Montevideo Gay Saunas & Cruising

May 15 2026

I have covered Montevideo's LGBTQ+ scene for misterb&b, and the gay sauna here serves South America's most progressive capital with a venue that matches that reputation: Toronto Sauna at Tacuarembó 1531 is Montevideo's largest and most popular gay sauna - a full-service venue with wet sauna, dry sauna, jacuzzi, salt mine, gym, bar, and themed event nights that run regularly through the year. Uruguay was the first country in Latin America to legalize same-sex marriage (2013), and Montevideo has an LGBTQ+ culture that reflects that legal and social progressiveness - multiple gay bars, a visible Pride, and a sauna scene that operates openly and without stigma. Prices run approximately $8-12 USD cash, which is accessible by any South American standard. The venue is busiest on weekends, particularly Saturday evenings, when themed nights draw a mixed age demographic. For accommodation close to the Ciudad Vieja and the gay bar area, book through misterb&b Montevideo. 🏳️‍🌈
