Cleanliness
6
Multiple reports of moldy/yellowed pillows, sand in the pool for days, flies at breakfast and old bedding — cleanliness is a clear weakness.
Service
9.9
Consistently praised: attentive, cordial and helpful staff; a single communication lapse (WhatsApp) during a power outage was noted but overall service is excellent.
Location
9.9
Very good location — close to Ferradura beach and within walking distance to the center; several guests highlight location as a major positive.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed: some rooms clean and comfortable, but many mentions of poor maintenance (old fixtures, leaking toilet, minimal/worse shower, hard beds) that lower the score.
Amenities
8.4
Good structure and a comfortable pool reported, but issues: pool cleanliness at times, weak AC, few power outlets, and lack of baby facilities (no high chair/microwave).
Value for Money
9.5
Several guests call it good value and appropriate pricing for the area; one report disagreed, but overall perception leans strongly positive.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast frequently described as excellent and varied; a few negatives (flies on food, no takeaway for early departures) but overall F&B is a strength.
Overall Experience
8.6
Overall positive stay thanks to location and standout staff, tempered by cleanliness and room/maintenance issues — a pleasant but imperfect experience.

Pros:

Bem localizado! A estrutura é excelente, mas mal aproveitado Destaque para o atendimento dos funcionários que são extremamente atenciosos, cordiais . O Café da manhã é bom e com variedades.

Cons:

Possui uma boa estrutura , mas está muito mal aproveitado. A manutenção deixa a desejar. O box do banheiro é horrível! Sem falar o chuveiro que é mínimo. Infelizmente no restaurante tem música ao vivo que o barulho vai para todos os quartos. A piscina estava cheia de areia de praia por dois dias.

Boa
Pros:

Os quartos bem limpos, e o local tem um potencial para ser para ser uma excelente pousada com tudo perfeito mas peca em algumas coisas.

Cons:

Houve uma falta de energia e infelizmente não tem como controlar isso, mas acho que faltou um pouco de empatia da parte dos funcionários para poder avisar que estava tentando resolver o problema, automaticamente o Whatapp da própria pousada ficou inativo e ninguém respondia o que tinha acontecido, é um ponto bem complicado foi a questão de na hora do café da manhã tinha muita mosca pousando nos alimentos, e ninguém fazia nada para evitar isso, nem um paninho nem um afastador de mosca nem nada, acho que melhorando o atendimento via WhatsApp e a questão do café da manhã tudo ficaria mais agradável !
