"Hotel maravilhoso. Café da manhã farto, perfeito. Só fiquei triste porque a piscina externa está em reforma.Mas nada que tirasse o brilho da nossa estadia. Amei a academia também. "
"Rooms were spacious and clean. Breakfast was great and the staff was super sweet and helpful. We also enjoyed the massage and the roof top bar. Great stay!"
"Excellent hotel, very well situated for walking around the peninsula as well as close to both beaches (closer to La Mansa). But its on a quiet street so very quiet for sleeping. The staff is excellent, responsive and very helpful. The rooms are lovely. The safe in my room didn't work and finding the switch for the overhead lights was a slight challenge, but otherwise everything was perfect. I highly recommend the hotel restaurant! Breakfast was excellent, but dinner was also excellent! Fresh vegetables aren't common on many Uruguayan menus, so the fresh salads were especially welcome! "
"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!"
