This is a nice pousada,with a great location right on the beach and good value for money. It is next door to Pousada Farol das Tartarugas (also by the beach), a few houses down from Projeto Tamar and 5 minutes walk to the village. The sea in Praia do Forte is warm and colour and visibility vary greatly with tides,... More

This pousada is really wonderful and it deserves 1st place on TA. Everything about it is great: location, rooms, food, service, sunbeds outside, the beach. That's why I cannot believe the water!!!! I don't understand why people do not mention it in their reviews!!! Besides the ugly color of the water (Atlantic ocean) that is greyish dirty-lool-like greenish something, there... More

Great thing about this hotel is its location. It's located right at the beach. And all rooms face the ocean, which brings a lot of advantages: ocean views, ocean breeze and also you can sleep listening to the waves. Great experience. Another good thing about this hotel is its price. It is not so expensive as other options in the... More

If you want to stay in Praia do Forte, this is the hotel where to stay ! It is the only one directly at the beach, the sand starts already in the hotel premises and if you walk fast enough across it, you won't burn your feet before entering the wonderful ocean waters and enjoy some nice snorkeling. Once tired... More

Balcony was a great option and relaxing near the beach very charming. The town of Praia do Forte was fun and full of shops and restaurants. Beach was pretty good. Not the best ever, but more than fun. I would recommend this place and stay there again.

We spent 3 nights at the Pousada as part of our trip around Brazil. It was perfect for us, right on the beach (the Tamar project is just along the beach about 200m) and a short walk to the restaurants. Nice big room, with a good shower (they often aren't!) and great balcony with an ocean view. The room had... More

I really enjoyed stayng at the Pousada. The staff was friendly and helpful. My room was spacious and pleasant. The rooms have balconies that face the sea. I spent a lot of time on my hammock just feeling the breezes and listening to the sea. The beach is OK, but walking down a little bit it seemed to be a... More

We were looking for a hotel that would be a) boutique type, b) right on the beach, c) good feedback from Tripadvisor, d) not exessively expensive. We made the right choice with Pousada Porto da Lua. We spent 5 days in this hotel and felt very happy there. The room that we had was on the 2nd floor with a... More

We asked for a hotel where we could switch-off and relax for a couple of days after a busy time travelling round Brazil. Imagine Latin America recommended this very simple pousada. It is right on the beach and quite close to the busy little village but it is very quiet and unpretentious. No swimming pool and no air conditioning (not... More
