INSIDER #11: Summer never ends in JOSÉ IGNACIO
Golden days, immersive retreats, and unforgettable experiences. Discover why late summer is the best season in José Ignacio. 🌊

A SEASON OF IMMERSIVE RETREATS
Long after summer fades elsewhere, José Ignacio remains bathed in golden light. The warm ocean invites long, unhurried swims, the countryside hums with life, and sunsets stretch endlessly over the horizon. This is the season when time slows, when nature and luxury meet in perfect harmony; when a retreat is more than just an escape, but a moment to realign, reconnect, and rediscover what matters most.
For those seeking privacy and renewal, Playa Vik and Bahia Vik offer intimate beachfront villas and bungalows, where the sound of the waves set the rhythm of the day. For executive retreats, Estancia Vik transforms meetings into experiences, where strategy is refined over a fireside asado, and inspiration comes from open landscapes rather than conference walls. Families, too, find their place here, whether gathering under the stars at Bahia Vik or riding horseback through the rolling countryside. Every retreat, whether personal or professional, is crafted to be as unique as those who seek it.
Now is the time to embrace this season of effortless luxury. When the days are warm, the crowds have faded, and José Ignacio reveals itself at its most authentic. Contact our team today and let us design the perfect retreat, tailored to every moment and every need.

The Gran Asado Uruguayo: Fire, Flavor & Tradition
Few experiences capture the spirit of José Ignacio like the Gran Asado at Estancia Vik. A feast of grass-fed meats, slow-cooked over open flames, paired with local wines and served under vast, starlit skies. The scent of woodsmoke, the warmth of a shared table, and the flavors of the land: an invitation to experience Uruguay’s culinary heritage at its most authentic.

Vik & Arts Returns: A New Chapter in Creativity
After a remarkable first edition at Patio de las Moras, Vik & Arts continues its journey, this time at Playa Vik, where architecture and the ocean will create the perfect setting for artistic expression. The next edition welcomes Eva Claessens, whose work explores the human form through fluid, expressive silhouettes. An evening where art, place, and perspective merge into a singular experience.
