Hotel Ipanema Beach

The room was very good, nicely fitted out, comfy beds, nice size and fine shower. Restaurant was very good, loved the fruits, salads and veggies! Pool was good, never busy, same as the sunbeds. Probably cos hotel was quietish.

Restaurant meats were disappointing, hardly recognizable, but tasty. Late night noise from the bar area below our room was a nuisance on a couple of nights.

The property was so clean and rooms were very lovely and fresh they were maintained with beds made every day. Plenty of choice for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Lots of drinks included in all inclusive, some great cocktails. Great toasties and pizza slices available around the pool during the day and a choice of two ice creams also included. Pool area was nice and plenty of sun loungers, Outdoor showers and toilets were so clean and spotless. Sun terrace is a nice touch with soft beds and parasols. Balcony was lovely, we had a great pool view.

Very noisy at times, people having loud music playing from their rooms and room walls were quite thin. You can smoke on the balcony’s which is annoying if you are non smokers like us. Sun didn’t shine on the pool area until around 11.30am. Also the jacuzzi part of the pool didn’t work. If you are all inclusive they will only serve your drinks in small plastic cups on the terrace and in the bar area - we did ask for a glass when we sat on the terrace away from the pool but they said only plastic cups are used for all inclusive. You can only have glass in the dinner hall. They allow group parties of men and women so the pool area can get noisy at times. 3 Euros per day to use the safety deposit box in your room and 10 euros deposit for a remote control to you the TV. You only get tiny packet shower essentials , these were not replaced once used during our stay which was disappointing.

They clean the room every day. Nice place, nearly to the beach.
