The hotel room was a perfect size with beautiful views off the terrace of the ocean and mountains. The breakfast was fresh and very good. Not your typical continental breakfast of cereal and bread. The breakfast had fresh fruit, a variety of Brasilian breads, eggs, quiche, cheese meat. . .Very good!

No iron and no washclothes! Had to send out to get my clothes ironed, b/c no irons are allowed in the room and it was around 5,00R.for a pair of pants and when the clothes returned they still had wrinkles. I also had to use a hand towel in place of a washcloth.

Overall, I give the hotel a thumbs up! I loved the location, accross from the beach and views of the beach/ocean and mountains from the terrace of the room were absolutely beautiful. The breakfast was great with a variety of fruits, cheese, meats, breads. . .etc. One negative is that you cannot even bring a cup of coffee up to the room from breakfast. There is someone who is 'standing guard' so NOTHING is removed. I was also disappointed in not having an iron in the room. After I sent out my clothes to pay to get ironed, they came back with a bill and wrinkles still on the clothes. I recommend bringing your own starch and a mini iron if you want your clothes wrinkle free. The hotel was very safe and clean. This is my first visit to Brasil and I felt very safe, even on the beach. Most of the people around the area are locals that live there and are not there to hustle you.

Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : If you want to hang glide, plan in advance/days in advance b/c the wind can change. I was disappointed as we could not hang glide due to low wind on a beutiful sunny day.

Beautiful view. Able to experience Brazillian operated establishment. Simply appointed rooms but functional. Immaculate. Good dining room. Good customer service. Always someone in reception and dining area who could speak English.

Staying at the Royalty Barra was a good choice. For the price of the rooms, the view, accommodations, cleanliness, availability of a nice dining room, we were very satisfied. The staff in the reception, dining, support services, and housekeeping areas were accommodating and made every effort to fulfill our requests. There was always someone on site that was available to speak English if the need arose.
