“JUST PERFECT”
This Hotel is off the beaten path, right on the beach.....If you and your wife want ,,some peace and also a wonderful time...I suggest that you come here..There are taxi's , at the hotel and very reasonable. I found the staff...from the cleaning ladies to hotel management, very friendly ...and try to make everything good. The breakfast buffet is more than you can possibly want...from fresh fruit,,to eggs and meat,,,,cheese and hard rolls... Juice and coffee....It is a perfect way to start your day...The beautiful beach is a very short walk across the quite street..and the sand and sea...is what you think of..when coming to beach vacation....I will...come back to this hotel... ,,,,,,,the beds are twin beds, pushed together...is only discomfort....
“Vila Gale Fortaleza Great Beach Location”
This was a very nice hotel and the staff was very friendly and attentive. The location is one of the best if you just want the beach. If you want to do more of a tourist type of trip in Fortaleza I would suggest another location. This is about 10 minutes from the Beira Mar area which is where most of the tourist attractions are. This is on the nicest beach in Fortaleza Praia do Futuro and they have many activities for children and it is a really good family venue. I found the hotel to be dated overall but it was clean and comfortable. I was told by locals including the staff that the neighborhood is not very safe but as long as you stay within the confines of the hotel and the beach across the street in the daytime you should be fine. When I saw 5 stars I usually think about a 5 star hotel in the states or western Europe. You need to set your expectations here. In comparison to many of the hotels in the area it does rate higher than most I looked at. The beach is beautiful there so if you want the best beach in the immediate Fortaleza area and want to relax this is a great location. The breakfast buffet was ample with something for everyone regardless of where you are coming from. They had traditional foods from every major continent and the food was good. The food at the restaurant on the beach was ok. I did have lunch there a couple of times.
“Satisfactory”
Not bad for the price--by no means an all-inclusive resort. air conditioning did not work, but the breeze off the ocean was wonderful.
“Great time in Fortalez”
Overall the Hotel i excellent. Bar is limitd in good quality spirits and lack in divrsity of beer. There were no Queen or King beds, they are two single beds put together, you will fall in between them for sure!
“Nice getaway”
We stayed here for one night, as a getaway from Fortaleza. The hotel is probably a 3-star in terms of quality and furnishings. Some minor maintenance issues (e.g., lights out in hallways, somewhat thin mattress on the bed (in the "superior" room), though not unusual for Brazil). While I found the price of the buffet dinner (40 Reais) a bit high, it was still good. Breakfast buffet, included in the price, is okay (but, really, no fresh juice, just canned?).The beach, just across the street, is nice, but there is a favela (slum) and you would not want to walk in the area at night or early in the morning (this from locals). The location is a bit isolated from Fortaleza itself, but there are excursions, and the beach, while not pristine, is cleaner than that in front of the hotels in Fortalea itself, and you can arrange excursions. Staff were uniformaly friendly.
