Perfection in hotel form
I love everything about Esmeralda… the rooms, the service, the facilities, the restaurant. I've lost count of how many times I've been; I love relaxing there, facing the sea at Ponta Negra. Highly recommended.

Esmeralda team, a perfect 10
The service was excellent from the whole team, starting at reception: Mr. Marcone and Adalberto checked us in quickly on the day we arrived and had our room ready so we could rest. The young man who brought our bags up, the waiter Geziel and the whole team. The room was always spotless and the food excellent. We can only say thank you...
