Place is old and sorely in the need of renovation! The toilet back up and was full of fecal matter and we had to move to another room. The other room looks like it had not been renovated for 40 years. They had rugs on the floor that were dirty and smelled like feet. Nobody! Not a single staff member could speak anything other than Portuguese! The only good thing was the breakfast, but it was overcrowded!

The staff was very respectful, helpful, knowledgeable, kind, and patient. There was a language barrier, so I could not use the phone in my room. The front desk staff used a translation service on their cell phones to assist me. They even assisted me with one issue that had nothing to do with the hotel. They were available to me every day for assistance. I felt I was calling on them too often, but they insisted on helping me. All the other staff was also excellent...room cleaners, restaurant, front door, etc.

Fora de série, nossa segunda estada por aqui. Está ainda melhor que na anterior. Destaque para a vista incrível, piscina e café da manhã!

A localização do hotel é muito boa, apesar da praia em frente ao hotel ser repleta de corais. O café da manhã é diversidficado e saboroso e possui uma bela vista do mar. Jantamos uma noite no hotel e foi bem satisfatório. A limpeza e organizção dos quartos é excelente, respeitam os horários e interesses dos hóspedes. Os funcionários são gentis e solícitos. O único ponto negativo da hospedagem é o check in, lento e demorado... achamos meio arcaico.

Hotel muito bem localizado, poderia ser mais conservado. O ar condicionado não tinha controle de temperatura no apartamento, o que fazia o quarto ficar extremamente frio.
