The hotel is nice however, the walls are thin. You can hear other guests and there’s this strange window in the bathroom that is open to, I believe, a mechanical room and the room next door also has a window with the same situation and you could hear each other whether it was conversation or using the bathroom. Also was next to a housekeeping room and heard them anytime they were there.

I would give 5 stars for the locations and views. The hotel is very old and smells mold. My first room was horrible. I wasn't sure if the linens was changed because of the stains we saw. My second room was ok. Overall I do not recommend this hotel if you like comfortable rooms like me.

Worse WiFi ever, they don’t accept Apple Pay.

Great hotel in a great location. However, there are a few weird things that Americans will find very unusual one is they do not accept Apple Pay (when even the street vendors in Brazil do). Second it’s probably the worst Wi-Fi in a hotel I have ever used in Brazil. They probably don’t even try to improve it so if you work remote do not rely on the Wi-Fi. It’s absolutely hideous. The only thing that saved this hotel is the location, the breakfast and the staff Everything else is just not great, needless to say that I wouldn’t return.

Probably Better Options

I don't want to rag on the place, but my guess is that there are much better options. This place is rundown, physically uncomfortable (the bed! The chairs in the room! Even the loungers by the pool!), noisy, and just not nice. Very minimal english was spoken (not their fault; I'm the one visiting, so that's my problem to deal with) which made asking for things very challenging. The room I was put in had construction occuring above and next to it, preventing me from ever "relaxing" in my room during normal business hours. Additionally, the room lacked blankets (just a sheet) and the AC options were "freezing" or "minimal and humid." The buffet offerings for dinner and breakfast were fine, though you can't just "a glass" of wine with dinner. The pool areas were nice as well (if you can tolerate children.) Oh, and points for a swim-up bar. Direct beach access from the hotel was also a plus (even if the surf made the water a little too rough to enjoy.) And the showers were hot and with great water pressure. But overall, the place seems underutilized; beach bars and in-lobby coffee bars that were unattended, difficulty in getting waiters' attention for service at the pool, things like that.

Pior hospedagem até hoje. Tinham cadáveres de insetos dentro do quarto quando entrei. Forte (fortíssimo) mofo. Eu não sou alérgico mas comecei a espirrar e me coçar sem parar. Fico pensando nas pessoas que têm asma… ar condicionado sem ser split (com certeza precisa de revisão e manutenção urgentes). A área da piscina é satisfatória. É único atrativo do hotel, mas a gente não dorme na piscina.

O hotel está bem no final da praia de ponta negra, mas muito próximo a vários restaurantes e da própria feirinha de artesanato. O camarões potiguar fica a poucos metros e também há uma loja de conveniência , 24h, quase em frente. Os funcionários são muito atenciosos e solícitos como a Nicole, recepção, e o Pedro na limpeza. Achei a cerveja cara, uma long neck de Heineken está a R$19,00 ( agosto de 26). O quarto que fiquei era confortável com um excelente banheiro. O hotel possui acesso direto à praia, mas é por uma longa rampa e isso inviabiliza o acesso por pessoas que tenham dificuldades de locomoção ou até aquelas com pouco preparo físico. As piscinas são boas e a sauna também. Ótimo hotel se a ideia for aproveitar os passeios em natal é só voltar ao hotel no final da tarde. Café da manhã muito bom também.

O hotel é muito bom. Na verdade, o único problema que tive foi com a internet. Wi-fi deles não conecta não aparelhos qdo estamos no quarto, assim como os dados móveis não pegam, além da tv, que tbm não conecta de forma efetiva, a internet. Com criança, fica bem complicado. Me dirigi na 1 noite à recepção e o atendente, não totalmente alheio a resolução do problema, dando a impressão de que ele não tinha nada a ver... Ficamos duas noites, sem conexão e foi horrível!

O hotel tem uma ótima localização,um café maravilhoso,uma equipe bem atenciosa e prestativa. Tem a ala nova,una ala que está em reforma. O hotel oferece várias atividades recreativas para as crianças,alguns eventos para os adultos também. Para um hotel de praia, supre todas as necessidades do turista. Para nossa família foi muito muito bom,conseguimos ficar no mesmo andar,detalhe que eram quatro quartos. Voltamos felizes com nosso tempo em família,em Natal e nossa hospedagem no hotel. Gratidão!

Na noite anterior, para agilizar o checkout, procurei a recepção para acertar os gastos extras, entretanto o funcionário estranhamente informou que só poderia fazê-lo se saísse imediatamente do estabelecimento??? Na manhã seguinte, ao soliciar a retirada das taxas facultativas da conta, o mesmo recepcionista dificultou ao máximo que isso acontecesse.

Encontramos várias baratinhas saindo do ralo a noite, durante o dia formigas grandes e vermelhas apareciam nas paredes e pisos. O hotel promete estrutura na praia, mas enquanto os outros hotéis disponibilizam cadeiras e estrutura de cobertura as 8:00 da manhã, vc tem que cobrar os funcionários do hotel para colocação de guarda sol e cadeiras pra uso. Solicitamos serviços de bebida na praia, mas estou esperando o garçom até agora!!! Aí vem o gerente do hotel instruir para não comprar nada na praia que pode fazer mal, para comprar apenas do hotel.
