The area is beautiful, but the room very old and in very bad condition. It is a shame that some property owners rent a 300 Usd night bedroom is a status of a 1 star minus hotel. Will come back To the area but not to this poor place. The sink was loose and also the toilette, throwing water to the floor… room was not well cleaned. I will it Reccomendation travelers to go to this place. The area is very quiet and there are a lot of other nice places to stay, after stating one night I moved to another place, paid less and was excellent. All the best

The staff went out of their way to meet any request. Exceptional service. Breakfast was an excellent way to start the day - fresh, abundant and they serve it in the pool, your room, anywhere you like. Decoration was beautiful, artsy, good taste. Umbrellas and beach towels were very convenient. Great bikes!

Had a lovely time staying at la viuda de Jose Ignacio- the hotel was over some sand dunes from a huge unspoiled beach. We borrowed mountain bikes to cycle to the nearby lagoon and also into Jose Ignacio where we went to the secluded beach . We stayed in November before the main tourist season so you have to be aware only certain places in the town open - in the main season there would be many lovely restaurants to go to and vineyards to visit. We hired a car for the 2 days of our visit which was very helpful as the hotel is 4 km outside the town . You can also get the bus from Montevideo or Punte del Este. Staff at the hotel were lovely and very attentive - breakfast was very nice. The hotel was quirky with lovely artwork from the gallery in town displayed - would recommend

Relaxing beach stay
We had a wonderful stay at la Viuda! We lived our room with the sea view and tub. The free breakfast was delicious and we loved that it was offered as room service any time. So close to an isolated beach, easy drive to Jose Ignacio. Several amazing restaurants close by for dinner. Would go back and recommend to friends and family!

Good Posada, Great Management.
La Viuda is one of the best value Posadas in Jose Ignacio. The rooms are spacious, the prices are reasonable considering the alternatives, and the management consistently goes out of it's way to assist and make you feel at home.

Great stay during high season
We were there for our honeymoon. It was around New Years so everything was crazy expensive, which is typical for all of Punta del Este and the surrounding beaches. The service was amazing - all the staff was fantastic and attentive and easy to communicate with. Breakfast was lovely every day by the pool. The only negative I can think of was that the room was a little sandy when we first arrived, but as it's very much a beach themed hotel, that was no big deal. It's not located in the main area of Jose Igancio but about 3km away, which is fine because they have free bikes for you and one of the best beaches was right across the street anyway (Las Arenas del Jose Ignacio). We'd definitely go back!

AMAZING HOTEL RIGHT NEAR BEACH
This hotel was my favorite place to stay during my time in Argentina and Uruguay. The hotel staff was incredibly accommodating, giving us a personal cell phone to reach their staff at any point during our stay and also booking dinner reservations near by. The hotel provide bikes you can use to ride around the area and has a nice pool you can sit by. Each room is VERY comfortable with apple tv, and free movies to choose from. There are hot tubs in the rooms, high speed internet and amazing complimentary breakfast. All of their food options are fresh and made just right. one thing you should know though is that this hotel is NOT in puna del este. When i searched for rooms on expedia for Punta del este this hotel came up and i booked it not knowing it was about 45 minute drive north of there. I rented a car for only 40 dollars and was very glad that i did so. the drive to the hotel is amazing and there are stores and great sights to see along the way. The area of the hotel is way more peaceful and beautiful than the tourist areas of punta del este. When you do stay at this hotel make sure you go the the restaurant called LA HUELLA. its right on the beach and has an amazing atmosphere and food.

Great hotel, don't miss Jose Ignacio!
Great hotel with great service. Breakfast is outstanding. Rooms are comfortable with large jacuzzi tubs, Apple TV, wi-fi, and you can see and hear the ocean from the large balcony! Staff offered to make dinner reservations for us and were attentive to all needs. Jose Ignacio is a fantastic area. The hotel is not in the town of Jose Ignacio - about 5 minutes away by car. You could walk 5-10 minutes to get to the beach.

Sea and Countryside along
The experience was great; the location was in the middle of other isolated houses, bringing a sense of countryside (in fact, the hotel is located between trees), but minutes away of the sea. The building is more our less rustic, with a nice pool and each room has its own decoration, the top one with a incredible balcony with 180 degrees view. The people was very nice, very helpful in terms of local restaurants (most of J.Ignacio best restaurants are 3 or 4 km away, as well the city and its lovely houses, small shops and famous lighthouse). The breakfast (see photo) is served in the room, from 9.00 AM. Buy the way, here was a mistake in our reservation, but they solved it before our arrival with a large compensation (really appreciated!).

A diária do hotel é muito cara para o que é oferecido, a toalha estava furada, a banheira não havia sido limpada adequadamente e o café da manhã servido a la carte tem poucas opções.
