Nestled amidst pine and eucalyptus trees by the Rio de la Plata. Pan-Asia spa and dining promise temple-like peace. Championship golf, riding and a scenic river bank all await - a hop from Buenos Aires or Montevideo. Service is pure Four Seasons magic.

The Dining:

Pura, which means "temple", is the Resort's all-day restaurant, enticing guests with batik draperies and carved panels of Balinese mythical figures. The focal point is a glass mosaic pool, from which a Balinese spirit house rises. Private dining can be arranged in three corners of the restaurant by lowering batik draperies. Corner chandeliers lit with candles can also be raised or lowered according to guests' preferences. The floor is of white crystalline granite and blue Brazilian marble.

The Spa

Experience a unique philosophy in the art of well-being. Four Seasons Resort Carmelo introduces to this part of the southern hemisphere the balanced harmony influenced by yin and yang – the male and female balance in life; the sun and the moon; day and night. With simple, caring touches, we pay special attention to the senses: scents to help you feel alert yet peaceful, natural sounds to ease your mind, exotic colours and images ... our treatments will soothe and refresh mind, body and soul.

Outdoor Pool

The large outdoor swimming pool with double cascade is surrounded by custom-designed lounge chairs. Poolside lunches, snacks and beverages are available upon request.
