Vale Suíço Resort

Definitely great place for the family trip. The best is the team of “Monitors” Tio Pipoca, Mosquito and many others who were taking care of the kids activities and leisure time! Food is also amazing! Variations of dishes was stunning. Many different available activities during the day. One warning for families! I suggest to ask if there is any other event organized during your stay! Otherwise you might encounter unpleasant surprise of a group of drinking people in the pool, in the night, around the resting area which might disturb your wonderful weekend with kids. This happened to us and we were forced to move out from swimming area as I was worried that the bottle of beer will be smashed in the pool. I can recommend this resort but with caution and thorough check of the weekend/ week activities planned (other than regular family visits).

I could write about the amazing pool complex that the kids loved. I could also talk about the delicious food or the outstanding lofts that I stayed at. But others Resorts can build up some like that. So I decided write my review thanking people that made my family trip went beyond our expectations. And it started when Sr. Paulo and Sr. Rogerio open that gate for us. Then Herith was so kindly with our luggage. The receptionist team Micaela, Sabrina, Luciana, Lari(Larissa), Mr. Marcos, Eduarda and an especial thanks to Tamara. She was so helpful when my wife needed to work at her home office needs. I will miss a lot Mr. Evaldo, now I know he is a gardener, but we met him taking care of the bikes, the pedalinhos and SUP paddles. He was so nice with me and my kids. Thank you a lot Mr. Evaldo. What about that lady Rafaela, every morning she delivered my gengibre at my breakfast! Mr. Paulo, so nice, smiling from lunch to dinner. Emerson and our fresh juice. Jassi and the Italian palha recipe! Mr. Diogo, Mr. Gilmar and the Maître Mr. Peterson. Thank you all! Kaylane and Kayane. Tio Amendoim and his security concerns when we were riding the bikes. That was a sharp eye. I wish I could remember the name of all those guys at the The Voice night. Tia Lillo, Maguila, Mosquito and all the recreation staff. The Dona Irene smile, I won't forget. All that was possible because there was Mr. Felipe the super manager. We loved to stay 4 nights and 5 days at Vale Suíço Resort, and we will be back soon! Even I don't know their names there was a lot o people working hard for our pleasure. Unforgettable!

I am kindly writing this review for Vale Suíço Resort (Itapeva - Minas Gerais) in gratitude for the attentive staff that made our family vacation truly enjoyable. My parents (a.k.a: grandma & grandpa), my husband, my toddler and I spent quality time together at the resort nestled in the hills, surrounded by nature and a gentle breeze. We checked-in early August (Brazilian winter), but it felt like just a perfect summer (temps. from low to mid 70s F). Everyday, we were tweeted “good morning” by wild green parakeets that roosted at the top of the palm tree by the infinity pool. There’s a swimming pool for everyone during the day and at night too (indoor cave pools with waterfalls are heated). Breakfast will never be the same without toasty and gooey “pão de queijo”, eggs cooked to order and even a freshly squeezed detox ginger-lime-pineapple juice. There was quite a spread at lunch and dinner, including “churrasco”(roasted meat on giant skewers) and customized pasta station; desserts galore. Having a “picky eater” dedicated menu selection at the restaurant definitely helped us (parents) feel more at ease during meal times. There was no need to worry about gaining weight for we were biking, swimming, pedaling boats, swinging hammocks, visiting the petting zoo, and playing with our little one at the two level indoor playground. If you must work out, there’s a nicely equipped gym too with sunrise/sunset views. There’s a team of “monitores” (children activity coordinators) that run a daily schedule of activities with the guests’ kids. The monitores are very engaging and plan activities encompassing different age groups. By the end of the first day, my toddler, the other guests’ kids and the monitores became close friends and hang out together as if they had known each other for a long time. They often sat together at meal time at their own “members only” table. Another resort feature that surprised me was the “cantinho da mamãe” (the mother’s corner); they consisted of kitchenettes with microwave, mini fridge, sink and stovetop stocked with fruits, cereal, milk and, filtered water and even a highchair (dedicated spots for mom’s to prepare their little kids meals and wash bottles etc…) Overall the property is well cared for, the staff is friendly and helpful (lifeguard included), there are lots of activities, lounge areas to relax or read and amenities (spa services, pool towels and toiletries too), and it’s safe (gated property with security guard and 24 hour reception). There was no time to be scrolling down on our cell phones screen; we only used our cell phones to record the smiles, fun and joy we were experiencing. I definitely recommend staying at Vale Suíço Resort and wish your family have the same precious moments we had. Special thanks to Marcos N. who made us feel more than just guests with a room #. Marco had to remind me about “jogo da velha” too; (it’s been a long time since I played that game). Obrigada

The best food and entertainment for kids. The booking experience was super easy too. Camilla Carvalho was very helpful over WhatsApp. We had a great time and our kids loved it, the crew that were looking after the kids was very nice too. Will come back for sure.

Tudo bem organizado, limpo e feito para todas as idades de divertirem!! Fora os cuidadores dos adolescentes específicamente o tio relâmpago ( marcos )
