Precioso hotel y amabilidad del personal.
Pros:

La amplitud de las habitaciones y limpieza.

Cons:

Casi nadie habla Español, y para un hotel de 5 estrellas hay un buffet escaso y poco variado, y el bar de la piscina era un mostrador para pedir bebidas con un solo camarero.

3 estrelas
Pros:

Quartos espaçosos, cama confortável, duas casas de banho no quarto, não se ouve qualquer barulho dentro dos quartos para a rua e vice versa. Staff de animação muito agradável. Quando partilhamos um aniversário fomos recebidos no quarto com um bolo e champanhe.

Cons:

Staff do restaurante muito inexperiente, muitos nem falam português. Algumas zonas do hotel desleixadas, casa de banho principal tem um lavatório partido, as portas dessa casa de banho não fecham na totalidade, paredes dos corredores sujas e partidas nalgumas zonas, indicações de zonas partidas. Zona da piscina não é limpa, papéis de palhinhas e beatas de cigarro deixadas no chão durante vários dias. Tudo incluído só inclui caipirinha em termos de cocktails.
