We stayed in block 1 (of 3) and had great views over the pool area and sea. The lobby bar is good but can get quite busy so I preferred the Cigar bar ( i dont smoke) and... more

It was our first time to Brazil & first stay in an Iberostar. Firstly if your thinking of going there, just go because there is not much I can find at fault with this magnificant, beautiful designed hotel. A work of art really. Everthing is so grand & colourful. You get there on the first night check in & the... more

Our room was ample, clean and well kept. We were lucky to be on the 1st floor and had a great view of the ocean. The mini-bar... more

Stayed 10 days at the end of july, with a 5-yr-old kid and a baby. Unlike a french person who wrote a review (in French) some months ago, we were very happy that the clients were mostly Brasilians and that the hotel is oriented to south american customers. The hotel staff is courteous, efficient and nice, from the waitresses to... more

This hotel is absolutely amazing. The other reviews which rate it 5* are spot on. You couldn't ask for anything more from a holiday. Stayed in the Iberostar Varadero in Cuba last year and thought that the hotel in Brazil couldn't possibly be better...but it was! If you travel with First Choice the Jeep Safari is fantastic (providing that you're... more
