Very good
✓ Rooms were comfortable and staff friendly
✗ Too far from old town
A typical, whitewashed building, Vila Channa is a 10-minute walk from award-winning São Rafael Beach. The air-conditioned rooms overlook the countryside or outdoor pool with spacious sun terrace and loungers. The unit has an outdoor pool.
✓ Rooms were comfortable and staff friendly
✗ Too far from old town
✓ Everything was pretty perfect. The host Tania met us when we arrived and was super friendly and helpful, offering advice that helped us get our bearings. The room was clean and a good size with a cute terrace for sitting with a book in the evenings. We ran out of time so couldn’t spend too much time by the pool but it was very nice for a dip at the end of the day
✗ I suppose the food at the hotel could have been more varied, but there were plenty of places close by so that wasn’t a massive deal
✓ The owners and staff were all very friendly, accommodating and wanted you to have the best holiday! We only stayed for 2 nights and Omar helped us with organising bikes for a few hours which really was a highlight! The location is perfect, next door is a lovely restaurant with delicious food and the beautiful Sao Rafael beach is a 10 minute stroll away. Our room had 2 balconies, and it was spotlessly clean. We hope to be back soon!
✗ Nothing
✓ Vila Channa is the place to go if you want a truly relaxing stay. The pool and breakfast area is gorgeous, the rooms are clean and comfortable, the breakfast is great and the hosts are so attentive and welcoming. The bar serves a range of snacks and drinks throughout the day so you can spend all day at the property if you want to. Equally, if you want to go and explore, there are two beaches 10 mins walk away and some lovely restaurants too. staff arrange any reservations or taxis for you making the whole holiday seamless and easy
