Renting a Cabaña

8 years ago

My wife and I are spending a year in Uruguay with occasional short trips to other countries. We were put off by the traditional rental scene involving months of prepaid rent, So we had a discussion with Annemarie, who runs Cabañas Anruma near Minas. She usually rents out cabins for short terms like weekends. We came to an agreement for renting a cabin by the month for as long as we need it. It is a nice place on 11 hectares with a lake, swimming pool, horses, cows, and sheep. We even started a small kitchen garden near our cabin. It is about 7 kilometers outside Minas in Lavalleja. A taxi to town is around 300 Pesos, but we found it more convenient to buy a motorcycle for trips around the area. We use the omnibus for longer trips like Punta or Montevideo. Cabañas Anruma is on Google Maps and is easily searched in your browser. I have no financial interest in the operation, but thought it might be useful to let others know of this option.
