Estancia confortable y agradable
Pros:

Desayunos, la piscina y habitación en general, el personal muy amable y profesional.

Cons:

Por poner algo, la zona de aparcamiento era escasa de plazas y estrecho para maniobrar con coches un poco mas largos, aunque en el exterior del hotel hay zonas de aparcamiento

Pretty good
Pros:

It was close to the beach, shopping etc. The receptionist was very nice and friendly. It was hot and the air conditioning was very effective. We attended AfroNation so it was easy to get an Uber or walk to Praia da Rocha

Cons:

The breakfast eggs etc could have been hot. The first day there was no baked beans but could have been a cultural thing. Also the pool closed early just when it was getting cooler.

Would recommend but maybe book hotellroom instead of villa if your picky like me
Pros:

Stayed in villa room 3.

- amazing breakfast
- amazing food
- amazing staff
- amazing aircondition (not in bathroom tho)
- would stay here again but at the hotell and not the villa

Cons:

- the room had no balcony
- the bidet was broken and leaking
- the closet smelled old and so did the extra covers
- extremely thin doors so you can hear EVERYTHING inside out and outside in.
- the key lock on the door was horrible and very difficult
- there is no phone in the rooms in the villa so you have to walk out to the reception everytime you want to order or ask something.
- the sheets sometimes came with stains but you could still tell it was clean.

Pros:

Da hospitalidade, conforto do quarto, café da manhã

Cons:

O colchão apresentava a mola superficial, dando um desconforto, considerando 7 dias de hospedagem. Fiquei com dor nas costas. Observar se o lado do colchão está correto.
