Jose Ignacio, Uruguay
Casa Suaya
Super Chic Beachfront Hotel in a Privileged Location
With four acres of beachfront ‘pampas’, private gardens and stylish design, Casa Suaya has been quickly earning a reputation as a hideaway for the jet-set and honeymooners.
Rooms here are tasteful and modern; including stone fireplaces, flat-screen TVs and large windows, they also come equipped with blackout curtains, so you can relax in comfort after a nights’ partying. The hotel also features a handful of bungalows, ideal for those looking for their own personal oasis, or for family groups in need of extra space.
With the shortest high season in the world, at 15 days, the quiet town of Jose Ignacio explodes into life just after Christmas; it may be worth visiting in the off-season for a more tranquil experience. Spend your time here hanging out poolside during the day before wandering into one of the small village’s restaurants for a late (and long) lunch. Follow this with a light siesta before hitting the beach or wandering to the nearby lighthouse, local art galleries and fashion boutiques. There are a handful of outstanding restaurants and bars close by; the party atmosphere here in high season is unmissable and well worth dipping into.

Places to combine Casa Suaya with
Peru
Located within the historical heart of Arequipa, Palacio Guaqui was once the manor house of the Count of Guaqui from the 19th to the 20th century. This beautifully restored mansion forms part of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, recognised for its cultural and architectural significance.
Every detail of Palacio Guaqui’s restoration reflects a deep respect for its original structure and surrounding environment. Peruvian artisans, using innovative and sustainable techniques, have preserved the mansion’s authentic charm while crafting an elegant retreat that feels timeless yet modern. Each suite in this boutique hotel is a sanctuary of refined design, offering spacious, warm and inviting interiors. The serene ambiance of the three courtyards invites you to unwind and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of Arequipa.
The hotel’s restaurant pays homage to the region’s culinary traditions, serving exquisite dishes crafted with fresh, local ingredients. The cosy atmosphere provides the perfect setting to savour authentic flavours of Peru, while a varied buffet breakfast ensures a delicious start to the day. For a more private dining experience, room service delivers the same level of culinary excellence to your suite. For those on the move, the hotel offers thoughtfully prepared lunch boxes, allowing you to carry a taste of Arequipa wherever your adventures takes you. Meanwhile the 24-hour bar provides an array of beverages and light snacks at any time of the day or night.
