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.
