Disliked: Cleanliness
Breakfast was very limited if you remove the abundance of sugary cakes on offer. (You have to pay for coffee too…. ) The bedding was dirty blood and urine stains… we got bitten alive by mosquitoes and in general the place had no vibe. On the positive side the pool area is lovely including the sauna and the food / drinks at lunchtime were always nice. Food and drink are circa twice the price of Rio prices.

I’ve been to Aretê Hotel with my family several times before, and will return for sure. This time though a water pipe broke in one of the rooms and water invaded many other rooms, including mine. Everything that was on the floor got soaked. Staff was very quick and helpful to sort it out. So, this event in my opinion doesn’t erase the good history of stays we had there before

El hotel definitivamente no es para alguien que no esté en carro, está a 20 min del pueblo, es una zona residencial, pero sin nada alrededor, no hay restaurantes ni tiendas, todo lejos. Solo sugiero quedarse ahí si tiene carro. En la noche además por seguridad sugieren no caminar en la zona, es muy desolada. Conseguir Uber es difícil para salir del hotel. El hotel tiene un beach club, está a 10 minutos en carro , cierran temprano a las 5 pm en invierno. La atención y amabilidad del personal de Recepción no está a la altura de un hotel de esa categoria y precio. El desayuno es muy básico. La habitación es cómoda, está en buenas condiciones, pero en general para el precio que cobran si lo medimos para estándares internacionales el hotel ofrece un servicio muy mediocre que no vale la pena.

ブージオスの新開発地区だと聞いています。ヨットやクルーズの停泊場の近くにありますが、とても静かに過ごせました。 エッセンシャルオイルを使ったマッサージも受けましたが、リラックスできて素晴らしかったです。 部屋も清潔で使いやすく落ち着いた雰囲気です。 受付のスタッフはもちろんのこと、レストランのアテンドも品があって気が利いています。 そして、何より強調したいのは料理です。夕食にいただいた白身魚のグリルとゆで野菜は味付けも素晴らしく焼き具合茹で具合共に絶妙でした。朝食も内容も質も良かったです。変に余計な盛り付けはなくセンスの良い並べ方で幸せな気分になりました。 ブージオスの観光スポットも良いですが、リラックスできる空間を味わいたければ絶対にここがお薦めです。また利用させていただきたいと思います。
