Firstly, we were slightly confused when we arrived, as the advertised photo's of the pousada on this very website were actually of the green hotel next door. Cue some disappointment when we were shown our room, but in actual fact - it was everything we wanted/needed - with a hammock and balcony overlooking the sea. The rooms are quite small... More

We stayed at Federico's pousada (http://pousadafaroldasestrelas.com/) last August and we have a wonderful memory of our stay at Morro. When you arrive on the island, a lot of people arrive to offer you a deal, but in fact it's all quite expensive. Federico's pousada offers a great price/quality ratio. We had a room with a view on the sea and... More

We stayed in this pousada for about a month. The rooms are clean and comfy for the prices you pay (if you want luxury you would have to spend about 250 reais then) and the location is unbeatable. Close enoough to the nightlife but you cannot hear the noise! Also close to good restaurants and the fourth beach. The breakfast... More

We have just left Morro and the sensation is that we want to go back soon to the island and the pousada! As said by the other travellers, Federico is an outstanding host who does anything to make you feel comfortable! The rooms are daily cleanned and have air conditioning, frigo and TV. The breakfast is quite simple, but delicious.... More

Federico is a delightful and charming host who will do everything in his power to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. The breakfast is delicious and the value for the pousada was excellent. We especially enjoyed staying with Federico because there were other travelers staying at the Pousada to chat with. We were in Morro in low season, and many... More

One of the best places I've stayed at in this price range. Great value for money. Located right at the beach. And the owner really made an effort to make me feel at home - which is not something I can say about most other B&Bs I've stayed at as a solo traveller. More

This place is not a top notch luxury resort or a boutique hotel, like some other neighbouring hotels on Morro de São Paulo, for us it was exactly right. It is a small, budget pousada with only 5 or 6 rooms (2 with ocean view), situated on the quiet 3rd beach which is, in our opinion, the best location. The... More

We have booked 3 double rooms. But when we arrived in the third beach we found a bad surprise! The Pousada there was not, in the some place there was a market. This Pousada is close. I think it will be better if the website (tripadvisor) check the pousadas/hotels before. A terrible experience. More

Dear James, I'm sorry for what happened. The Pousada is rightabove the market, I started managing it on Oct 1st and after a quick refurbishing we opened on oct 10. We had no evidence of your reservation with the previous management. You are my guest for a week end in a time of your convenience. More
