8.8/10 Excellent! (186 reviews)

Tudo estava maravilho, amamos os apartamentos no alto com uma vista para as duas praias e também amamos ficar a família juntos em apartamentos lado a lado. Os funcionários super atenciosos, mais com uma atenção super especial do restaurante Arbo Gastrobar. A Juliana e o outro rapaz argentinos foram super nota 10, aliás 1000. Minha irmã estava comemorando o aniversário dela e fizeram a celebração ainda mais especial mandando um bolinho na mesa, o músico de sábado a noite cantou parabéns, foi super show!! Com certeza voltaremos em breve!! :) muito obrigado por tudo!! Vanessa
