Absolutely perfect
We loved absolutely everything about this lovely place. The cottage is so charming, the setting is like a secret garden, and the location was perfect for us: secluded and private, but within walking distance of the beaches, which are spectacular. Karen and Ken are superb hosts, welcoming and informative, but not at all intrusive. The bed and pillows were just right for us, the kitchen had the necessary tools for making breakfast and simple meals. DeVoto’s grocery store just a few miles away provided all of the necessary ingredients. We absolutely hated to leave.

Two weeks in paradise
My wife and I were attracted to this property by its description and positive reviews. The hosts and property were exceptional. Out of a possible 10 we give it a 12! Our arrival time was delayed by a cancelled flight, and they went out of their way to meet us and help us get settled. The setting is lovely and spacious, and every amenity was available to us. The hosts also provided very helpful information about the area, but allowed us to enjoy privacy and independence during our 14-day stay. The location is convenient to the beach by walking, and to restaurants and shopping by car. In every way it exceeded our expectations. Recommend with no hesitation.

Wonderful cottage, wonderful hosts
Highly recommend. The property is charming on an estate in one of the most desirable areas of Punta del Este - close to everything but far enough away that you can breathe the cool Antarctic breezes while you listen to the birds chirp in the lovely English-style garden. Karen and Ken are excellent hosts and lovely humans.

A garden oasis
What a beautiful property that was so well built and arranged with fabulous gardens and a pool surrounding the casita. The casita was absolutely lovely and very comfortable with everything needed for any duration of a stay. Our extended time of 30 days was exceptional, peaceful and serene. As active walkers, the distance to the city center or the beach was not a problem and Uber was readily available if you don’t rent a car. They also provided bicycles for use and periodically took us to the local Féria. Kenny and Karen were the most gracious hosts imaginable providing much insight about the areas and things to do and see. They were very generous with their time and attention on even the smallest of matters. We really enjoyed Kenny’s vegetable gardening overview and explanations of his other building endeavors. Karen was just a WhatsApp question away if any type of need arose. She was very responsive, attentive and fun to spend time with as was Kenny. Thanks for a truly memorable experience to our new good friends in Uruguay!

Fabulous stay and Wonderful Hosts
I don’t know how we could have had any better stay in Punta del Este. Karen and Ken were awesome and so sweet and helpful. The casita was perfect with all of the accompaniments of home as well as a beautiful outdoor living space. We loved the 2 dogs that greeted us each morning while we were outside having our coffee.

The Best!!
We absolutely loved our time at Karen and Kenny’s casita. It’s beautifully designed- so tastefully done with many seating areas inside and out. We spent many hours reading and lounging by the pool and staring at the beautiful garden which contained lots of vegetables and herbs ripe for the picking. The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need-including 3 different types of coffee makers-and the coffee! Upon arrival there was fruit, bread and cheese. The refrigerator was stock with milk, juice, water-much appreciated! We ate in many times -there’s a wonderful barbecue under a trellis -very romantic! The location couldn’t be better-The neighborhood is lovely with beautiful old houses and a short walk to a stunning beach. The place is so gorgeous you never want to leave-which is what happened-we extended our stay! Can’t say enough about our gracious hosts. Thank you Kenny and Karen! We’d love to come back!

The photos of this property do not do it justice. It is even more charming and special. The have thought of everything to make a stay their place completely comfortable and serene. The location is walkable to a wonderful beach and other sights are close by. Our vacation went way to quickly. We are so fortunate to have this memory and hope to return. It’s a long way from NYC...but worth the time to get here. Thank You Karen and Ken...and their wonderful dog Gardell for welcoming us.

Pristine Guest House in the Woods
The property is actually even nicer than it looks in the pictures! Spacious bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, big comfy bed, and a great little patio area next to the pool. It's just a 5 minute drive from the city, and pleasant walking distance to the beach. Karen and her husband are fantastic hosts! They'll give as much attention or privacy as you desire. Looking forward to staying here again next time we're in Punta del Este.

Perfect retreat
We spent 11 days in this lovely casita, and hated to leave. It is nestled into the lush garden of a beautiful old home near the beach. The casita is beautifully designed, with covered terrace, sitting area, eat in kitchen, bedroom and bath.. It is beautifully constructed and very comfortably and tastefully appointed. There is a small pool too. The casita is just blocks from the beach, and an easy drive to shops and restaurants..Karen and Ken are gracious hosts, who showed us their favorite markets and hosted a parrilla in their beautiful outdoor barbeque area. They made our stay in Punta del esta feel so comfortable, that it was truly like being at home away. Highly recommend this little corner of heaven. We definitely hope to return@ .

Two Nights in Punta del Este
This private guest house is perfect! The owners are wonderful hosts and the property is beautiful. This felt like staying at a friend's house - with complete privacy and comfort. The stay was a perfect introduction to the area - allowing us to have a quiet retreat from the condos and apartment hustle and bustle of Punta. We used Uber perfectly to go into town when we wanted and came "home" when we wanted peace and quiet. Thank you for a perfect stay in Punta del Este.

Wonderful stay!
My wife and I had the pleasure of staying here for a very pleasant 8 nights. The hosts, Karen and Ken, were more than accommodating and helpful. The quest house is located in a very nice quiet neighborhood and close to all the beaches and attractions. It was nice to take walks along the quiet and unhurried streets with the fragrance of abundant flowers in the air. Also worth noting is the very private pool and patio area located conveniently just out our door. Two big thumbs up!

Lots of room to spread out with full living room and kitchen and beautiful bathroom, great bed and lovely linens, attention to all the details.

Better than a Five Star Hotel
My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at Viejo Golf. Everything described is accurate and far exceeds the description. If you are looking for a private, secluded romantic place then you have found it. The pool is inviting and the gardens and birds are so lovely. The hosts Karen and Kenny are wonderful kind people. Their villa is close to beaches, shopping, golf and restaurants. It is perfect. Very well kept and clean, well stocked with everything you need including good wifi. Our only regret was we wished we could have stayed longer. It was the perfect place.

A Lovely Stay!!
My husband and I have just returned from a wonderful 10 day stay at Viejo Golf. The whitewashed brick and terra cotta casita, lovingly built by the owners, Kenny and Karen, has been thoughtully equipped so that one can experience a "home away from home", during one's travels. The wood fired stove provided a delightful ambiance and kept us warm and comfy during the chilly July evenings in the Southern Hemispere and the king size bed was extremely comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped and enabled us to "dine at home" whenever we tired of going out for dinner. However, the best part of our stay was getting to know the hosts, Kenny and Karen. We had the good fortune of spending several evenings, chatting, imbibing and laughing with these two delightful souls. It was truly one of the best trips we've taken and definitely the loveliest hosts we've crossed paths with. You won't be disppointed if you decide to choose Viejo Golf.
