Um paraíso a pouca distância do Rio de Janeiro

Cons:

De ir embora

Relax al mare in mezzo alla natura rigogliosa dell’isola
Pros:

Il posto è bellissimo e paradisiaco, perfetto per chi vuole rilassarsi qualche giorno. L’atmosfera è molto rilassante, le stanze affacciano direttamente sul mare e anche il ristorante ha una posizione fantastica.
La ragazza che faceva i massaggi e lezione di yoga era molto preparata e gentile.

Cons:

Ristorante è molto buono, unica pecca ha dei tempi di attesa molto molto lunghi. È l’unico posto dove puoi mangiare dato che l’hotel è isolato, ma hanno un menu molto ampio che ti permette di mangiare sempre cose diverse. Ci sarebbe piaciuto solo che l’attesa fosse più breve

heel rustig en ideaal na een rondreis
Pros:

lekker eten en restaurant was goed. personeel heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. ligging aan mooi en rustig strandje. Je moet wel boot (transfers per boot zijn niet goedkoop) nemen om iets te bezichtigen. Je kan wel wandelen vanaf het hotel naar ander strandje. Paadjes door mooie natuur langs kust.

Retraite tranquille dans un paysage incroyable.
Pros:

Les paysages,la plage privée, les couchers et levers de soleil,la proximité du lagon bleu en font une destination d’une rare beauté. Les hamacs sur les balcons et l’ameublement extérieur de bois très joli.

Cons:

Ne pas avoir accès à du café avant l’ouverture du restaurant à 8h le matin, pas de miroir long dans les chambres, très petit espace salle de bain et surtout le fait qu’il faut payer très cher pour les déplacements en bateau taxi ailleurs sur l’île si non, on doit prendre tous ses repas au seul restaurant de l’hôtel.

A piece of paradise, I would recommend to anyone.
Pros:

It was a little slice of heaven. Waking up to the view every day was like nowhere else. We stayed in the Bungalow and it was just perfect. It was ultimate relaxation. I didn’t want to leave and would go back there in a heartbeat.

Cons:

Having to leave.
