Desapontado

Deixou a desejar. O encanamento do chuveiro que escoa a agua estava entupida, virava uma poça de agua e nao descia. Falei com a recepção e disse que iria arrumar, enviou alguem mas nao adiantou, precisei reclamar uma segunda vez para enviar a manutenção mas demorou mais de uma manhã. A água para tomar banho, do vaso sanitário e da pia para escovar os dentes era amarelada. Caiu a luz e nao tinha um gerador ou um plano de adequação, passou quase 1 dia inteiro sem luz por falta de manutenção das árvores que tem na pousada causando a queda se um galho na chuva na rede elétrica. Mas a pousada é uma gracinha e a funcionária responsável pelo cafe da manha, a Patricia é fenomenal. Cobram taxa de estadia de pet que é justa se for para cobrir manutenção ou algo do genero mas nao proporcionou nada, nem auxilios, nem manutenção e nada que justificasse a taxa.

Adorei

O hotel é ótimo. Boa acomodação com roupas de cama e limpeza ótima. Funcionária do café super cordial, e a variedade de produtos não deixa a desejar, só achei que o café poderia estar disponível mais cedo, para atender aqueles que querem fazer outras atividades e aproveitar a manhã. O cardápio de praia poderia ter mais opções de cerveja e snacks fáceis de consumir na praia. Outra questão é sobre a água do local, realmente a água é mais ferrosa e para quem tem cabelo claro como o meu pode acabar tendo variação de cor, acho válido inclusive, a pousada colocar um alerta para os hóspedes em relação a isso. Outra sugestão é avaliar colocar academia na pousada, muitos hóspedes treinam e isso pode ser fator de decisão. No mais, não há do que se reclamar, podem se hospedar sem medo, pousada beira mar com o melhor atendimento. Amei a estadia e voltaria com certeza.

A estrutura do hotel é muito boa, porém o local está desleixado. No dia que chegamos o restaurante estava fechado e o bar também. No segundo dia como estava chovendo, o funcionário do hotel disse que foi acordado, e que não gostaria de estar trabalhando pois estava chovendo. O local de ficar perto da praia nem sequer estava arrumado para nós receber, não tiveram coragem de colocar umas música. Não tinha água quente durante 3 dias, e no último dia a água acabou. Graças a Deus as funcionárias do café eram boas de serviço. O local está faltando gestão, com o tempo não sobrará nada.

Barulho e tremor.

Contratamos quarto com 1 cama de casal e 1 de solteiro mas entregaram um quarto diferente do contratado. O quarto oferecido tinha um barulho e um tremor na parede que não parava e gerou um desconforto durante toda a estadia. Comunicados do problema não tomaram qualquer providência e disseram que era assim mesmo e que nem todo mundo se incomodava com o barulho. Orientaram afastar a cama da parede para não sentir o tremor nas costas. Recomendo para que, se forem se hospedar nesse lugar, pedirem pra ficar nos quartos sem barulho e tremor de máquinas.

Dias maravilhosos !!

A Villa Zena é uma pousada confortável, localizada em uma das praias mais agradaveis de Arraial. Na maré baixa se forma uma piscina na frente. O café da manhã é uma experiência a parte, com 99 % dos itens feitos na casa, com muito capricho. A nova piscina localizada ao lado do bar de praia é uma delicia, e o novo horário do restaurante ficou ótimo, agora vai até as 22 h. O ponto a destacar de modo geral é a simpatia de toda a equipe, do pessoal do bar de praia, das meninas do café, da recepção, a Patricia da governança, o Danilo. Nos sentimos sempre bem recebidos e voltaremos sempre !
