Hostel Portunhol Reviews

Run down and drab. The staff were asleep in the hammocks a lot of the time and didn't help with any information about activities, how to get around etc. Water pressure is attrocious, and the sinks were blocked with hair. Walls are paper thin. Only positives were the location near Barra de Lagoa beach, free pool table and strong wifi.

Close to the beach, clean, nice and friendly staff and good equiped kitchen! Can defently recomend it

Staff were really great and very helpful. The owner Chris is lovely and so friendly. He gave us the 4 bed dorm to ourselves as we were a couple even though we booked the 6 bed one. Caipirinas are great too and cheap! Very relaxed atmosphere, will come back next time I'm around for sure!

Great hostel with lovely staff. Right on the beach too!

Awesome hostel, great value! Chris and Carlos were awesome and made our time there! Definitely recommend!

Simply fantastic! 50m from a spectacular beach! Excellent caipirinhas!

This hostel is exactly what I was looking for because I heard Florianopolis was a laid back place and this hostel does an excelent job representing the atmosphere of this peacefull island. The staff was awesome and very helpfull and I would definately recommend this hostel for anyone looking for a good time!

Dirty bathrooms and kitchen, for example ants on cutting boards, blocked up toilets, dirty water from the tap (brownish). No possibility to dry washed kitchen utensils so the stuff is just stapled next to the sink.

Very pleasant hostel, good location, superfriendly staff, would defo stay here again!!

It´s not the clean and comfortable kind of place, but with a good crowd, you´ll love it.

This is not the cleanest location, but the ambiance and the atmosphere between people and the staff were so good!! Reggae music in the morning, the breakfast is until 12, the staff is so cool!! We had a great time in this place! I recommend it!

The staff are amazing. Funny, friendly and very helpful!

It was so hot in our private room that we had to sleep with the window open. On our second night someone came into our room either through the window or the door and stole some of our valuables. The people from the hostel were shocked and very kind. We checked out a day early and there was no problem and didnt have to pay for the extra night.

Lively hostel in a good place near the beach and centre.

Amazing hostel !! Amazing staff !! Thanks

i didn´t feel good with this hostel.The building of hostel is old. 6 people dorm is too small.Atomosphere also i didn´t like. The only good thing is location. i don´t recommend this hostel.you should find other one.
