Bahia Vik, part of the ultra-chic Vik Retreats collection, is set on ten acres of stunning beach dunes along Mansa Beach in José Ignacio.
The property has a prime location facing west, offering breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and the nearby Punta del Este. This area of coastal Uruguay is celebrated for its unspoiled beaches, dramatic landscapes, mesmerising sunsets, and laid-back atmosphere.
The hotel features ten spacious suites and eleven expansive bungalows, thoughtfully nestled among the sand dunes to ensure privacy and a deep connection with nature. Each suite is distinctively designed, blending Uruguayan grey slate with contemporary open-plan layouts. Private terraces accompany each suite, providing uninterrupted views of the dunes, beach, and ocean. The interiors are further enhanced by vibrant artwork from both local and international artists.
Dining at Bahia Vik is a delight, with options including the Zodiaco restaurant, where guests can enjoy meals on the outdoor terrace, by one of the pools, or in the dining room. The menu highlights fresh seafood, traditional Uruguayan BBQ, and locally sourced produce, complemented by homemade bread and pastries. Guests can also savour the renowned VIK wine from the property’s sister vineyard in Chile. Additionally, the seasonal restaurant La Susana is a favourite among both locals and visitors.
Activities at Bahia Vik are diverse, ranging from horseback riding at Estancia Vik, golf, tennis, surfing, and polo lessons to kiteboarding, cycling, canoeing, or simply relaxing by the pool, indulging in a spa treatment, or swimming in the sea.
