OUR STORY
Las Liebres sits at the highest point of Colonia del Sacramento, with the city of Buenos Aires silhouetted against the sky in the distance and surrounded by 27 hectares of land. 4000 square metres of which is the rich and productive 100% organic vegetable garden that supplies the restaurant, the essential basis of Hugo Soca’s cuisine. The house itself is a 1920’s mansion restored in detail with a restaurant on the first floor – under the gastronomic direction of Hugo and two living rooms. On the second floor are two stylish bedrooms and a library for the private use of the guests.

Eco Certifications
Just as we admire each of our hosts for their singularity, we appreciate that their sustainability journeys are also unique. Because of this, we do not require our hosts to have an eco certification or two under their belt, we simply guide them on improving their sustainable business practices one imperfect – but positive – step at a time. If a host has eco certifications they will be shown below, if not, then know we are working towards this together.
Organic Certificate
The vegetable garden at Las Liebres is certified Organic and supplies the kitchen.
NGOs & Local Impact Projects Supported
Each of our hosts strive to have a positive impact on their local communities. Some of our hosts already have established connections with local partners to enrich the lives and wellbeing of their communities, others are in the process of creating these long term relationships. If a host has local NGO connections they will be shown below, if not, then know we are working towards this together.
What our hosts say..
Transparency is essential if we are all going to grow and improve together and this is why we have dedicated this section to sharing what we love about each place and its hosts. We work with each of our hosts to improve their guest experiences, sustainability practices and local impact, this is where you can learn more about that along with what still needs to be improved, the measures being taken to ensure our hosts continue to move forward and every now and then we’ll come back to update you on their progress.

Las Liebres is at 40 meters above sea level, the highest point of the district of Colonia, and of close proximity to the historic district, the port, the promenade and Route 21. A habitable house of the four seasons; the entire second floor designed to offer a unique lodging experience.
Design that combines classic and contemporary and the latest technology in performance.
Two rooms of refined style: Skyla & Juanita. Private library room and terrace for exclusive use.
The restaurant is an integral proclamation in favour of the senses, the ideal place to free the senses and dream.
The flavours; unprecedented, complex, summon the light and the light summons the music, which gives a tenuous membrane to the conversations. The wines offer their wisdom. The restaurant is to the house as a wide avenue is to a city. From the terrace, the city of Buenos Aires is clearly silhouetted.
Pedro Melnitzky is the owner and General Manager; Argentinean, plastic artist, living in Uruguay for 14 years. It is he who conceived the Comarca, bit by bit, as a dream capable of creating a legacy. A man of the world, with a very fine sensibility for art, architecture, interior design and landscaping. Pedro has achieved in Las Liebres his own territory where good taste and harmony can be established.
Hugo Soca is the Gastronomic Director. Hugo has established himself as the most emblematic chef of Uruguayan cuisine. His books and television programs crown the success of his cuisine.
Lebrato Wine is the exclusive blend of Las Liebres, with which both hosts usually entertain their guests. A wine that sums up the whole universe of the region.
