TREASURE<br />
Recoup in Uruguay’s second largest city,<br />
Punta Del Este, best known for its resort lifestyle<br />
By Fabián W. Waintal<br />
Antonio Banderas, Shakira, George Clooney and Naomi<br />
Campbell have placed Punta del Este high up on their<br />
list, making it the ultimate escape in South America. It<br />
may be a 25-hour journey from Dubai, but the allure of<br />
sun, sand, beach and nightlife is what draws celebrities into this<br />
resort-city sited on a narrow peninsula in southeast Uruguay. With a<br />
luxury style ‘imported’ from Europe, Brazil and Argentina, fused<br />
with local flavor, it’s no surprise this place is being referred to as the<br />
St. Tropez of Uruguay. To get a feel of what to expect, we’ve<br />
rounded up activities for you and the family:<br />
