The pousada is nice but not as you see in the pictures. Our room was at the top and there is a long way up, with low light at night The breakfast was ok, nothing special. It’s one block and a half to the beach, they change the pool towels only every 2 days. The curtains doesn’t cover completely so you get light early. The bed mattress for the small bed had a bump very uncomfortable, and the bed sheets low quality.
Front desk people were kind and helpful

The property was good and a good location with a beautiful view of the ocean. Staff was friendly. It’s a VIP hotel but I didn’t receive any of the perks that were offered which was a big disappointment because I booked this hotel specifically for the perks.

The stay was perfect. The staff was very friendly and very service minded. They do not have anything in the mini bar in the room, but they do sell beverages at the reception, though not any alchoolbeverages, but you are free to bring them at no cost. The breakfast was conducted with a great view of the sea.

I shouldn’t have been disappointed because I knew what I was booking. I should have booked elsewhere. I guess I just hoped it might have been better. This is not a luxury hotel - and I knew that when I booked. But I’d hoped it might have been a special place to stay. One of those smaller places with style and charm. That’s what I’d been hoping for - especially given the price and many of the reviews. But I’m afraid the reality is it’s a slightly run down basic 3 star pousada. It does have nice views from its position on the hill overlooking Praia João Fernandes. It aspires to be stylish and ‘chic’, but sadly they skimped on the quality of materials and fittings - and on space. As a result it all feels slightly cramped and claustrophobic. It is ‘boutique’ in the sense that everything is tiny: tiny pool(s), tiny bed, tiny room (and I did make sure to book one of the bigger ones - the smaller ones must literally be cupboards). And because it was built rather shoddily, it is already beginning to succumb to wear and tear and to look tired. Other issues: the aircon was unbelievably noisy, the bed was small, basic and not comfortable - I did not sleep well here. And when you’re looking forward to a few days’ rest and relaxation it’s things like those (bed, peace and quiet, comfort etc) which are just so important. You don’t need to be a luxury hotel to get those things right. Another annoyance is that the internet didn’t work in the room - though,

The staff was extraordinary! Always asking if we needed anything or if we were content. The actual Pousada was incredible. One of the best I have ever stayed at. Stunning views, great food, only downside is no alcohol but the staff got some delivered to us which was great! We stayed in an ocean view room and it was definately worth every penny!! I will for sure be coming back here I loved every minute of my stay!! Also super super close to the beach.
