Solanas Punta del Este & Crystal Beach

The Property is huge and has multiple activities, there are multiple pools and the crystal pool is superb but we couldn't go in as the water was cold, otherwise, it's amazing. The rooms are superb, they have all the required amenities and well furnished. The hot pools are good too with lots of greenery around. There is so much to do in here so make sure you travel in summer and for at least 2 days and more We didn't know how to use the Stove and called the reception multiple times but it took them few hours to come and we were really hungry We had to carry multiple cards for towels and it varies from pool to pool,

Fabulous resort to have fun with amigos and families. Slightly expensive, but they have such myriad options to keep you entertained. Our checkout was supposed to be Sunday morning 10 AM and our return bus to Montevideo was only at 7 PM that evening, they helped us in extending our room till 4 PM free of cost.

It's basically a private neighborhood with pools, restaurants, tennis courts, gyms and more. Yes, they have a giant pool with it's own beach, but 10 minutes away you have some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. It feels like half the resort is under construction, and the rooms we stayed in were pretty old. Breakfast wasn't great, and it felt like half the staff didn't care whether you stayed or not. Staff members at the pool/beach told kids not to run (on a beach?), they told us we had to pay $50 USD per person per day for the water slide and water obstacle course (on top of the $25 per person we had to pay to even get in the pool), and tried to charge us $50 USD for a hotel room key we lost at the pool. They made us all wear one of those stupid wrist bands all over town and the hotel for the entire week, just to enter the pool. And the discounts they advertised were almost always not available at the stores for one reason or another. The cleaning crew was awesome and probably the best part of our stay. The place isn't horrible. It just feels like it's in the wrong location. Punta is beautiful and safe, and full it great homes to rent. Don't let the photos fool you.
