Amazing Hotel facing the beach in João Pessoa. This was my first time in this hotel with my Fiancé and we loved it. The restaurant has a nice decoration as the hotel with lots of plants and trees. Food is very good. The gym and pool are also great. Breakfast is amazing. The staff is very polite, friendly, always available to help. I highly recommend this hotel.

Staff were nice. Marcelo from IOCÁ restaurant went above and beyond. The property was clean. Housekeeping was wonderful. Beautiful hotel with lots of plants and wood. Good food in both restaurants. Parking on the back of the hotel needs improvement (half of the parking lot is unpaved), the music at ORAMA restaurant at dinner time was loud. Overall, I was pleased and would stay again at this hotel.

Qualidade do hotel

Ao me hospedar queriam uma caução de 2.000 por danos ao hotel, nunca vi isso na minha vida, pessoal da recepção totalmente despreparado pra explicar sobre essa caução, já me hospedo neste hotel desde 3 meses de inauguração, e cada dia que passa a qualidade está ficando pra trás
