Reviews and Ratings
What a gem of a hotel! The location couldn't be better, with breathtaking views of Barra beach and a stone's throw away from vibrant restaurants. The rooms offer that perfect mix of cleanliness and comfort, plus the staff's warmth is unmatched. However, the dining could use a bit more variety. The well-kept pool area is a real treat, though it's a shame Wi-Fi comes at an extra cost.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, just across from Barra beach, and I loved the easy access to the sand without needing to rent a beach chair. The rooms were cozy and nicely equipped, although some had single beds. The service was top-notch, with a variety of convenient amenities available. The dining experience was enjoyable, especially the delightful sweet rolls provided. Overall, a great value for the money with excellent facilities on-site.
I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. It offers lovely balconies overlooking Barra, which was amazing. The single beds were cozy, but I wish there were more options. The service was top-notch, truly went above and beyond to make my stay special, but it did come at a slightly higher price. The location is fantastic, right in front of the beach with easy access to everything I needed. The dining, although with roasted meats which were delicious, was a bit limited. The facilities were great as well, with all the amenities I could ask for.
