I would highly recommend staying at Rifoles when in Natal. The hotel is situated directly on a beautiful soft sand beach, with beach chairs and umbrellas on the sand. The currents in the ocean are a bit strong so be careful and don't go out too far. The staff couldn't be better. Remember, you're in Brazil and most workers don't... More

Rifoles hotel is wonderful located by the Ponta Negra beach and the view from the pool is stunning. The hotel is a bit old and the hall as well as the bedrooms are painted in dark colors and have dark wood so it gets a little heavy. It is not what you expect in a beach hotel but after the... More

The hotel stays on a great spot, right on the edge of Ponta Negra beach, the best beach for tourism on Natal. It's also close to Praia Shopping, Northeast Arts Shopping, Camarões International and Tábua de Carne, the last two are probably amongst the best restaurants in town. This is the good trait of the hotel: location. From now on,... More

We have spent 7 nights there, with our two children (14 and 15). Nice staff (mainly at reception desk), ready to help you; excellent location, design(respecting the environment) and a very good breakfast (open space with an amazing ocean wiew). To be improved the quality of food (nothing special, from the appetizers to the cakes), the uniforms of the staff... More

This hotel was booked by my representative in Brazil, so I had no idea what to expect upon arrival. I arrived at 3am, and greeted by very helpful and pleasant reception staff. The breakfast buffet was very extensive, with a good choice of cooked food and fresh fruits. The room was good, feeling a little old, but nothing major to... More

We stayed in a terrible dark room hidden which seemed to be the back of the hotel facing a garden with dead flowers!!! The water front rooms seemed better however the decoration and cleanness as well as the whole hotel atmosphere were terrible.

We have been to Rifoles for 3 nights with our 6-month baby. In general, the hotel is adequate for this kind of traveler, with a good support regarding baby meals, a little kitchen in the pool area and preparation of the room with a crib and a tub. The location is the best, right between Ponta Negra and Via Costeira,... More

Nice, good food, but if they are full there's a risk to have some troubles (not big, but...) in their room (infrastructure, like no hot water for 60 or more minutes). Don't stay in one of the rooms located at the left side of the hotel. It is better to whom is making tourist travel, even with kids, they love... More
