Hotel Laguna Blu

Me and my wife've chosen this resort alike hotel in Aquiraz/Prainha from an internet search, whose focus was location and price. Among all choices, Laguna Blue appeared as the best one. Fair room rate and suitable location. We reached the Hotel after a short trip from Fortaleza Airport, where we rented a car. It's a 30' trip, lacking directions signs along the roads. BR 116 and CE 040 were the roads wh traveled on. Despite of that, it was a relatively easy trip, once we used a GPS on my blackberry. At first sight, the Hotel is goodlooking, charming. Simple, but has a mediterranean architecture and careful design. It is Italian owned. The check in was flawless and fast. And we had help to take our heavy luggage to the upper floor room. Short after we entered the confortable and large room, the smelt of sewage coming from the bathroom broke our brief first good impression of it. We'd to open the windows to make it vanish. Hopefully Ceará is a all-day-long windy place. However, everytime we close the room to go to the beach, the nasty smelt returned. The air conditioning also had to repaired: at start, it didn't cool the place. The maintenance guy had to see into it. Good news was that has there that day and the problem was solved. Little trouble with hot water, but it was also fixed. The bed had a king-size mattress, good pillows. There was no need of blankets, only sheets sheltered us from any kind of chill - only my wife can feel chill of a temperature of 26ºC.... but it was enough for her too. There is no hair dryer in the toilet. only on request. The TV set is ridiculous: 14" old tube television, whose remote control is a small keyboard ond the headboard. Was hard to operate it. We stayed in "suite junior", with a porch and gorgeous view. Dawn was at our sight, over the delta of a small river, and the white sand contrasting the green shaded sea. We had 4 fully sun shined day there. No surprises at that region. Other downside is the services on site. You have to be patient and forget about the rush. They have their own pace, wich is definetively not like ours. Heart attacks should be rare on this place - at least not among the staff of this hotel. They are attentious and simpathetic, tough. The food is fair and the price not too expensive. The beach is vast with white sand, however, due to the no stop wind that comes relentlessly form the ocean, the sea doesn't invite us for a dive, its full of small waves. Paradise for kite surfers. Breakfast is not remarkable, could be better served with more options. Appeared to be like budget business hotels. Swimming pool has good location and size, but not well cleaned. As overall assesment is a good place, away from city buzz, not too far from the beach (400m) and a cost effective place to stay.

The hotel is nice but there are not many things to do... either for kids or adults!

Conheci o hotel e fiquei encantada com o lugar. Quartos amplos, restaurante com diversidade, enfim, tudo maravilhoso. Pretendo voltar mais vezes. Fácil acesso para ida e volta de Fortaleza, perto de tudo.

Um hotel aparentemente simples, mas com serviços e atendimento extremamente condizentes com o que se busca quando se faz uma viagem. Sentimo-nos tranquilos, acolhidos, bem recebidos, com conforto e em um lugar lindo e bem próximo de Fortaleza. Piscina e quartos agradáveis, funcionários atenciosos, experiência que valeu demais a pena!

Perfeita hospedagem com a família, fomos muito bem acolhidos pela equipe do hotel. Estrutura formidável e agradável, piscina espaçosa e com linda vista para lagoa e praia. Estão totalmente preparados e assegurados durante essa pandemia. Com certeza voltaremos.
