This is an old property but appears they are attempting to make some needed upgrades. At night the hotel has no lights or signage if you are on the beach trying to remember where the hotel is. Overall an adequate, clean place and helpful staff. As usual for South America, many families so don’t expect an adults only experience.

Super atenciosos

A equipe é extremamente atenciosa. Nova reserva foi de apenas um dia e pedimos uma decoração para o aniversário de casamento e não mediram esforços, além da decoração, fizeram um bolo lindo e super gostoso, deixaram a temperatura do quarto excelente para a ocasião. Café da manhã com tapioca deliciosa, todos os funcionários atenciosos. Tenho apenas três observações: quartos sem isolamento acústico do corredor, falta som ambiente por toda área de lazer e obras em pleno feriado com bastante barulho.

Reclamação sobre atraso no check-in

Reclamação sobre atraso no check-in e falta de cordialidade dos atendentes Comprei três diárias com entrada no dia 17/04/2025 às 14h e saída no dia 20/04/2025 às 12h. Cheguei ao hotel antes do horário do check-in e, ao fazer o procedimento na recepção, fui informado de que o quarto ainda não estava pronto. Tivemos que aguardar até às 15h15 para finalmente acessar o quarto, ou seja, mais de uma hora após o horário previsto. Diante disso, perguntei ao atendente se, considerando o atraso na entrega do quarto, haveria tolerância no horário de saída. A resposta foi afirmativa, porém dada com bastante arrogância e má vontade. No entanto, no dia da saída, exatamente às 12h15, recebi uma ligação do hotel solicitando a desocupação imediata do quarto, sob a justificativa de que não havia qualquer tolerância prevista, independentemente do atraso na entrada. Expliquei que o atraso não foi causado por mim, mas sim pelo próprio hotel, e ainda assim fui tratado de forma ríspida, o que causou grande constrangimento para mim e minha família. Deixo aqui registrada minha insatisfação com a falta de organização, descaso com o cliente e o comportamento dos atendentes. Esperava mais respeito e profissionalismo, especialmente em um momento de lazer e descanso com minha família.

Razoável

Todos os funcionários estão de parabéns. São muito bem receptivos, treinados, todos eles nota 10. No primeiro dia tive a impressão que o quarto não estava limpo. Apenas no segundo dia que senti a sensação de limpeza. A cama de casal é duas camas de solteiro juntas. Os móveis são muito antigos. Precisam ser atualizados, o valor das estadias é caro para que oferecem. Hotel está em obras. Funcionando apenas uma piscina.

Hotel com grande potencial, necessita de melhorias

A parte externa do hotel está linda. Conservada, paisagismo bonito, piscina convidativa, bar molhado bacana. Os quartos estão desatualizados, bem antigos. Ocupamos 3 quartos e os 3 estavam com as mesmas condições. Mobiliário antigo, cama não muito confortável, banheiro com bom tamanho, mas também precisando de reformas. Café da manhã bom. Atendimento dos funcionários muito bom.
