This was the second week of our honeymoon. The hotel is perfect for a private getaway. Very cute arrangement of the appartments around a pool and it's directly at the beach. Perfect for just hanging out and doing nothing all day long.||||The rooms were clean, as was the pool and the beach. ||||The bar also offers nice food for lunch. Recomendation: try the charcoal grilled red snapper!||||The kite surf school that is located in the hotel was also fun. although we found the strong wind and waves a bit hard conditions for beginners.||||Now to the downsides. Unfortunately no one at the hotel speaks English besides the owner, but he was not in the mood to talk to us and referred us to the hotel guide, which was available in English, but for example didnt give directions or maps of the village. It told you to talk to the front desk, but they don't understand English. So unless you speak at least a bit of protuguese you might not get the full experience. Also it's a bit far to walk into the village to get some other food than what is offered in the restaurant. the restuarant was nice, however, if staying for a whole week, it might get...

Some weren't impressed by the breakfast but I had no problem with it (3 or 4 x fruit, 5 x cereal, 2 or 3 x fruit juice, several types of bread and pastries, plus hot items) - maybe that isn't impressive by Brazilian standards but it changed every day. We didn't have any other meals there but others did and were impressed, though the restaurant was deserted...
Read moreI have been in Hotel Golfinho the last week of November.||This little hotel (22 rooms), is the ideal place to stay if you want to do kitesurfing or just spend a few days doing nothing but rest.||The hotel has a good swimming pool a restaurant, a bar and a terrace.||The quality of the food is good and the prices are very acessible, the "caipirinha" costs only 1 euro....||For the kite surfers the place is paradise, wind blows all day, between 16 and 22 knots. The beach in front of the hotel has ideal conditions for kiting.||The rooms are ok, with cable television, air conditioned, frigobar and the restrooms are quite new.||But the what i have liked the best has been the friendly service.||I hope i can come back next year.||||Diogo...
