You can read my general overview from last year (Jan 9, 2011) - generally, everything is the same (and that's good). It was good enough for us to go to the same place again... Some differences we noticed: the food was much better over all. Specifically, there were much more healthy food alternatives in the different buffets: lots of veggies... More

If you are planning a family vacation and looking for an all purpose beach resort, this is the place to go! The resort is quite large with 1200 rooms and 8 different categories. There are many fun activities for the whole family, like hiking, surfing, yoga lessons, tennis courts and even a gorgeous golf course! My friend and I decided... More

Me and my family had a great time in Costao. Great rooms (although, bathroom is a little bit old), lots of swiming pools and attractions. Good staff.

The pools were excellent, wide, clean, with a great view to the ocean, and with easy access to the beach. However, service was kind of terrible, because it always took too long to get anything to eat or drink. I... More

One thing that is not good is because the resort is far from the city and the airport. Nevertheless , is a hotel who is searching for peace. By... More

I don’t have any strong complaint about the resort, but the price. If it would be priced at half the price it would probably get a 5 starts ratings. But given the high cost some details were really disappointing. The pros It has several activities: tennis, soccer, sandboard, spa, etc. One of the pools if pretty cool The cons The... More

Resort with excellent food, reasonable visual and poor service. The apartments could be more current, because in some wards, it seems that you are in a two-star inn. I prefer the Club Med in other beaches of Brazil. The air conditioning in my apartment was not working. More

Very nice hotel. This is an extremely large property and you are basically secluded from the outside world. There is everything you need inside the hotel. Even a small clinic if you happen to get sick. Since you are so secluded you don't have much of a choice and have to spend approx 65 real pp for the buffet lunch.... More
