O ponto forte da pousada sem duvida é a paisagem que é muito bonita, mas o café da manhã é simples, com poucas variedades, o quarto é bem pequeno, assim como o banheiro. Equipe de funcionários é atenciosa.

O chalé era maravilhoso, climatizado, estrutura e espaço ótimos. Duas coisas me incomodaram, uma fugia do controle da pousada, os hóspedes no café da manhã foram bem incômodos. A outra, acredito que a pousada deva se reorganizar, o rapaz que faz o corte da grama, começou a cortar a grama as 9h30 ao lado do nosso chalé, fazendo barulho. Quem procura um espaço como essa pousada quer aproveitar o silêncio, a natureza! Entre o check out e o check in eles tem uma janela de 2 horas pelo menos, podem tentar organizar esses barulhos nesse horário?! Fora isso a pousada é ótima.

Pousada muito linda e aprazível!

A pousada se situa em local privilegiado, com muito verde e área externa muito bem cuidada. Há quadras, sauna e piscina natural, porém não utilizamos e portanto não posso opinar. Há uma trilha de 930m que e íngrime e acredito que deveria ter algum funcionário acompanhando para o caso de uma necessidade. No geral, o espaço é muito lindo e bastante aprazível. Porém não vi opções para acessibilidade, muitos degraus sem rampas. O cardápio é saboroso e variado e recomendo à noite o fondue de carne. Senti falta no café da manhã de um café e leite de bule pois o de máquina não é gostoso. A equipe é muito acolhedora e simpática. Especial agradecimento ao garçom Mauro que nos atendeu muito bem. Quanto ao chalé, muito confortável, com hidromassagem individual e lareira, ar condicionado frio e quente e amenidades por refil. O que pecou foi a limpeza do chalé que não estava boa. Logo que chegamos vimos fios de cabelo e chão não muito limpo. Mas pedimos no dia seguinte e a camareira caprichou. A torneira da pia não fecha totalmente e desperdiça água. O colchão tinha um buraco no meio o que nos provocou dores lombares. Nos recepcionaram com duas garrafas de água no chalé mas não repunham. O chalé é confortável e oferece privacidade, porém ao reservar não nos atentamos para a hidromassagem que era individual e depois vimos que há chalés com hidro dupla. Porém, no geral, gostamos bastante e esperamos voltar um dia e que essas pequenas intercorrências estejam resolvidas.
