Sicuramente un hotel meraviglioso in copaCabana
Pros:

La ricerca dei materiali e l’architettura.
L’eleganza del piccoli dettagli
La vista meravigliosa sulla baia

Cons:

La colazione potrebbe essere migliorabile e risulta estremamente cara rispetto a quanto viene proposto.
Niente di eccezionale, quando fuori si trovano alternative migliori

Pros:

The maintenance is very poor. The TV has a problem; the hotel technician couldn't fix it. We stayed with one TV for 2 days. The bathroom door cracked; the veranda door was broken and was fixed after a day of staying. The refrigerator was broken and could not be fixed during our entire stay. The polite staff couldn't help us; the hotel manager's apology was unhelpful—bad value for the price. Charging U$1.500 per night is robbery and unjustified. never again !!!
