Feriehjem i Jacumã

"The hotel is nice, but we would have expected more from a 5-star resort. Our room was large, but rather worn. There was a strange smell from the cupboards so we did not put our clothes there. Also the bathroom was average - even the toilet was somewhat loose from the wall. The room safe did not work. No coffee makers in the rooms. If you don’t speak Portuguese be prepared to use google translate - a LOT. Our daughter had been looking forward to using the kids club but this was impossible as no one spoke English. Not a single person working with the kids knew the slightest English. Even some of the receptionists struggled with English so our bookings for dinner for example was mixed up and had to be rescheduled. Hardly anyone in the restaurants / bars spoke any English whatsoever. I find it strange that at a 5-star family resort of this size that English was such an issue. Other than that - pool area was nice and it was good being able to order drinks and snacks by the pool. Although a menu was necessary to point to what we wanted to order. "
