Vila Franca do Campo Vacations from $1,044

The room was great and everything the description said it would be. I only have it a 3 star rating because the walls are thin and so is the floor. I could hear everything above and below me. There were kids who thought the place belonged to them. They were up at 6am running up and down the stairs two mornings in a row. Nothing like being on vacation and woken up every morning by you neighbors. The only way to complain about the issue was through Whatsapp as there is no one from the hotel present.

This hotel definitely earns 5 stars. The breakfast was very good with a lot of food choices in a cozy restaurant. Hotel on this island is a better option than a Airbnb due to no good restaurants that serve breakfast. All restaurants on the island start serving food at noon. The lobby is very nice with beautiful vases and other nice decorations. Near the staircase was a nice little library where you can borrow books. What I did not like is the AC. Temperature does not go below 19 C. I like to sleep with a temperature of 16C. I had to sleep with the open balcony. It worked only because I lived on a second floor. Hotel does not provide shampoo. Only soap is provided. Some rooms appear to be a way better than others. We had a big group occupying 3 rooms. The outdoor backyard is very large and nice. It has fruit trees with sweet fresh oranges. The hotel has a gym, spa, tennis court, and an outdoor pool which is not heated. There is a tiny pool inside the pineapple greenhouse but it is extremely overcrowded. The Japanese restaurant was ok but could be better. It was too overpriced and sushi were small. I also liked how we would receive little gifts each night like little sweets and even a poem.

The room was clean and accommodating for our family of 5. The hotel was very responsive with questions I had on whatsapp. Our room did smell of water damage but other than that it was a great stay and we absolutely loved the basket full of goodies that was delivered at our door in the morning for breakfast!
