Day Use LUP and Transfer to Carneiros Beach

Until the last moment, we did not know the time they were going to come pick us up at the hotel. The round-trip ground transfer was correct and was available after we contacted them. They rushed us to board unnecessarily because, in the end, the boat trip was just for us. There was no guide to explain anything to us, neither in Spanish nor in Portuguese. The man who took us was kind but only transported us. We made three stops; the only one that was worth it was the one at Carneiros Beach, where we would have stayed longer if we had avoided the two previous stops, where we saw nothing but dark and dirty water and they only wanted to sell us fish food and waterproof cases for our cell phones. The LUP beach is very beautiful, but it bothered us a lot that they did not let us use all the facilities of the Beach Club pool. The photo shows an exclusivity that they do not provide you. Personally, we wanted to rest on those beds that you see, having a caipi in the pool and protecting ourselves from the sun, and they only let us use some pseudo-perforated umbrellas, which were more decorative than anything else. On top of that, the place was empty! They also tell you that you cannot bring water or anything to eat, so that you consume everything there. Ask before you pay. Later, talking with another guide from the place, he mentioned to us that the best time to go is September and that you can appreciate the color of the water from the photo. We went and it did not dazzle us. It was an experience and we always try to rescue the good, but we would not repeat it nor do we recommend it.
