We loved the location of this property. It is very private and scenic. The views are wonderful. We did not have a car, but the Uber and taxi services were quick and convenient. Also very reasonable if you just need a quick trip into town.

A pousada é incrível, fica bem próxima ao centrinho e aos principais restaurantes, mas dentro dela parece que você está no meio da mata. O café da manhã é simples mas é ótimo, tudo de excelente qualidade, além de que o hotel deixa disponivel chá, café, e alguns snacks, com destaque especial para o biscoito amanteigado com goiabada que é maravilhoso. Há um espaço ótimo da piscina, que mesmo que com frio, é delicioso para soltar o pet, aproveitar o sol e tomar um vinhozinho. Super recomendo!

No geral achei boa a estadia. Pontos positivos: beleza do local, atendimento prestativo do time da cozinha, qualidade das refeições. Pontos a melhorar: atendimento do time da recepção (deveria ser mais amigável, simpático); forma de pagamento (foi cobrado parte na plataforma e a outra parte foi cobrada diretamente no hotel, na chegada - isso, além de antipatico, gera confusão aos hóspedes), o que conversa com o comentário anterior; aquecimento da piscina interna (não estava tão quente e o dia nem estava frio); quartos internos já merecem uma renovação, para melhorar o odor e algumas questões estruturais, como o sanitário meio “solto”.
