Hotel service the last day included a water outage of several hours, which delayed breakfast. Breakfast was also incomplete since they had o water for coffee, tea, sanitary etc. This also delayed check out and hotel was not happy with everyone checking out late. Hotel did not take responsibility for this inconvenience other to say I am sorry

Great Views of Laguna Del Lago
This is a nice hotel only 7-8 minutes off the main highway. The hotel is a little aged but still in decent shape, and the views and paths along the lake are wonderful. Very peaceful location with a courteous and helpful staff and good room prices make this a good safe location to spend a few nights outside of Maldonado.

Good but could be much better
Amazing location. Rooms are correct for what the hotel charges but the restaurants are way overpriced for their offering and the staff is soo slow and unmotivated. Staff at the reception and bar were ok. For $ 500 a night, it is way overpriced. For $ 200-300 you are getting decent value.

Nice place to relax
Great place to fall off the grid and just relax. The lake is beautiful and the swimming pools are perfect to spend the day at during the summer. Staff is accommodating, beds are comfortable, there's amazing artwork everywhere, breakfast is very good too. It is far from civilization so not the right option if you plan to spend most of your time in Punta del Este.

A weekend getaway
I enjoyed my stay here. I loved the artwork displayed on the walls, the pool was nice, the free breakfast was good, and the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. This hotel is a golf resort, and we were not there for golf, so it's a bit further from Punta del Este (which is why we were there) than I'd like it to be, but the hotel offers a shuttle to Punta del Este for a small fee, so that was cool. The last pick-up to go back to the hotel is a little too early, so if you're wanting to be out late, you will need to take a taxi back. They also offer a free shuttle to the nearby beaches, and a shuttle to the airport, so that's also nice. As far as food, if you don't have a car, your only option is what the hotel has to offer as there is nothing within a short walking distance. We had a small meal at the bar, and it was decent. The room was clean, the shower was nice and big, and the beds were super comfortable. It rained on one of the days we were there so we hung out at the hotel all day and found it to be very comfortable and relaxing with a wide range of amenities offered. The front desk also called every night just to see if we needed anything. Given it's distance from Punta del Este, if or when I ever come back, I would stay here again.

Beautiful view of the lake from a large balcony.
The lake is large, lined by tall pines with many species of birds nesting. A nice cool breeze flows across the white caps and engulfs the room with freshness. A nice relaxing environment to enjoy a cocktail.

Nothing to brag about
The hotel is not appealing to the eye from the outside. The inside is a time tunnel and needs updating. Pool was dirty , chairs as well. Some of the patio furniture needs to go in the trash. Went for a walk and the board walk is all torn up. No cautionary signs where you could easily catch your leg in a hole from missing boards. Our room was not clean especially the bathroom and mold on the tiles. Bed linens were clean.Staff was nice but we had to ask for things that a high end resort would have attended to. The grounds were pretty. The hotel has the potential to be better if the attention to detail was there. The manager was very nice and gave my husband a discount voucher for us to come back. Unfortunately I would never go back.

We stayed at the suite and had an amazing time. The jacuzzi was fantastic and not expensive at all. Only thing negative was you could tell it had't been used for some time as there were some spider webs in the balcony and some other hidden areas. Other than that was great, very friendly staff, very nice breakfast and the surroundings of the hotel are stunning.

Excellent Hotel With Beautiful Facilities
We are halfway through a 4-month world trip and this was the best hotel we stayed in to date. It is a resort located in an upscale region within a forested area close to Punta Este. Our room with HUGE and had a marvelous deck that overlooked a manicured mixed pine & oak forest. The outdoor pool was massive and beautifully situated in the forest. This is the best hotel that I had the pleasure to visit in a long time. The only drawback was that we had to leave to fly to Greece to continue our trip I hope someday to return to Uruguay and stay at this Club for a longer time.

Book somewhere else.
As soon as we walked in, we wished we'd booked somewhere else. The hotel is dark, dingy and in dire need of a makeover. The rooms are full of cheap furniture, the carpets are badly stained and smell damp, the bathrooms look old. The breakfast is basic and unappetising. My heart sank when I walked into the room and from that moment on it was just a matter of waiting it out - not the sort of feeling you want on your Christmas holidays. If we could have got a refund and booked elsewhere, we'd have gone. Worse still, the hotel is about 20 minutes out of town (Punta Del Este) and the charge to get into town by taxi was US$40 (80 round trip) - they have a twice daily shuttle service into town which leaves at inconvenient times and is not free. And if you're stuck in the hotel, then you have to eat at their expensive restaurant or have room service. All in all, this place feels like a one star 1980s Eastern European holiday camp. Avoid.
