Azul 36

The hotel had a peaceful feel, and the staff were kind. Breakfast was fresh, simple and delicious, just what we needed. We’d gladly come back to this adorable place.

The location worked well, with everything within walking distance. It isn’t on the lake, but we didn’t miss that, since there are plenty of other ways to enjoy it. Rooms were clean, the pool was fresh and clean, and reception staff were friendly. It was a great place for the price. Breakfast was prepared around 7:30 or 8 and served from 8 to 10, but they didn’t replenish it. By 9 there were only a few bananas left and some eggs mixed with sausages, with no plain eggs. The milk and juices had also been sitting out of the fridge for an hour and a half by then. The breakfast staff weren’t very friendly and mostly seemed focused on their phones.

The daytime male receptionist came across as a bit privileged, like he thought he mattered more than the customers. The women on staff were really nice, though. Breakfast was average: the eggs were cold and rubbery, while the fruit and yogurt were okay.

We had a very nice stay and thought it was good value. The room and bed were big, the bathroom was spacious, and the fan and AC both worked well. There was a minibar in the room fridge with reasonable prices. The pool and sun loungers were nice for relaxing. It’s a five-minute walk to the lagoon front, and about 15-20 minutes on foot from the main road and bus stop.
