Good but not awesome

Posted 29 Feb 2024 on Hotels
The pousada is nice but not as you see in the pictures. Our room was at the top and there is a long way up, with low light at night The breakfast was ok, nothing special. It’s one block and a half to the beach, they change the pool towels only every 2 days. The curtains doesn’t cover completely so you get light early. The bed mattress for the small bed had a bump very uncomfortable, and the bed sheets low quality. Front desk people were kind and helpful

The property was good and a good location with a beautiful view of the ocean. Staff was friendly. It’s a VIP hotel but I didn’t receive any of the perks that were offered which was a big disappointment because I booked this hotel specifically for the perks.

I shouldn’t have been disappointed because I knew what I was booking. I should have booked elsewhere. I guess I just hoped it might have been better. This is not a luxury hotel - and I knew that when I booked. But I’d hoped it might have been a special place to stay. One of those smaller places with style and charm. That’s what I’d been hoping for - especially given the price and many of the reviews. But I’m afraid the reality is it’s a slightly run down basic 3 star pousada. It does have nice views from its position on the hill overlooking Praia João Fernandes. It aspires to be stylish and ‘chic’, but sadly they skimped on the quality of materials and fittings - and on space. As a result it all feels slightly cramped and claustrophobic. It is ‘boutique’ in the sense that everything is tiny: tiny pool(s), tiny bed, tiny room (and I did make sure to book one of the bigger ones - the smaller ones must literally be cupboards). And because it was built rather shoddily, it is already beginning to succumb to wear and tear and to look tired. Other issues: the aircon was unbelievably noisy, the bed was small, basic and not comfortable - I did not sleep well here. And when you’re looking forward to a few days’ rest and relaxation it’s things like those (bed, peace and quiet, comfort etc) which are just so important. You don’t need to be a luxury hotel to get those things right. Another annoyance is that the internet didn’t work in the room - though,

The staff was extraordinary! Always asking if we needed anything or if we were content. The actual Pousada was incredible. One of the best I have ever stayed at. Stunning views, great food, only downside is no alcohol but the staff got some delivered to us which was great! We stayed in an ocean view room and it was definately worth every penny!! I will for sure be coming back here I loved every minute of my stay!! Also super super close to the beach.

Paraíso em João Fernandes

Posted 10 Aug 2024 on Hotels
Foi maravilhoso! Consegui um ótimo quarto, com uma vista sensacional! Coisa de filme! Em todos os hotéis, eu facilmente coloco este no meu TOP 3 de melhores lugares para se hospedar. Atendimento sensacional, simpáticos. Pousada com uma estrutura ótima (melhor se tivesse estacionamento). Só tenho elogios. Quarto maravilhoso, com serviço eficiente de limpeza, ótima sensação de segurança, boas comodidades, ambiente incrivelmente agradável. As piscinas aquecidas são sensacionais. Se precisar de um ponto negativo, é a piscina "fria" que parecia não ter muita atenção na limpeza, mas ninguém usava ela. As demais piscinas, impecáveis. Não tenho o que reclamar da estádia, pois parecia um sonho. Recomendo demais! O por do sol é lindo demais para acompanhar!

Infelizmente deixou a desejar muito! passei calor

Posted 6 Aug 2024 on Hotels
A localização é muito boa, piscina com uma vista linda, piscina climatizada! Restaurante abriu 14:30 achei bem ruim o horário! Faltou luz no bairro, o hotel ficou sem energia pois não tinha gerador, passei a noite toda sem luz minha saída era às 11:00 e sem luz, nenhuma satisfação! O café da manhã razoável, não tinha muita opção!

Pontos positivos : vista para a praia de João Fernandes , 2 piscinas aquecidas mas somente uma tava aquecida legal , preço justo e mt perto da praia, ótimo restaurante para jantar em casal, apesar do Check out cedo deixaram usar a dependência da piscina para tirar a areia do corpo. Pontos negativos : não tem estacionamento , mt escada ( não tive problema mas quem for com idosos ou alguma pessoa com deficiência complica ) café da manhã com pouca variedade ( não tinha banana , algo que considero básico ) o Check out é as 11 horas muito cedo pra você curtir o último dia na praia.
