Playa Vik is a strikingly modern retreat, born from a collaboration between its visionary creators and renowned Uruguayan architect Carlos Ott.
Situated in the vibrant town of José Ignacio, this property boasts a unique design and an exceptional beachfront location. Perched on a small hill, it offers sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, the stunning Playa Mansa, and unforgettable sunsets.
The hotel centers around a remarkable 'Sculpture,' which houses an impressive art collection. The stylish suites and individual casitas embrace a modern coastal aesthetic, while the main area includes a living room adorned with eclectic sculptural pieces and cozy sofas. Guests will also find a formal dining room, a well-stocked library, a games room, small treatment rooms, and a 40-foot wine cellar. The highlight is the elevated infinity pool that dramatically extends towards the Atlantic, offering a serene escape.
One of the property's most unique features is its seventy-five-foot infinity pool. Crafted from Uruguayan black absolute nero granite, the pool floor is embedded with a celestial map of the southern hemisphere, brought to life by tiny optic lights. Playa Vik also offers a charming firepit, perfect for a relaxing evening under the stars.
Dining at Playa Vik’s Cielomar restaurant is a celebration of Uruguayan flavors, with family-style meals featuring fish barbecues, locally sourced fruits and vegetables, and freshly baked bread and pastries. Guests can also enjoy similar culinary experiences at its sister properties, Bahia Vik and inland Estancia Vik, where horseback riding is a popular activity.
