Warning - 105 steps leading up to Pousada (highest Pousada in town). But worth every step. Owner helpful during booking process - booked catamaran from Salvador, helped with flights and offered help in potentially difficult situation. Set in beautiful and peaceful environment with stunning view overlooking sea. Breakfast average and look out for monkeys at 6am (although we weren't lucky... More

This pousada, a 5 minute walk from the hustle and bustle of the center of Morro Sao Paulo, is well worth the 80-some stairs you'll have to climb to get there. You will find simple but nice and very clean accommodations, nice pool with a spectacular view of the ocean, all that nestled in luscious gardens. Add a generous breakfast... More

We have had a more than terrific stay at pousada Colibri! The location is marvellous, on top of a hill with a seaview. Away from the very touristy center of Morro, but close enough to the beaches and restaurants. The owners are very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast one of the best we've had during our stay in Brasil. Definitely would... More

Yes, you do have to walk up a hill to get to the pousada, but the hill's not that big, and the view is worth it. When we arrived Marga took the time to talk to us about everything on the island. Helmut is like clockwork and very reliable. Between the two of them they arranged a last minute tour... More

A splendid place with very friendly hosts, an outstanding breakfast, a beautiful and clean swimming-pool with amazing view and nice, clean and simple bungalows. All that you need to stay longer than scheduled ;-) Book in advance to get your stuff carried up on the hill and you just need to climb about 150 steps to paradise. More

I can't think if anything negative to say about this place. It is one of my favorite places and I must go back and stay longer next time. I stayed 5 days, which was great, but a week would have been better. The location is not for everyone, because you have to climb up a hill (147 stairs), but if... More

The first thing you notice about the Pousada is that it is a hell of a climb up the steps, however you are rewarded with the amazing view from the top and it is a good way to get you daily exercise! Not good for those with an aversion to exercise or people with bad knees, or heart for that... More
