Playa Vik Jose Ignacio — Hotel in José Ignacio

I have very mixed feelings about this place. |The good : |Great location, |Futuristic design of hotel with attention to detail in furniture etc |Spacious suites with floor to ceiling windows, |Right on the beach,|Infinity pool with exceptional sunsets over it, |Staff members work hard and try to meet your needs. ||The bad: |Limited staff means important areas like reception are often left unattended. |There is refurbishment works as soon as you walk in so access to main building is tricker and also it’s not aesthetically pleasing to constantly see the construction. |In our 1,000$ a night suite, the aircon didn’t work and the heating couldn’t be switched off so it got to the point that we were sweating in a 28 degree room and had to stay in the room with the front door open to let air in.|The second night our blackout blinds were disabled by the staff without anyone informing us. They tried to get them to work but unsuccessfully and I asked how we are meant to sleep without them and the reply was « oh it’s ok, the sun doesn’t come up until 8am ». I thought that was a strange reply so I looked and the sunrise time was just before 6. And even if it WERE two hours later, for guests who are paying 1,000 a night, there should be no excuse for not being able to close the blinds. In the end, they found a room next door (with working blinds and a working aircon) which we moved into for the last night. |The gym has very old rusty equipment which needs changing asap. |Details in the rooms and hotel itself need some TLC- scuffing/ peeling paint/ dirty windows… just general neglect. |Food was not great. Especially breakfast which only had toasted bread at the « buffet » and the only thing you can request from the kitchen is eggs. For the price you are paying, a full menu would be nice. Also « cacio and Pepe pasta » is NOT plain pasta with a side of parmesan…||Overall, the hotel is gorgeous and location is stunning but I really wish the owners/ management would be more present to make it feel less neglected. I’ve put photos of both the good...

My stay at Playa Vik José Ignacio was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was in awe of the architecture—this place is an absolute architectural marvel. Sleek, art-filled, and effortlessly sophisticated, it’s truly a design lover’s dream.

I stayed in the Fuerteventura Suite, which overlooks both the infinity pool and the ocean. Waking up to that view felt like living inside a dream. The bathtub alone deserves its own mention—spacious & sculptural.

At night, the pool becomes pure magic—glimmering with twinkling lights that reminded me of a Rolls-Royce starlight ceiling. It truly felt like the stars had descended into the water.

As someone with dietary restrictions, I was thrilled to find that everything at the hotel is gluten-free (except for a cute little “gluten corner” at breakfast that made me smile). The food was delicious, nourishing, and beautifully presented.

The staff made the experience even more memorable. Always smiling, kind, and eager to help—they really make you feel at home.

Walking along the beach each day was deeply soothing, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover Vik Bahía just a few minutes away by foot. I visited their wellness center, The Shack, and loved every moment there.

Although La Susana was closed during my visit, everyone I’ve spoken to insists it’s the place to go—so I’ll definitely be back to experience it.

Highly recommend Playa Vik to anyone seeking beauty, serenity, and inspiration in one of the most special corners...

We stayed at Playa Vik for 4 nights what an experience. This ultra-modern resort is an architectural jewel with great artwork and amazing rooms. We were fortunate enough to have the room directly over the cantilevered infinity pool. At sunset, the pool area can get crowded with guests from Playa Vik and Bahia Vik taking pictures of the sunset. Our room had floor to ceiling windows that slid open by remote control for great photos of the sunsets.||Our room itself was amazing our walk-in closet was comprised of beautiful wood shelves and drawers the size of a small bedroom, the hallway as long as a bowling alley and an extremely comfortable bed looking out to the ocean. The bathroom was huge and beautifully designed. Probably the largest and most outstanding hotel or resort room we have ever stayed in and we have seen most of the world.||The included breakfast was delicious with a wide array of choices.||The staff was top notch and very helpful with anything we needed, they even made lunch and dinner reservations at all the restaurant we were interested in and had a typed list of these reservations when we checked in.||As an example of their amazing service one night our taxi was 10 minutes late showing up to take us to dinner. The next night they had a staff member with a car waiting for us a half hour ahead of time so there would be no delay.||This is what luxury...
