This hotel was average. Bed wasn't very comfortable. The rooms need some attention, Tv was very old with few channels. Cleaning was just ok. The floors need to be cleaned better. The area felt safer then other areas we visited in sketchy salvador. On the positive side, the property is well kept, breakfast was very good, receptionist spoke english, security... More

As a bottom line the hotels in Bahia are very basic an d expecive in Salvador. Not wothing the money. This hotel/pousada is no diffrence but if you accept the fact that in Bahia the standards are way lower than in Europe you can live with it. The breakfast is very good even it is not bufet. The receptionist speks... More

We stayed for 8 days in this small pousada. The staff was so helpful-all of them! Great ideas for side trips and helpful with reservations and airport transfers. Also, restaurant recommendations. Breakfast was generous and also available until noon. We have only good things to say about Estrela do Mar. More

Stayed here for 8 days, after Carnival. The pousada is located in Barra, two blocks away from the beach, with plenty of restaurants, bars and ATM´s nearby. If you want to do some shopping, Shopping Barra mall is 10 minutes walk away. The pousada is a beautifully renovated colonial house, with gated access. Sean, the owner, runs a friendly and... More

I, like most of the other reviewers, loved Pousada Estrela do Mar and give it the best possible marks for cleanliness, helpful staff and owner, great breakfasts and proximity to the beach. I have one little criticism though. I just don't understand why there is a charge for wifi. I stayed for 6 nights in January of this year and... More

We stayed here for 4 days and were really impressed with the quality of accomodation and service provided by the staff . The location is on a leafy quiet street just a few minutes walk from the beach with some nice cafes and bars close by . The house itself is an old house with lots of carachter and beautiful... More

Had a lovely stay in Estrela do Mar. Sean, the lovely, warm, Irish owner, couldn't have been more helpful to us - managing to sort out our onward journey by calling his friends and finding pousadas (it was peak season and no room at any Inns!). The ambience of the hotel is charming and stylish. A lovely building bursting with... More

This is my second time staying at this pousada... The first was Aug 2007 and most recently Dec 2011... I wanted to convey to TA's readers that if you want a good location, fair rates, nice rooms, friendly staff, and tasty Complimentary Breakfast each morning of your stay...look no further.. Sean (proprietor) has got it down on how to run... More

Like Salvador or not, if you are there, this is a great Pousada to stay in, in quiet Barra by the beach. Lovely rooms, spacious, great breakfast, extremely helpful staff (thanks Robson and Kika) who tell you all the good stuff to see, book for you what you need, provide maps, and are just nice to talk to. Sean the... More
