A beautiful beach resort
Review of Punta del Este by TrevelyanUK

Advantages: Lovely beaches, lots of big expensive looking buildings,
Disadvantages: Relatively expensive living, can get very crowded in summer

Sounds like a good place to visit. I would love to see the amethyst as it's my birthstone. I couldn't possibly go there though if I can't have my Cadburys chocolate tasting as it should! xx by manlybeach

You have really been to some great places but I wish you could inject your personal feelings and impressions more into your reviews - it would add so much. If you can I will rate again but for now it feels in many places like a travel guidebook excerpt. Sorry by andrewfleminguk
