Culinary Delight

“The dining experience at Fazenda Gamela Eco Resort was nothing short of amazing. From breakfast to dinner, there was a vast array of food options that catered to everyone's tastes. I particularly enjoyed the paella, risotto, feijoada, and churrasco. The buffet for kids was also a thoughtful touch, ensuring that even the little ones had their favorites. The all-inclusive offer made every meal feel festive, especially during the special events like the 'festa junina' with its traditional foods.” view full review

Fun for Kids

“The recreational team at the resort deserves special mention! They organized activities specifically tailored for different age groups, which kept my children engaged and entertained throughout our stay. From the youngest to the older kids, there were options like volleyball and family rafting. My great nephews, aged 2 and 4, had a blast from morning until night, and they absolutely loved it!” view full review

The nature surrounding the resort made every physical activity feel refreshing.

Comfortable Accommodations

“The accommodations were very comfortable and perfect for our family getaway. Our chalet was simple yet clean, featuring comfy mattresses and efficient air conditioning. It also came equipped with a small fridge and two TVs, though honestly, we barely had time to use them!
