About Uruguay

The country is diverse. Montevideo is an old-world European style city with fine restaurants, colorful markets, sycamore-lined streets and a cultural scene second to none. Here you´ll encounter an honest, European culture that´s representative of what you´ll see throughout the country.

In Colonia, you´ll find that the original Portuguese settlement has been restored, and its residents have made it one of the finest examples of old colonial architecture in South America. With it´s year ´round tourist trade, Colonia is a great place to invest in a colonial restoration or a rental property.

Bordering the South Atlantic Ocean, Punta del Este has been South America´s premier beach resort for generations, with its well maintained beaches, exquisite restaurants, hotels, casinos, and events of every description. And perhaps the best part of Punta del Este is the extraordinary rental income you can generate on properties there, with many apartment owners getting high-season monthly rents of $6,500 and higher.


But if you´re looking for something on the ocean that´s a little more tranquil, you´ll find in Rocha long, stretches of lonely, pristine beaches along the coast where you can stroll for hours without seeing any type of development at all.

In between, you´ll find thousands of square miles of rolling pampas - perfect for ranching - interspersed with clean, bright towns and cities reminiscent of the American Midwest. Here in the heartland, you can still buy this prime ranchland for around $100 per acre.
