Top Farol da Barra Beach Hotel Reviews

Ocean Barra

Ocean Barra

8/10 Good
"The property is in a great area. I traveled with a group of friends and all of us were able to get an individual unit in the building. The rooftop is so relaxing and peaceful! Security controlled 24 x 7. Only a few minutes walk to the beach front. Many restaurants and stores within a few minutes of walking. My only critique is that the water does not get hot. Its luke warm at best but other than that, the stay was great, especially for the price"

"Pas de paiement en ligne ou par crédit. Argent comptant seulement ou Pix. Le personnel a l’accueil est unilingue portugais, ce qui complexifie les communications importantes. La nourriture est bonne, la chambre était propre et l’emplacement excellent. Près de la plage, du centre commercial et des banques."

"The rooms could certainly be cleaner. The staff at the restaurant and some of the staff at the front desk were nice but we did encounter a few people that did not demonstrate much interest in their guests. The facility is a bit old and needs some updates. The location is great and breakfast was amazing. Overall, not sure I would stay there again for the price. It didn’t quite feel worth the amount we paid for it."
