This place was one of the most memorable places I’ve stayed in my life! The cabins are in the water, so when it was very windy, the whole room was swaying. It was fun for us, but it may be a little too much for others. The location and view was just amazing. You could just jump into the water right in front of your room. Inside of the room was much better looking than what you would expect from outside.

We only stayed at Laguna Garzon Lodge for one night regrettably. It is a truly special place run by two knowledgeable hosts who care deeply about the place they live. Will definitely return!

Floating in bliss
This property was truly amazing. You're floating on a lagoon, and the land that it's attached to is separated from the ocean by mere meters of sand. We stayed there before a new bridge connecting across the lagoon to the mainland opened so we had to take a ferry over each time we wanted to cross. The bridge is slated to open in mid-December which will mean easier access for anyone that stays here but also likely a little bit more traffic. The one downside is room 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, & 10 now will have a partial view of the bridge so it's not as natural a view as rooms 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, & 12. Regardless of which room you're in, you'll be floating on the water (sea-sickness warning for those extremely sensitive) with a gorgeous view across the lagoon with the occasional wind- or kite-surfer to amaze you. You'll get a very isolated feeling and the nearby beach in particular is very isolated. The property also has a restaurant attached which serves free breakfast and then a quite excellent daily rotating dinner option if you choose not to go into José Ignacio or one of the other nearby towns. Overall, highly recommended.

A classy, unusual place bordering civilization
This is a wonderful, unusual "resort" with about 20 houseboats on the Laguna Garzon . One night in November, there was a thunderstorm, and the houseboat rocked firmly but gently. I had no problem sleeping. I felt comfortable simply reading, watching movies, relaxing, doing nothing and with no real contact to the noise of the outside world except for a kite-surfing school on the lagoon, which brings in students and adds to the atmosphere. The staff is a delight, but they made two mistakes: First, one forgot to give me my passport after check in. I have previously been stranded because of that mistake, although I caught it in time on this trip. Second, there was something wrong with my reservation - at first they said I had only booked two nights, then it was that the credit card was uncooperative. That should have been rectified at the beginning rather than as I had to rush out the door for an early flight from Montevideo. The hotel serves dinner for guests. If you don't want to go out - and after 8 that becomes a problem because a ferry to town stops. I would recommend exploring the nearby city of Jose del Ignazio - a Sotheby's hotspot with lots of good restaurants. One let us sample a marijuana dessert - the country is expected to legalize sale of the plant soon. Summary: this was a wonderful little place that I left relaxed and satisfied.

HOTEL CERRADO UNA VERGIENZA
Estaba CERRADO. Nos dejaron sin alojamiento el día del cumple de mi esposo hicimos 300km y nos dejan en la calle nos cansamos de llamarlos y no nos atendió nadie en Hollreles.cóm y cómo corolario cuando emprendemos el regreso me envían un mail consultando cómo estuvo el check in. Allí contesto y cómo no recibí contestación llamo el 3/11 ya que el 2 era feriado y ustedes me dicen que no son responsables. Además hoy sigue estando disponible la reserva a cuántas personas más van a complicar. Una VERGÜENZA y ni fueron capaces de disculparse. Claudia Sánchez +59894300505

Hotel Flutuante
O local fica num lindo lago inundado pelo mar durante o verão, com possibilidade de emprestar caiaques para remar pelo lago e bicicletas para ver a natureza local. As cabanas são flutuantes e possuem um excelente visual para o lago e para a ponte. Lugar bastante calmo. O quarto em si, possui uma boa cama, mas precisaria de uma renovação, principalmente no banheiro. O café da manhã é bom. O carro é estacionado na parte da frente do hotel, em uma passagem entre a rodovia e a entrada do hotel. Poderá ir na praia da frente que é só atravessar a rua que estará lá. O pôr do sol aqui é fantástico, rendeu algumas fotos lindas. O preço é salgado como outros hotéis na região.

Escapada de finde perfecta para descansar
Es un lugar muy acogedor. No espere grandes lujos , la idea es estar confortable al lado de la laguna Garzón con el rumor del agua como único sonido y el suave balanceo de la habitación que es flotante. Los dueños le imprimen un agradable toni boutique al alojamiento. Son muy simpáticos y atentos al huésped. En suma volveríamos sin dudarlo.

Es una muy lindo hotel y una muy buena idea, que fue arruinada por el puente que se hizo al lado y la ruta que se encuentra pegada al hotel, ya que hay mucho movimiento y poca privacidad, no es lo que era en un principio que se debía llegar en balsa.
