One of the best hostels I've been to! The location is excellent - less than 5 minutes to the beach and also 5 minutes to the bus stop if you want to reach any other beach on the island! The staff is fantastic! And should I mention the best breakfast (included) in Latin America I've ever had in hostel? And really worth-the-additional-money dinner prepared every evening?

There was alot of happy smoke going around, so if you arent into that, maybe try somewhere else. But otherwise, great location, right next to the beach, and good cheap buffet every night. Owners were really nice.

Kind and interesting people! I highly recommend you to pass some days with these wonderful guys. Inthere you speak english spanish portuguese german... This is a real cosmopolitan hostel. The localization is perfect, Barra da Lagoa seems like a small village despite while it is actually the capital of the State! I loved there and probably will come back soon with many friends.

Great atmosphere, good location and a very friendly and nice staff to share a lot of fun! We really enjoyed our stay and of course we will be back again. Try the tasty caipirinha of the house and don't miss the delicious churrasco!
