                <description><![CDATA[Azul Marino is like staying at someone's home but with the privacy of a small hotel. Typical of the area, it is understated but very clean and with everything you need for a beach place. The view of the peninsula and lighthouse is amazing. It is run by the owners, which I prefer, and it is easy! Breakfast is served when you are ready, not with some annoying schedule. Just like the rest of Jose Ignacio, it is unpretentious, but a great place in a beautiful setting. Not to mention that is between Marismo and Namm, two of the best restaurants in the whole Punta area, not just Jose Ignacio.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[If you're planning to spend a night in Colonia you could do a lot worse than stay in the Radisson Hotel. We booked a double room for €55 through <a target="_new" href="http://www.asiarooms.com">www.asiarooms.com</a> <br>It has a pool and casino and has recently been redecorated.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[We found this Parilla restaurant around the corner from the 4 Points by Sheraton hotel in the city centre. The service was excellent - the manager/owner speaks good English and the food was superb. <br><br>Complimentary shots at the end just added to the experience!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I found myself with two days in Montevideo with not much in the way of expectations but was really pleasantly surprised by the relaxed attitude of the people. <br><br>The city is surrounded by the sea, so it feels like a fresh place to be. There are plenty of things to buy at the Tristan Narvaja flea market on a Sunday and my husband and I also took a days tour of the wineries in the surrounding countryside. The tour was expensive but well worth the money and we had a terrific selection of wines and lunch at a winery called Bouza. <br><br>If you have time to wander around the old city its really quite splendid.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Don't expect 5-star service for 3-star prices ($108 a night). The service here is mediocre, but who cares? The architecture is one-of-a-kind (envision lots of dark, twisting tunnels) and the view from your balcony is stunning at any time of day. I highly recommend HC if you're staying in Punta del Este: it's charming and full of character. Rent a car.
