Having read the enthusiastic reviews in advance, I have to admit that I was rather disappointed when confronted with the reality: - The ensuite room was really, really basic (the same goes for the bathroom) and rather small, whilst the rate was not exactly cheap (you will get much, much more for the same money in Lencois) - It was...

Someone met us at the bus station and took us to the pousada which was a bonus as although Lencois is small, its full of little windy streets and the pousada is towards the end of town. We stayed in a double room which was cosy and comfortable. We enjoyed the breakfasts every morning and the common areas are really... More

I met two friends in another pousada in Lencois and followed them to dos Duendes to have a look, since Mowgli from Duendes had given me a flyer for the place the night before and had even carried my heavy bag to the other pousada. Duendes is up a hill on the northwest corner of the main town, but it... More

I stayed here as it was the highest rated 'hostel' on a hostel booking site. It was certainly nice here, but it wasn't unbelievably great. Positives - free breakfast is always good. The pousada is located on a big property so there is plenty of space. And the bunks were comfy. A small 'common' area for meeting others. And hot... More

Duendes was recommended to me by a friend, and I was not disappointed...I had booked my room well in advance, and was super happy with it - spacious, pretty and clean, with a beautiful view over the Lencois hillside. Good fan, and a comfy bed with mosquito net. Great location not far from the town center, but with wonderful peace... More

This place was just fine for what we were looking for in Lencois- an ecenomically priced jumping off point for treks - but my camera and kindle were stolen out of my room the last day I was there. Based on a purchase that was made on my kindle by the thief before I had a chance to lock it,... More

This Pousada is a five minute walk from the main square in Lencois. It was very reasonable price wise and the rooms were very comfortable. My room was above the kitchen so it might have been a little louder than some of the other rooms but since there is a lot of wildlife around one tends to wake earlier in... More

I absolutely loved my experience at Pousada dos Duendes. Everyone was friendly and extremely helpful -- even doing their best to accommodate my friends and I for one night when the Pousada was totally booked. The breakfast was perfect, and the guides that work directly with the Pousada seem to be the best in Lencois (ask for Puma and Toni).... More
