Punta Ballena is the headland where the Sierra de la Ballena meets the sea, between Portezuelo and Laguna del Diario, about 15 km from the Punta del Este peninsula and about 10 km from the airport. It is home to Casapueblo, the cliffside work of artist Carlos Páez Vilaró, and to the Arboretum Lussich, a 192-hectare forest open to the public. In our search, the area also includes Solanas, Portezuelo, Lomo de la Ballena and Las Cumbres and, further inland, Lapataia, Las Vertientes and Laguna del Sauce.
That is why the selection is so varied: houses with views of the bay and the sunset, lots in residential neighborhoods and chacras (small country estates) of several hectares between the hills and the lagoon.

Frequently asked questions
Can you build in Punta Ballena?
It depends on each parcel. Protection of the area keeps growing: in 2025 the Ministry of Environment turned down a 29-building complex, in October 2026 a request was filed to add it to the National System of Protected Areas (as filed, it would cover the headland and the coastal strip, not private property), and a local land-use plan is being drafted. Before buying, ask the Intendencia for the parcel's zoning rules.
How far is it from the airport and Punta del Este?
About 10 km from Laguna del Sauce airport and about 15 km from the Punta del Este peninsula by road. Montevideo is about 120 km away via the Interbalnearia highway.
What is Casapueblo?
It is the sculptural house that artist Carlos Páez Vilaró began building in 1958 on the cliffs of Punta Ballena. Today it is a museum, studio, gallery and hotel, and every evening it bids farewell to the sunset with a ceremony.
