At a Glance
Just across the road from the dunes, this simple compound of stone and wood structures is best for those in search of a bare-bones retreat.
Review
It’s no surprise that Casa Suaya, owned by L.A.-based restaurateur Adolfo Suaya, boasts a spectacular restaurant, but the real star is the charming hotel, adored by hip young South Americans. Suaya’s goal was to build an oceanfront getaway for friends who enjoy the sand and surf, and the resulting property meshes well with his vision. Rooms range from standard stone-walled rooms to family bunaglows, and all are done up according to a simple but chic seaside aesthetic (think white linens, wicker chairs and white-painted wood furnishings). For those who can’t go without their spa time, the hotel has a masseuse on hand for beachfront treatments. However, this is not the place for those expecting a full-service, five-star hotel.
Note: As with all the José Ignacio properties, there are caveats. Those interested in a vacation here should first read our José Ignacio: Who Should Go or contact our Bookings Team for advice.
Who Should Stay
Those wishing to be located near town but who don’t want to pay the prices of the Vik properties.
