We are an older, very active couple who spent a week in the incredibly beautiful Privillage Pousada. We stayed in a reasonably priced standard room with a garden view overlooking a well-tended colorful paradise of fruit trees and flowers. Bird songs and breezes were the accompanied music to our comfortable lodging with hammock and view.
The beautiful garden setting surrounded a lovely pool and several lounge areas with comfy couches and a restful sunken lounge with artistic tile work and attention to details.
We ate at several restaurants in the nearby town but our first choice was always to eat gourmet home cooked fresh meals at the Pousada. The breakfast is a large selection of delicious local fruits and fresh squeezed juices, many incredible sweet pastries and cakes, and of course, eggs and cereals. The friendly staff, and owners (Vinicius and Andrea) were especially helpful to our different food requests (vegetarian, and child friendly menu) and also intervened to clarify language difficulties.
The ocean in front of the pousada has a reef so the swimming and wave playing were fun and safe. There are miles and miles of pristine beach to walk, run, and experience Brazil and the friendly people we met.
We are very well -traveled and the Privillage Pousada is on the top of our list for the best experience we've ever had. One day we hope to return as there is so much more to explore in a true paradise with people that try to give you the best of everything!

The Privillage Pousada was one of the most wonderful places we have ever stayed. The Brazilian owners Vinicius and Andrea have really created a paradise. The place is a little magical garden literally right on a beautiful beach. The grounds are covered in flowers, mango, papaya, coconut, and cashew trees. There are two nice outdoor living rooms to stay in the shade, or out of the rain. The pool is very nice looking over the ocean. The restaurant is a cool thatched roof hut, and the food is great - always made fresh and from scratch. They were very accomodating of our specific requests. The breakfast is highlighted by an abundance of fresh beautiful fruits. Our days were spent rotating from the beach, pool, and restaurant, and we rarely had any need to go into town (which was a nice 15 minute walk along the beach). The staff were great, all with great smiles, super friendly, and quick to take care of any request. Most importantly, from the moment we arrived, and Vinicius greeted us with a shot of his own Cachasa, the owners really made us feel welcome and we were treated like like family (or even better :-)). We spent many moments in great conversation with homemade coconut drinks, and always felt like they were doing everything to make our visit as perfect as possible. We have new friends in Vinicius and Andrea, and all of us can't wait to get back there.

I stayed there for one night only, after canceling 1 night (working as an air crew, we had schedule change, and the owner was nice enough to not charge us anything for the cancelation, even though we notified him only a day before).
The location is at the far end of the village, a little far from the center, but other than that- just perfect. Overlooking the ocean, among trees and a dining room with the ocean view. What can you ask more?
Rooms are a little small but cozy with a hammock in the porch.
The owner is a great conversation gentleman and he even arranged to get us to the village with his driver instead of a taxi. The food at dinner was very tasty as it was a local dishes, like I asked. I recommend this place very much!

The gracious owners have carefully created a garden oasis on this Arraial d’Ajuda beach, just meters from the famous Pitinga beach. They tastefully designed and built the dining room, outdoor living room, pool decks with cabana, and pousada rooms with natural materials and details. At breakfast, the homemade cakes and fresh juices were first class, and one could order eggs as well. Their staff was friendly and helpful. The owners even incorporated eco-friendly rain, gray, and black water systems into their landscape. I do recommend them for a quality vacation.
