You will not be sorry if you stay at this beautiful modern condo across from Praia Mole beach. We found it online and were hoping the pictures matched the property. We were not dissappointed. #30 is pristine and beautifully decorated. Spotless and orderly with a very open, serene ambiance. I did not want to leave. Bill was a wonderful host, even meeting us at the airport so we wouldn't get lost, which we would have. The beds were very comfortable. We slept five (2 adult girls in the queen, 1 adult boy in the double and two adults in the master king) there is a loft above the master suite that could actually sleep a couple more; on futons;(older children/adults only; no safety rails; as it's original intention is a yoga/meditation room).
All appliances worked great. We drank water from a countertop filter system in the kitchen and also straight from the tap; with no ill effects. The pool is so beautiful and the timed waterfall a luxurious touch. We loved the outdoor kicthen and dining area and ate most of our meals out there. The adjacent lagoon trail was a fun short hike and we swam in the cool waters off the dock and climbed on the big boulders. Great photo ops there! We had a bit of rain while in Floripa (we were there March 14-18) but it was warm and nice. In our rented car, we traveled to other beaches fairly easily. We were ready to cook for ourselves on this last leg of a long 16 day trip so we used the little local market to purchase our food. We did eat at Rosas Resturant and it was basic and good. I am vegetarian so my options are usually limited but I had their french fries and they were good.One activity we loved was "sand dune boarding"...yep that's right... it was a blast; even "in the pouring rain". |
