The hotel itself is nice and the staff responsive. The morning breakfast crew did a good job with the food. You can plan on not taking a shower around 6:30 A.M. due to an apparent lack of water. On the weekend, you will need some ear protection until around midnight when the local bands stop playing. You might check around to see how the competition is rated in the area before you book here.

Beach Hotel

I visit Brazil once a year. And i pretty know Joao Pessoa and all locations pretty well. But if there is a hotel where i always stay . This is the ONE . Amenities are pretty good and is located next to the Best beach . Its is not Tambau neither Cabo Branco. Its called INTERMARES beach. Full of coconut trees where you can find half gallon of cold coconut water for only 2,5 dollars . Its a 2,5 walking miles from Ponta de Campina beach and 3 miles away you can get a boat to a sand island called Areia Vermelha. The hotel is located across the beach .Beautiful sunrises . The breakfast is extremely good . You can have tapioca sandwiches made by order. The staff is extremely cordial and helpful. The only downside is the pool. Closed just after 8:00 pm and need to be a little more taken care off there is no filters working during the day turning the water funny. Overall will be back for sure.

It could have being an excellent stay except for some of the noises, like the neighbour's rooster, and the bar next door. The rooster would start his singing early in the morning. My last night stay, the bar next door was having a party and the music was very very loud until 330am or so and when I thought the bang bang of the music had stopped the rooster started his show. Great breakfast, nice customer service, very good facilities, but the outside noise wasn't very pleasant.

Ótima.

Na média foi boa, a localização é muito boa e no hotel tem um restaurante muito bom, que geralmente está vazio, mas tem atendimento de qualidade e pratos com ótima comida. Esse é o ponto de mais destaque pra mim.

Experiência positiva, porém com pontos a melhorar

O hotel em si não é ruim, mas percebemos que precisa de alguns investimentos. Os banheiros, por exemplo, estão em condições um pouco precárias e merecem reforma. O café da manhã também poderia oferecer mais variedade de opções. No geral, não tivemos uma experiência negativa, mas sentimos que, com melhorias e modernizações, o hotel poderia se tornar excelente.

Experiência boa, ao lado do hotel eles tem um restaurante com preços bem acessíveis, espaçoso e as vezes à noite tem música ao vivo. O único ponto a reclamar, no meu caso foi o piso do quarto sujo com areia de praia e a banheira extremamente pequena. Mas o café da manhã tem muita variedades, o atendimento é bom e é um ambiente bem elegante e o quarto bem aconchegante.

O hotel é de frente à praia, o atendimento dos recepcionistas é ótimo, o cafe da manhã também corresponde, mas, as áreas comuns e o quarto pedem uma manutenção. Achei um absurdo o banheiro da área da piscina, único que atende a recepção não ter papel higiênico, estar sem toalha e com a descarga quebrada. No quarto, as paredes eram sujas e a cama era de MOLA algo que nem sabia que ainda existia, me deixou com dores no segundo dia. A economia não compensou
