We have just returned from two weeks staying at the Visual Praia. The location was great, overlooking the sea, with only the promenade splitting the hotel from the beach. The staff were very friendly. We had no issues with the hotel what so ever. The rooms were spacious and cleaned every day. The resort of Ponta Negra has plenty to... more
Have just returned from the Visual Praia Hotel. What a great hotel. Three pools, lovely location, great staff, good breakfast. The only disappointing thing is that Thomson are now pulling out of travelling to Brazil from this April. What a shame. We had a great time here. We also did our own trip down to Rio for 3 nights. That... more
This was the 2nd time we stayed in Natal and the 1st time for us at the Visual. Before going i had checked Tripadvisor for the reviews, and was getting very anxious at what i was reading. When we arrived at the hotel it was early evening, but the staff made us feel welcome & the first impressions from the... more
We stopped here for 2 weeks in January this year and enjoyed every minute. I have read some of the reviews given and can honestly say that we did not have any problems. I can see where some reviews are coming from and think that if you are given some of the rooms, then you may have reasons for concern... more
The hotel is in excellent location - bang on the beach with 3 small swimming pools. Breakfast room is open air with sea views. You can eat everything from scrambled eggs, cheesy buns, tapioca (local savoury). There is also a variety of fresh fruits, cakes....and not our favourite the juices - watery and sour. The room we stayed on the... more
We arrived in the Visual Praia by taxi at 1:30 in the morning. No one from Thomson had met us at the airport after our 4 connecting flights. We were then shown to room 207 (as mentioned in other reviews). This was a coffin of a room, the air conditioning was not working and the view was of the car... more
The reason we booked this particular hotel was due to the good reviews it had. However, I do feel that the reviews were a little generous. As we travel quite a lot and tend to be quite fussy we do expect a fairly high standard wherever we stay. Our first impression of the hotel were not too favourable.The dark wood... more
We stopped here for one night of a 2 week holiday. I was so excited about our 10th anniversary.We paid for a sea view room and e-mailed ahead asking for a nice room and flowers to please my wife The term Visual Praia implies views of the beach.However what you get is a ramshackle collection of afterthought buildings most of... more
Don´t waste your time and money don´t go there I went for my honey moon. It was over booked, they traid to send me out of the hotel. After we had a long arguement with the guy of the front desk, they accepted to have us a room (5 hours after we arrive). Room number 407. It was very similar... more
