We were looking for a hotel that would be a) boutique type, b) right on the beach, c) good feedback from Tripadvisor, d) not exessively expensive. We made the right choice with Pousada Porto da Lua. We spent 5 days in this hotel and felt very happy there. The room that we had was on the 2nd floor with a... More

We asked for a hotel where we could switch-off and relax for a couple of days after a busy time travelling round Brazil. Imagine Latin America recommended this very simple pousada. It is right on the beach and quite close to the busy little village but it is very quiet and unpretentious. No swimming pool and no air conditioning (not... More

We stayed for a few days at the end of our month tour of Argentina & Brasil. We had the "Full Moon" suite on the top floor - with a large balcony facing the sea, and a separate side balcony. The room was large (seemed about 50% bigger than an ordinary room) and had the advantage of aircon (I think... More

This hotel is in a wonderful location with all rooms having a view of the ocean and the beach. The room was a little bit tired but very clean and tidy. The walk in shower had great pressure but tended to flood the bathroom - we kept a towel on the floor to soak up the excess water. Afternoon tea... More

Excellent Inn/Hotel just in front of the beach. The staff is very friendly. Excellent breakfast with lot of options, including juices, omelets, cakes, breads, etc… The afternoon tea is just the breakfast leftovers but it is still a great meal… They could just include juices. The room is in good conditions with a silent air-conditioner and brand new TV (although... More

The Pousada is in a fantastic location and it is difficult to fault the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the rooms etc. However, nearly all the staff spoke very very little English (which you could argue is our problem not theirs) and this made it very difficult to organise things and simply communicate. There was however one... More

We just finished a wonderful six day stay in the Pousada Porto da Lua and we are already looking forward to come back ASAP. Me, my wife and our 2 kids just loved the place and the people that work there are friendly, open and happy people. And that’s what the Pousada is about, real Brazilians with all their happiness...

We just finished a Brazilian tour, four weeks altogether. The last stay was in Praia do Forte, Bahia, where we first stayed in a small Hotel located in the village. By accident we strolled around the beach, and just after the light house we discovered the Pousada Porto da Lua in front of the reef. We immediately fell in love... More

We had a reservation for 6 nights in a "Superior" room. We booked in and went upto the room allocated - what a disgrace. It was shabby and unclean, the bedding was unfit and it lacked any ambience. We looked around the rest of the hotel whilst waiting to be shown an alternative room and were equally disappointed at the... More
