With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Montevideo, 20 miles away, has to offer. Among the first stops you make here should be Pocitos Beach, Tres Cruces Shopping Center and Solis Theater. Don’t forget about Piriapolis either! Just 35 miles away, Piriapolis Beach, Cerro del Toro and San Antonio Hill are non-negotiable stops here.
