Esperaba mas
Nos pasó que tuvimos que ir 3 veces a recepción porque las tarjetas no abrÃan la puerta de la habitación. Además se rompió la cisterna del baño. Por el COVID 19 habÃa que hacer reserva de todo tipo de actividad, desde lo más mÃnimo y no fue comunicado al momento de hacer la reserva.
Cuando llegamos a la habitación de la reserva no habÃan hecho la habitación 😒
Las piscinas y el lago son preciosos. La comida de los restaurantes podrÃa mejorar.

Faltó aclarar que en el dÃa feriado no habÃan servicios como limpieza y desayuno.
Stayed Saturday to Monday. Poor check in, very slow, staff appeared to lack interest in customers. An hour to get a room. On Sunday WiFi not available in our room all day. No solution given. In the early evening,no hot water. Callling to request help, we were told our building was not having hot water until Monday. Nobody informed us, maintenance never appeared and no solution given. PdelE has many options. Why bother returning to Solanas?

Buenas instalaciones, malos horario de checkin/out
Todo muy bien, una lastima los horarios de checkin (16 hs) y Checkout (10 hs) , donde a pesar de no haber mucha gente, exigen que se respeten en forma estricta.
La cabaña que me tocó no tenÃa buena presión de agua la ducha

Nice Option For Area
Nice option for the need to be in the area. The accommodations were sufficient. The restaurant was a highlight. The staff was quite friendly and we really appreciated their attentiveness. The resort is a 20 minute drive to Punta del Este. We spent a considerable amount of time there.

It appears that this "hotel" is undergoing some construction and renovations and may be improved once the lagoon and other updates are completed. Until then, I would not recommend staying here.

First thing the key didn't work in the lock, the toilet didn't flush and that was after they asked me to pay again. Then they wanted my receipt sent to me. This seems like a destination resort because there isn't much around. Taxi cabs are very expensive. The restaurant had very limited hours. The gentleman at the front desk was very patient and helpful as I don't speak Spanish

Excelente todo. La atención fue muy cálida por parte de todo el personal. Lo único que si se va en invierno hay que pedir estufa para el baño sobretodo si se va con niños porque no hay calefacción en el baño. Tienen un buenm mantenimiento de las instalaciones. Es un lugar recomendable.
