The only reason to stay here is the location & a decent breakfast buffet. In all my travels I have not had such an uncomfortable bed & pillows, nor met such an inhospitable front desk attendant in Carlos. I mentioned a few issues after the first night of a 3 night stay, but nothing was done to help. We also had a double booking which they were no help resolving.

Great hotel in perfect location

We had a fantastic stay at Boa Vista! Firsty the location is perfect, 2min to the beach, cafes, bars, restaurants, and easy to get to city centre, a perfect inbetween spot. The staff were all lovely, breakfast was also great. Hotel is very clean and the room has a great shower! The roof top bar, terrace and pool are a great addition, it was never crowded, plently of loungers for a relaxing few hours in the sun. If you havent visited the area before, bring some walking shoes or trainers, the beach front walk is wonderful, you can walk for miles, its a very active area which we loved. There are also scooter hire spots all along the way for those that perfect not to walk, they are a great way to explore the area. We plan to come back again and stay at Boa Vista!

Lovely hotel away from the town, at the river mouth. Very comfortable room and bathroom. Nice rooftop snack bar with a lovely view towards the ocean. There are few restaurants around. The area is perfect for walks along the river or the ocean. I would recommend it to those who want to stay away from the busy area.
