I will say the location of this property was perfect for what we were wanting to do. But I'll get right into why I would say not to stay at this property. The cleanliness rating that it has is far from correct if I could give this a negative star on the cleanliness I would. We found dead bugs on the floor, cobwebs throughout the house, and trash underneath the desk in the living room. The photos are completely outdated. The couch that is in the pictures is in pieces part of it is in the living room part of it is on the back patio by the stairs going to the washing machine. It seems to be that the cleaning lady was doing her laundry and all of it was hanging on the back patio that we had to take down so that we could use the line to do our own laundry. All the sheets and towels had an old mildew smell to them maybe as if they had been left in the washing machine for too long before hanging out to dry. The master bathroom had aunts and spiders crawling all over the floor and the toilet when you turn the light on. The rooftop private pool was in desperate need of a deep clean. The refrigerator in the kitchen was disgusting looks like it had not been wiped down in quite some time. But the most disappointing thing of all is we scheduled the property for four nights and it was confirmed and then it was shortened to three nights without any explanation and true notice. There was a conference going on in town while we were there, so it made it extremely hard for us to find accommodations for the family for one night. This created anxiety for the family trying to find a room for our last night in town unexpectedly when had already booked this property.

We had a great time staying at this place. It has plenty of space. The apartment is kind of stuffy and hot during the day. The ceiling Dans were not working well when we first got there and the manager (Fia) got them fixed right away. The bedrooms have air conditioning. There is a private pool upstairs. Fia who is the property manager also cleans the place and will cook and do laundry. She is extremely helpful and a very sweet person. Would stay there again!

We had a wonderful time at this apartment. We couldn't go out too much due to covid, so having a pool for the kids was a must. The location is great. I'm originally from Recife and I really liked the location because it is walking distance to several restaurants, grocery store, a Pracinha de Boa Viagem (the "Plaza" where you will find lots of booth with cultural merchandise for sale and delicious street food) and the Mercado (another great location for local shopping). Dona Fia is a real person and a lovely lady, may I add. Hard worker, polite and respectful to say the least. She helped make our stay a better one. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in Recife.

We lived at this Apartment better, described as a penthouse, for two months. It was a superb experience. Senhora Fia looked after the apartment maintaining it in perfect condition and was always at our disposal. The beach is 2 minutes walk in the best area of Boa Viagem. There are restaurants, supermarkets, bakeries etc nearby. The host was super friendly and attentive and made our lives easy. We had a few barbecues by the pool with our local family and with the magnificent views of the ocean the experience was absolutely SUPERB! We would highly recommend it.

We stay at Ludovic's apartment for 12 wonderful days. The apt. Is perfect! Big, breezy and it has everything we needed at it. Great location, near everything we needed. And we had Ms. Fia to take care of everything and anything we needed. She's a wonderful and lovely lady. Always taking care of us and keeping the place clean and neat. We'll always love her. Ludovic made our stay easy and nice. We recommend this apartment to everyone. For sure we'll come back there many time. Thank you very much for all Ludovic and Ms. Fia did for us!
