Única ressalva: equipe de funcionários responsáveis pelo restaurante demonstrou pouco caso ao servir a mim e demais colegas (incluindo 5 crianças) hospedados ao solicitarmos uma refeição à noite. Justificaram que o restaurante já estava "quase fechando" e que por isso tínhamos que acelerar os pedidos. Nos atenderam mal, a carne servida (picanha) estava nitidamente estragada. Após nos servirem, simplesmente fecharam todo o restaurante e foram embora. Tudo o que sobrou da refeição, louças sujas, tudo ficou exposto na área externa do restaurante.

Atendimento impecável. Mesmo com nosso voo sendo apenas à noite, conseguimos utilizar toda a estrutura do hotel durante o dia. Além disso, disponibilizaram um quarto de apoio para banho antes de irmos ao aeroporto. Esse cuidado fez toda a diferença na experiência. A localização é pé na areia de uma praia tranquila. E é literalmente de frente para a balsa, com acesso fácil às demais praias da região. Há vans em frente ao hotel, funcionando o tempo todo, o que facilita muito a logística, com tarifa de apenas R$ 6. Foi uma estadia muito confortável, prática e acolhedora. Recomendo.

É a segunda vez que ficamos no hotel e gostamos no geral ao que se refere a estrutura, café da manhã, pé na areia e facilidade para se locomover aos demais pontos turísticos da região. Mas gostaria de colocar um ponto de melhoria. Tem que ter um controle sobre os hóspedes que ficam reservando lugar na praia e na piscina. As vezes, até nos dois lugares ao mesmo tempo. Chegamos na piscina às 10 da manhã e de umas 8 mesas não tinha nenhuma Ocupada a não ser pelos pertences que deixam pra reservar. Se não existe colaboração por parte dos hóspedes é dever do hotel fazer este controle.

O quarto tem um tamanho adequado, sendo que os pontos positivos são o ar condicionado novo e as camas. O banheiro precisa de reforma, e a TV tem que ser maior e ter uma boa imagem. A limpeza do quarto peca em relação aos copos, os quais não são limpos. O restaurante tem comida boa, mas o ideal seria ter mais opções de prato. Além disso, a carta de vinhos é restrita e mesmo os vinhos que nela consta nem sempre tem.

Quarto confortável e limpo. Equipe muito atenciosa. A cozinha é boa também e com preços razoáveis para a localidade (tudo é caro lá). Estrutura de praia ruim com cadeiras velhas. Café da manhã a desejar: o café finaliza às 10 horas e lota por volta das 09:30. Os itens acabam e não há reposição. Pãrs futos e do dia anterior esquentados. Por isso não dei 05 estrelas na avaliação.
