Aguas Belas Beach Hotels

"Family of 6, from the U.S., staying 3 nights. The hotel is very dated and needs a makeover. The beds were hard but that seems to be common in Brazil. There seems to be a lack of amenities at hotels in Brazil. No washcloth, no tissues, no stationary. For what this room costs I expected more and in a little better condition. The area is very quiet, but I wouldn't recommend walking anywhere. The positives: The location on the beach is great. Breakfast was very good and so was dinner. Shuttle runs to Beach Park every 15 minutes. The staff were very friendly and tried their best with English. Family suite has connecting rooms with 3 beds in the other room and its own bathroom. That alone is perfect for families. "

"The bad-The page room had no internet, so you cant use cell or tv. Moved to another room with a/c but tv was broken. Pool was not maintained, had algae on walls. The good- property is tropical and on the beach. Food id good"

"Maravilhoso vou voltar novamente eu amei "

"Excelente Hotel, fomos super bem atendidos, hotel limpo e muito bem conservado, possui um bom café da manhã, opções variadas e tudo muito gostoso. Recomendo a todos, voltaria com toda certeza. "

"Great location, great staff! Rooms are simple but well-equipped—perfect for active travelers who plan to spend their days exploring. Fuel up with a quality breakfast featuring fresh fruits, local juices and eggs or traditional tapiocas (roll-ups made with tapioca flour which is gluten free) made to order."

"Amenities"

"Ficamos hospedados por 3 dias no Varandas Beach Hotel e, no geral, nossa estadia foi muito boa. Aqui vão os pontos positivos e negativos da nossa experiência: Pontos positivos: • Atendimento: Os funcionários foram extremamente atenciosos. Um carinho especial para as garçonetes Mariana e Francisca, que nos atenderam com muito profissionalismo, simpatia e um serviço excelente. • Localização: O hotel fica perto de ótimas praias e lagoas, o que facilitou bastante nossos passeios. • Experiência externa: Fiz uma aula de kitesurf em Águas Belas e recomendo muito — vale a experiência! • Estrutura: O hotel é bonito, organizado e bem limpo. Pontos negativos: • Água salgada: Todo o sistema de água do hotel é salgado, inclusive para banho e escovar os dentes. Isso nos pegou de surpresa e acabou sendo um incômodo. • Restaurante: O menu deixou a desejar. Sentimos falta de mais pratos típicos cearenses e menos opções “gourmet”. Também notamos a falta de vinhos em taça disponíveis."

"Hotel is in good condition, clean and well staffed. Food was good and both breakfast and dinner had plenty of options. The beach is amazing and easily accessible, with permanent facilities like chairs, and straw beach huts, with the staff being very friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable and spacious, with AC working well and a nice porch, although it had only two chairs, no table or chaise, and wasn’t really very comfortable to use. The only main problem during our stay was with the fitness center, most equipments were on maintenance, without a basic treadmill (absent, not broken), an issue for a runner like me when the weather is not ideal for outdoor training. If possible, choose a villa instead of the apartment, they are really nice and is the main attraction of the resort. We tried to upgrade our reservation but we were told the hotel was 100% booked, although villas seemed to still be available online for the period we were staying. Also, consider the hotel is about 1h away from the main city, Fortaleza, so it’s perfect for a stay-in-the-resort kind of vacation, but not very convenient if you also enjoy a good city dining or nightlife. Plan accordingly, traffic in Fortaleza is a bit unpredictable."
