"This is a privately owned unit within the Gold Flats hotel therefore breakfast is not included but very affordable. Room has a kitchenette and balcony."
"I loved my stay at this hotel right in front if the beach, which is very modern, beautifully designed, with a fantastic rooftop and pools, in a very quiet area of Cabo Branco. The rooms are a little bit small, especially if it is not a single person travelling. There are restaurants around and it's excellent that it has a 24 hours convenience store as part of the hotel entrance. I would highly recommend this place including and this area over the properties in Tambaú."
