Now to the food, the breakfast and lunch is an all you can eat buffet with a pretty good range.

Good cost benefit for meals inside the resort, breakfast and lunch all you can eat includind beverages.

The food at the Pequi restaurant (buffet style) has always been top-of-the-line, with amazingly fresh fruit juices and a multitude of tastes to choose from, comforting every palate.

:-) 

We really enjoyed our interactions at breakfast and lunch with the dining room staff.

The breakfast was good and was the best part of the gastronomic experience.

Extremely good breakfast and slight better than average lunch are included in the price of the rooms.

Just the noise of the Araras early early was bad.

Most folks head to the Hot Park rides first thing in the morning, so the thermal pools are peaceful and quiet (like they were years ago) for at least a few hours in the morning.

It is too noisy during the evenings because of the shows prepared for teenagers.

We tried to get a quieter room overlooking the fishing lake,

When booking her room, we were informed that there was direct transfers between the hotels and that they ran every 20 min during 24h.

NOTE: Not all rooms have wifi, as per feedback given by the receptionist.

And the rooms with three beds could have a lounge area, instead of a third bed, since many people travel only in two people.

Rooms are still bad, no dressers , closets.

Our second room was much better smelling.

but instead ended up overlooked the front drive, which was a bit noisy when transfer buses were there early in the morning.

To go to Turismo, or even Crystal, you have to either walk from a transfer stop or take another internal one.

but the TV had analogic signal and the wifi was very slow (a 3 MB video would download in 5 minutes - no joking).

The food is delicious and the staffs are respectful and willing to help.

You get all kinds of smells and noises when walking to and from your room
2) impossible to eat breakfast and lunch in the buffet without getting stressed.

Kitchen is well equipped to bring a consistently good breakfast and lunch served with many options.

The service was good, the food was very delicious and the environment is friendly.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner (including "drinks") was included in our package.

At least the dinner brunch at Pousada was edible 1 out of 3 nights;

The wi-fi access is sub standard -- it only works in the common areas and not well.

The RQ resort is located in a farm land many miles away from main city and besides its large dimension and solid infrastructure the endemic poor quality internet infrastructure is a surprise.

butcher the natural qualities of the hot springs, adding obviously manmade waterfalls and caves, and other bastardizations such as really bad techno music playing at night.

but even there the signal is unstable and the speed is unacceptable.

Sauna

The space is large and they have hot and cold water pools, being nice for hot or cold days, in addition to having a large sauna, games room, indoor pool, movie theater, beach/pool shop, bar, and a restaurant with breakfast and simple and delicious meals.

Pros:
- Great size, clean and modern apartments
- great breakfast and afternoon snack options
- good frontdesk service
- great pools and play ares
- awesome location (close to HotPark)

Cons:
- very limited tv channel options
- no internet in the rooms
- A new restaurant opened next door, which has life music at night.. until 1 am -> makes it dificult to sleep.

They didn't have hamburgers
The billiard tables, ping pong tables, and air hockey table were all in disrepair to the point of being unusable
The well located soccer field needs to be watered and seeded property
The wi-fi was intermittent, and didn't work in the rooms (unfortunately a typically Brazilian feature)

So all in all, I'm giving this three stars,

First room they gave us had some issues: no AC remote control, bedroom TV set has no sound, safe was not working, one of the two showers neighter.

So I you came thinking you'd make meals in your room, better bring your own.

The apartment was not clean very well, there wasn't condicionated air in the tv room, so it turns the room hard to sleep!

I could not get the internet to work on my laptop in my room however

Sofabed is covered in vinil, is small and hard as a rock.

The bedroom itself has no lamps, so it's full on light, or lights out, in the evenings.

No dishes are provided unless you pay extra, no pans or pots in the kitchen.

Food is buffet style, decent for breakfast, average for lunch and dinner.

Franciane, Patrik and Cairo provided 5-star service every breakfast and lunch.

They provided a roll away bed for 2 of us in our room and it was very comfortable.

Best recommendation to recapture that old feeling -- eat breakfast early (7 AM) and head straight to the thermal pools.

but mild temperatures before or after winter.

but signal is spotty and tend to disconnect.

During my stay I identified 3 things that still need to be improved: 1) the check-in was too slow; 2)wi-fi in our room was horrible (I did not care too much because I mostly left my cell phone in the safe box to force myself out of work. Lol.

Told us we may not be able to check in because we arrived late, it was only 4 pm when we got to the hotel.

The breakfast was outstanding, fresh, and hot.

We were not bothered by this as breakfast area there was really pleasant and the food was excellent.

Food: you can chose lunch or dinner, nice salad buffet,

Total ripp off and no help  with bad horrible room as noise level and horrible bathroom made it unbearable and it was close to empty and now i know why.

Also
either the staff or others guests made a lot of noise in the morning, plus the ele-vators did not work properly either.

Breakfast was divine and the service was excellent.

Mosquitoes were a problem the first night as no screens on windows and AC to noise to sleep with.

Additionally, the apartments are very spacious and they offer awesome breakfast and dinner that can be included on your reservation.

The rate included breakfast and dinner through booking.com.

but annoyingly played loud music throughout the day and evening.

There is wet bar in the swimming pool and all swimming pools looks like hot.

The bathroom had barely anything in ways of Shampoo and Soap, and ours tended to flood when showering.

There is a buffet dinner at another restaurant too,

We were only there for three days, so we lost one day at the Hot Park because of its scheduled maintenance.

but very weak internal lighting, Few and not well trained employees.

Suite & Flat III was kind of a disappointment.

but they are always crowded and the staff is unable to provide you with accurate information on the natural attractions or even simple instructions on how to get towels.

Wonderful hotel, very close to the tourist attractions as well aconchegante.Tudo was good breakfast with abundant variety, the pools were cleaned every day, the rooms and bathrooms were also cleaned daily, towels changed, monitors animating super gay people.

Breakfast is very limited and with a questionable quality.

My only concern where the rooms, they are a bit old and the television is dated.

but it got very clear very  early in the morning- there was a window with no curtain.

There is a very good gym to work out and a wonderful restaurant with very good and healthy food.

I really hate this kind of hotels where they make the 'united' error of adding additional tax to you bill.
