Uruguay
From the barefoot glamour of José Ignacio to the UNESCO cobblestones of Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay is South America’s quiet luxury — understated, artful, and effortlessly chic.
Uruguay is where South America’s design-conscious elite go to disconnect. José Ignacio’s dune-backed beaches and candlelit restaurants draw a discerning international crowd each summer, while nearby Punta del Este offers a livelier glamour. Wander the pastel colonial streets of UNESCO-listed Colonia del Sacramento, or spend an afternoon among the vineyards of Garzón and Carmelo. Uruguay rewards travellers who prize refinement over spectacle.
