Popular Barra dos Coqueiros 4-star Hotels

First and foremost the people and the service were both great. Our room was sea-facing. Though our first room had a faulty air-conditioner, they fixed it once but it broke again and then we got another room. The people were extremely apologetic for the trouble, and we could not stay upset! The location is good, it takes about 40 minutes by Uber to reach the resort. Amenities are good, and you can get towels/sabonettes/shampoos- as much as you like. Food was good- breakfast not extremely good- but they make it up with the excellent deserts especially the Torta de Kitkat and Torta de Chocolate. The pool bar, beach bar both have a long opening hour and you can drink as much as you like. We do not drink alcohol, so we had agua de coco and juices. Oh! the chef makes great risotto. It is a children paradise. Every morning and evening they have programs for the children. Beach walk, pool dance, treasure hunts, disco, games, magic nights- it is a fun time for kids! There is a baby room where you can warm up baby food or clean the bottles. Live music every night- so fun for adults as well. Oh, they also have zumba and rhythmic dance classes for adults in the evening. The spa and massage is really good. Oh, and we loved the barrista at the lobby coffee corner. There are lots of Mikos (small monkeys). There are supposed to be Saruyes (opossums)- but we did not see any. There are some stray dogs and cats- which are apparently harmless. They have a tour group which provides city tour every morning. Over all experience is good, apart from the occasional hiccups. We definitely recommend with full 5 stars.
