The view was absolutely amazing. Breakfast was excellent, and the cost was incredibly reasonable. The rooms have a floor to ceiling windows that is directly over the rocks overlooking the beach, that lights up at night. The included breakfast increases the value by quite a lot in my opinion. I will be back. The sounds of the waves crashing on the rocks and the wind blowing are fairly loud white noise, that is very soothing to me, but could be something for some people to consider. The hotel front desk staff always had someone that spoke English to service me, so there were no communication issues.

Great staff ate the reception and restaurant. Breakfast was great! Beautiful view of Guarujá beach! Hotel needs updating. Very few snacks in the room in case you have a late night check in.

Front desk doesn’t speak a word of English. They suggested parking outside in front of the hotel and our car was towed.
Not getting into the deeper side if it! There was a seeious situation going on with us and the manager handled it in the most professional way going above and beyond to come a solution for the matter!

O melhor foi a vista do mar! Estava muiiiito frio, e o ar condicionado não funciona no quente 😩. As janelas são bem antigas, não são antiruído, portanto chega uma hora que o barulho do mar atrapalha para dormir
O quarto, dado o valor pago é de dimensões ridiculamente diminutas, no box do banheiro não é possível se ensaboar a contento de tão pequeno que é; ademais, a tampa do sanitário é incompatível com a cuba, além de estar rasgada. A TV não dispõe de canais à cabo.
O café da manhã foi servido na mesa e contava com itens que, nitidamente, eram de dias anteriores (quiçá vencidos).
Para um hotel com o preço que cobra é ridículo não contar com garagem, ou qualquer espaço de lazer.
Não só fiquei decepcionado com as instalações, como NUNCA MAIS VOLTAREI e NÃO RECOMENDO.
FUJAM!!!!

Habitación Limpia , ubicación perfecta y grandes vistas , solo el personal del desayuno no fue atento , estuve sentado 10 minutos h estaba vacío el lugar y nunca me atendieron. Lástima por ese punto pero fuera de ello todo bien.
Hotel excelente, vista para o mar e tudo funcionando, porém sem estacionamento
O hotel é excelente, bem organizado, tudo muito bem cuidado e funcionando perfeitamente. A vista para o mar é linda e no geral não tenho do que reclamar. Nós gostamos bastante da estadia.
Porém, o único ponto negativo (e que atrapalhou muito) foi a questão do estacionamento. Quando cheguei no hotel, por volta de 10 e pouco da noite, fui informado na recepção que não havia estacionamento disponível. Confesso que talvez tenha sido falha minha não ter observado isso no momento da compra, mas o problema foi que só avisaram depois que eu já tinha feito o pagamento e passado o cartão. Se eu soubesse antes, com sinceridade, eu teria ido embora e procurado outro lugar.
O recepcionista apenas informou que não tinha vaga e que eu poderia parar “no máximo até determinadas placas”, mas como é região de praia e com muito movimento, não tinha lugar para estacionar. Fiquei rodando um bom tempo até conseguir achar uma vaga mais ou menos, e ainda assim com insegurança, pois vi vários carros sendo multados e até guinchados por conta disso.
Na minha opinião, pela categoria e pelo valor da diária, é uma falha grande não oferecer estacionamento ou pelo menos deixar isso extremamente claro antes do hóspede pagar.
Fora isso, o hotel é realmente muito bom e foi uma ótima experiência. Mas essa parte do estacionamento precisa melhorar.
PONTOS NEGATIVOS: Wifi fraca no quarto, chave do quarto é disponibilizada somente uma, embora erámos em 2, quarto mais pequeno que parecia nas fotos, banheiro minusculo, toalhas de rosto colocavam sempre 1 embora eramos 2 hospedes. Chegamos e ninguem deu nenhuma informação sobre o estavelecimento, como cadeiras, toalhas e guarda sol. Depois de 3 dias pagando separado por guarda sol e cadeira ficamos sabendo da parceria deles. Precisa informar os hóspedes sobre tudo que pode ser util a eles (turismo). Outros hóspedes ouvindo video com som alto no restaurante, não veio ninguém falar nada.
PONTOS POSITIVOS: A vista do quarto de frente para o mar maravilhosa, funcionários simpáticos, café da manhã maravilhoso, o restaurante muito bom, localidade boa.
