Which area of Punta Del Este is best to stay in for cheap hotels?

Many local businesses remain open, but without the intense demand of January and February, you'll find better value on everything from dining to excursions. You can enjoy the beaches and explore attractions like the Casapueblo without the throngs of tourists, often at a fraction of the cost.
