I spent 5 days in Punta Rocas, 46 km south of Lima and from there I explored the whole area, from Cruz de Hueso (San Bartolo), over Santa Rosa Alto and Punta Negra, up to Punta Hermosa. In these locations one can find every stage of urbanisation and improvisation: from future projects to abandonment.
As I said earlier, I am interested in chaotic growings of the beach resorts south of Lima, along the coastal desert strip at the Pacific Ocean. Many sites are built where there have never been towns before, with no water and no vegetation. Absurdly, they are often thought and projected as what one thinks could be a typical caribean beach paradises. Many times, too, the projects remain as projects for years and years, or are executed but afterwards turn out to be inviable and unmaintainable in the harsh enviorenment of the desert and the corroding forces of the sea.
In this series of 25 photos I wanted the view of the ocean to be a common and uniting factor, as well as the overpowering presence of the desert - the sand, the dust, the salt and the humidity - and the colors of the sand, the dust and the salt and the taints and shades of the humidity - which alltogether condition the life and constructions of and in these places...
And furthermore, I wanted to show, how these resorts are conceived with their front towards the Ocean, all the while the Rear Side - that faces the desert is totally blind and death and somehow taken for granted, that no one will ever look at the back side of the houses - so it is a place of desolation and accumulation of garbage. That is, people now adays, unlike the pre-columbians, have no relation with the desert, which is conisdered a place of dumping, void and nothingness...

I spent a week in gorgeous Breathless Punta Cana Resort & Spa.
I thought this little palm was very photogenic.

Adorable is what comes to mind to guests who have stayed at Punta Rosa Boracay Resort with its beach home design and homey ambiance. Located near Boracay’s Boat Station 1 in the northern area of the island, the hotel is perfect for guests seeking peace and solitude and away from noise and partying that Boracay is known for. The hotel offers spacious individual type accommodation, each with terraces so guests could enjoy the breathtaking view of Boracay shores. Guests could enjoy the gorgeous rooftop terrace for dining and a relaxation lounge is provided as well so the guest could watch the serene view of the waves crashing against the cliffs of the northern part of Boracay.
For a boutique hotel, it offers very few amenities and the price is a little steep. Location is 15-20 minutes walk away from the party scene of Boracay and for guests who would like to enjoy casual dining, fine music and a few drinks. Late night party-goers might want to reconsider staying at this hotel since it gets quite dark on the walk back to the hotel.
Hotel room rates from $70 to $230 a night.
