"Honestly, after reading some of these reviews I was scared to stay here. I can assure you dont listen to them. It was the best experience. The room was great, I got lucky and got a room on the 10th floor for myself and the sea views are spectacular. The staff are great and help where they can. Bar in the lobby and they tend to you and make you feel comfortable if youre drinking there. Breakfast was great one of the best hotel breakfasts ive ever had, probably the best, so many options, never had to eat breakfast outside. The beach was a plus right across the street and they had numerous chair vendors to choose from if you dont want to carry a chair from the hotel to the beach. I would definitely consider staying here again in Barra when I come back to Brazil. Im a barra girlie now!"
