“nice place, hard to find, lack of personality in service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2011

Definitely a nice place to stay. However finding it is quite hard. There are no signs on the road. You have to drive on dirt roads for quite some time to get there. The sourroundings are beautiful just like the rooms. Service is a little below average. More annoying is the lack of hospitality, no owner to meet you upon arrival and/or to help you with dinner reservations. The staff only speaks spanish. Breakfast is a little basic.

“Fabulous stay...however...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2011

This place is gorgeous and well-decorated. The suites are comfortable and it's definitely off the beaten path and relaxing. The breakfast is ample, though you should be specific about what you want and other guests went as far as shopping for the whole fruits that they wanted, handed it over to the cook and it was served in the mornings.

Two things we absolutely hated. They take cash only. This was in the finest print at the very bottom of the confirmation we received and we were not reminded of this at all over the three days until we went to check out and then had to chase down an ATM. (NOT EASY as the place is about 20 minutes from Punta) If you're spending $225 USD a night, you would think they could process a credit card.

Second, it is near impossible to locate this place. Do not trust google maps. I am uploading a map on the back of their business cards that conveniently, they don't give you until you arrive.

“LOVED our experience here!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2009

I just returned from my stay here and all I can say is WOW! The setting is spectacular and we stayed in the master suite on the second floor that has views of the countryside and the beach. The staff was amazing and very attentive and the decor and landscaping are perfect. The ultimate place to relax and although it is remote (on a dirt road) you are only 5-10 minutes from La Barra which is the best part of Punta and only 15 minutes to Jose Ignacio. The owners do speak English so not sure about previous reviews? I would definitely return!

“Lovely setting and rooms, cheerful staff with limited services”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 May 2009

A very romantic hi-design B&B type hotel. Wonderful grounds and pool etc with charming cottage set-up each with its own private garden/patio area.

Very helpful and very cheerful staff. But our limited Spanish was an issue as only the owners speak English. We had a few plumbing problems, and the TV never really worked right, and it was hard for us to explain but the whole staff was involved and trying hard to help us out.

Yet overall the hotel was most charming. The central lodge facility is very nice and a great location for breakfast or reading and taking in the amazing vistas. For a romantic getaway, Posada de Piedra would be hard to beat- but know, it's a world away from beach town scene of Punta Del Este.

Easier to get to than noted in earlier reviews, now it is marked a bit better, but it would seem that it is more than 2km off the main road. As they said- keep bearing to the right. and follow to the end...

And finally, remember, they only take cash, not credit cards and they are a very long way from an ATM
