“Unexpectedly Awful Room”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2011
6
people found this review helpful

I can't give a full review since we only stayed about three hours which was enough time for us to check in, eat and then find another hotel. Despite making reservations for two "partial waterview" rooms seven months in adavance, we were given two rooms which offered excellent views and sounds of the dining rooms. The situation was incredibly depressing. The reservation agent insisted we had waterviews; the only water I could see was in the drinking glasses on diner's tables. Since dining stopped at 10 PM and we are early to bed people, I immediately thought of getting an awful night's sleep. Other than staying at a flea bag motel in Burbank, I have never been more disappointed in a hotel. Especially given the high marks others have given to the Best Western. Of course, the place was full so we couldn't be moved until the next night. I spent an hour in their miserable internet closet, searching for alterntative hotels. Since I couldn't translate the Portuguese, it was tough, but we made a list of other places to stay and hired a taxi to take us around. Despite lacking some of the fancier amenities of the Best Western, the Maruparia Hotel offered us good rooms and an excellent atmosphere for our family for three days. In the end, things turned out much better than if we stayed at the Best Western, even if we stayed in quiet, partial waterview, non-dining room view rooms.

“I still going there a lot of times every year! Will be going there forever.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2010

This is a great hotel to stay and to see beautiful things! You can relax and forget about your outter life while you stay in the pool, or of you go down to the beach, or if you sleep on the beds that stay out for the wind. It's a very clean beach, but sometimes it's too crowded. If you get tired of the beach (wich is almost impossible to happen) you can get back to the hotel and watch to music or theater shows that happen inside the hotel. It's a good places for families, for couples in the honeymoon. There are quiet places as much as places with people to play. You can also go to the city near there to do things. Very good, would recommend for everybody!!!

“Nice hotel! Would go back for sure!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2010

Porto de galinhas is amazing and you don't even need to worry about the location because there are loads of jeep (buggee) drivers waiting for you in front of the hotel for trips and tours! The hotel is nice, clean, the staff is a little slow and most of them can't speak English. Pool is nice and it's in front of a beach, not good for swimming in my opinion but it's a good view. Breakfast and Dinner was included in our package, it's okay but you'd definitely have to go to the city center for some nicer meals.
