“Perfect Pousada”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2010

The Pousada is located 20min walk from the old town center Pelhourino. Pelhhourino is a tourist area, but quite clean and great for sighseeing. As long we walked on the main streets in Pelhourino, we felt safe, even during the night.
Staff at reception speaks basic english. The breakfast is perfect. Order a room with sea view then you get a nice view to the harbour. The rooms ihave colonial style design. I believe there is no better Pousada near Pelhourino.

“Beautiful colonial pousada, a hidden gem!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2010

We loooooved Pousada do Boqueirao. After trekking around in Lencois and a long bus ride to Salvador, Pousada Boqueirao was an oasis of elegance and charm. We stayed in the big colonial room—it was huge! Very nice wood furniture, view of the street, big bed, indoor hammock ... it had a shared bathroom down the hall, but the bathroom was very nice, large, and clean and I didn't ever see another guest or have to wait. The owner and staff were very helpful, it felt secure from the street with a buzz-in front door. For breakfast there was a huge spread and we dined on the outdoor patio overlooking the city and bay. Gorgeous.

“Beautiful art and aesthetics, fresh local food, outstanding service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2009

The proprietress Fernanda and her staff made our stay comfortable, beautiful, easy and tasty. Both Fernanda and her brother Nino went out of their way to guide us, make reservations at other locales, support our business needs. The staff were always ultra helpful and filled with good will. Fernanda's decor is chic but steeped in traditional style.
We don't want to go home!!!
I couldn't have imagined a better experience - and I am VERY picky! ;-)

“Great breakfast, shame about the owner!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2009

We stayed here for five nights and as everyone has already said, the breakfasts are amazing. We also had dinner here one night (must be booked in advance - they get busy and only accomodate a few people!) which was the best meal we had in Salvador. The room we had (room 9) did have a good view but it was a squeeze to get around the bed and the bed was the hardest bed I've ever slept on! The owner (who was the only person who spoke English) was not particularly friendly either which put a real dampner on the place. The tourist information place was rubbish so we really could have done with his advice - fortunately, we met a couple who were staying in Hotel Casa Bella and their owner welcomed us with open arms, chatted to us, advised us and even gave us a free drink! Next time, we would stay there!
