Although the beaches are not like ours, with white sand and sea alternating between blue and green, Punta del Este is beautiful and inspiring both on its port and open sea side, with charming streets full of lively bars and brand stores. powerful. But if you prefer a little more discrimination, but I still have that one born by two magnificent suns, Glamurama indicates to hit the car and travel more than 30 kilometers in the direction of the José Ignacio spa, where a hotel was inaugurated that offers a unique living experience not Uruguay: or Bahia VIK.

The Bahia VIK project was assassinated by Uruguayan architect Marcelo Daglio in partnership with the donations of the hotel, the Alexander family (Norwegian) and Carrie Vik (American). The design prioritizes natural beach ventilation and intelligent solar energy generation systems and rainwater. The rooms are unique due to the variety of styles and materials used in manufacturing. It has a stone feito and wooden outro and zinc roof -style of local architecture. All with views of the sea, between dunes and native vegetation – restinga.São 11 bangalôs backed by the dunes of Praia Mansa, in José Ignacio. They have private villages, distant and separated from each other by the dunes and vegetation.
Art is a theme that Casa Vik likes and thinks about raising his dream in José Ignácio. They invited various contemporary Uruguayan artists to print their style in spacious rooms that, in turn, were created by two of their own creators. Discover the comforts of Bahia VIK like a biennial jump…
Details of two rooms, with 100% Uruguayan art impressed on the walls… Inspiring. The main construction has 10 suites with terraces with views of the dunes and the South Atlantic. The visual is like “wow!”, with a visit from sea lions. In the main room, wall art is featured along the walls and highlights the infinity pools.
The restaurant La Susana is named after Alexander Vik and prioritizes local ingredients in Uruguayan cuisine with “asados” - powerful Uruguayan churrasco -, fish, artisanal patisserie and wines that include the house, from Viña Vik. Vai um ceviche?
Now in La Susana, take the opportunity to play at the “paradores” on the beach and in the Atlantic sun. The cold is another charm of Punta e região, but the summer is quente!
Bahia VIK is part of Vik Retreats, which includes Estancia VIK, a “rustic” hotel located a few kilometers from Bahia, with a view of two pampas and services such as horse trails, a caiaque walk along the river that cuts through the region and a powerful wine cellar. The Playa Vik José Ignacio hotel, by the sea, has super modern architecture by Marcelo Daglio, with a “fluctuating” pool that seems to flow into the sea. It's great that, if you stay in any of them, you can use the services of two other hotels.
And to say goodbye to Uruguay, the Monument to the Afogados, in Praia Brava, created in 1982 by Chilean Mario Irarrázabal to alert visitors about the danger of the region's strong waters. Punta del Este is brutal, but it has many charms! SERVICE: Bahia VIK Route 10, Km 182, 500. Jose Ignacio, Maldonado, Uruguai. Telephone: +598 94 60 5314 www.bahiavik.com – daily from US$ 800 in high season (dez-mar).
