Meliá Maceió

The best beach in Maceió is no doubt Jatiúca. You will find three five star hotels right on it: Matsubara, Jatiúca and Meliá. Of all three, Meliá is the option in the middle in what regards price, but the best by far in quality, that is, if you’d have a comfortable international hotel with easy access to the city, great cooking including breakfast, rather than a tropical, non-urban experience (which Jatiúca may offer for a bit of a higher price).

Myself, I like watching cities and learning how people like to live through their institutions, cinema, theatre, etcetera. So this was the perfect (dreamed of!) choice.
