A Roberta e a dona Maria foram super solicitas, são pessoas maravilhosas e muito simpáticas. Gostamos muito da estadia, o quarto super limpo e confortável e o café da manhã um espetáculo. Adoramos tudo e com certeza voltaremos!

Plage Hotel
Is a nice place and the restaurant food is very good. They have a pretty friendly staff. The only thing I didn't like was the pillows because they are kind of firm. It was a pleasant and peaceful stay and if you get a room with a view it's a very nice view of the water.
