as mentioned in other reviews, so that was expected. Could definitely use a deep cleaning, but we were there in the Spring so may have had some lingering winter dust to knock off. The breakfast was good, standard Uruguayan resort breakfast from our experience, the dinner had some good dishes too, and with Punta del Lago 20 minutes away the options are bountiful. Can tell that this is definitely a family-oriented place and I image it gets very busy in the summer. Lot's to do. Paddle-boarding, biking, tennis, spa treatment and golf. There was also an impressive amount of artwork. Club del Lago is maintained but clearly not used as much as it used to be. The course is not irrigated except for the greens, so many of the fairways were local weeds/grass with dirt patches, which added to the challenge. It was near empty and had an extremely mellow vibe. Staying at the hotel we did get "free" golf, but cart rentals were $40-$80 for 9/18 holes, which was fine as the carts were newer and nice. Wife rented clubs, they were "ok". Beautiful course with some great holes and very good scenery. Weather was perfect, the vibe was excellent, the course just wasn't maintained up to US standards but was still a great experience altogether. Definitely recommend, just know it's going to be a unique experience!"

"Hotel Fasano is located outside Punta Del Este in a somewhat remote location. It is pricey, but absolutely out-of-this-world beautiful! Staff, service and accommodations were impeccable. David, the manager, is hands-on, very responsive, and on top of everything. We will be back!"
