The refurb at the Copa Palace starts in June, the front desk told me. Renovations will be done to the rooms in the main building and to the lobby. They are supposed to finish in October, I believe. During this time I would not choose the Palace.

Otherwise we had a great stary. Old world, Brazilian, service. The annex suites are vert comfortable, large great comfy bed. Excellent house keeping. Large pool, good pool service. Very good bkfst All around we had great service. Its a vert different place from the Fasano.

Good luck.
