Beachside lunches, wild horses, and a new Turrell installation
Photo-Illustration: The Strategist; Photo: Anna Polonsky Everyone knows that person who spends weeks sniffing around travel blogs, going deep into Tripadvisor rabbit holes, collecting Google docs from friends of friends, and creating A Beautiful Mind–style spreadsheets to come up with the best vacations/itineraries possible.
Posada del Faro Book at Booking.com Buy Camino José Ignacio Book at Booking.com Buy 7 p.m.: Explore the natural beauty of Garzón Before heading to dinner, Francis showed us the countryside surrounding the village of Garzón. We were in awe of the vastness and natural beauty there. I can’t imagine people visiting José Ignacio and missing all these landscapes only 30 minutes away. It’s truly a part of the experience for us.
3 p.m.: Pick up local knitwear in town Before leaving town for the day, I stopped by Paula Martini’s Bajo El Alma Taller , my favorite store in town. Her clothes are made between Uruguay and Argentina, and she’s the only one who can convince me to buy beachwear. It’s an investment, but the pieces are so stunning that they also work as regular dresses in an urban setting. Don’t overlook the knits, too — I scored a gigantic knitted scarf there a few years back, and it saves me during NYC winters.
8 p.m.: Stop by Marismo for an open-fire dinner We excitedly went to Marismo , a truly magical spot at night. Chef Fede Desseno used to work for Francis Mallmann; most of his food is cooked on fire, and he and his life-work partner Nati’s restaurant is a real staple in José Ignacio. The empanadas are great there, too. I always order their shrimp and the memorable provoleta: a provolone-style, semi-hard cheese that is made super-crispy outside in the brick oven.
7 p.m.: Check out the new James Turrell Skyspace We walked by the new James Turrell installation at the hotel Posada Ayana . Reservations are mandatory to get inside , and the light show in there, a play with the sunset and sunrise outside, are apparently a must. 4 p.m.: See a Christo before heading home We finally checked out MACA, the new contemporary museum founded by the Achtugarry, which opened earlier this month a little outside of José Ignacio. The museum itself is not 100 percent finished, so we were a little disappointed, but there’s an interesting Christo exhibition up, and the landscaping outside is really beautiful. A nice walk among the sculpture garden is worth it if you’re in the area.
