Perfect haven to relax
Super calm place, away from all the action in Abraão, which was great for us. There's a private beach, and the Pousada has kayaks we can freely use to explore nearby places (we went all the way to Abraão). Still, going to Abraão regularly was no issue as there's a boat that makes the trip regularly, charging 15 reais a trip per person. Breakfast was nice and varied, and the rooms were great (with a great view from the balcony and large areas). There's also a drying rack, which is super useful.
Our only issue was with the shower. If too many people showered, or for too long, the water would be cold. I guess this is not an issue during the summer, but we went in July so it was not pleasant.

Pleasant
Beautiful spot. Quiet. Good swimming. Free kayaking.
Communication for English speakers was limited. In our room it was indicated the boat to town was on the hour from the resort & 15 min past in town. However, it was only after waiting a number of times (accumulatively hours) that we were told we needed to What's App staff. We weren't even given the What's app number until after writing numerous messages on the Booking.com message app. I suggest only staying here if you don't mind waiting at a jetty for long periods, you are a bit stranded. The walk is at least 30 min, and difficult in the dark, as it is not well maintained. Breakfast was a bit unorganised, we had to find the bowls and granola ourselves one morning.

Great location, friendly team, chill holiday
Great location, close to main town but quiet. Really appreciated the kayaks available to use at anytime. Also liked that there was a TV and good internet for the rainy day. Staff are really helpful, helping to book trips. The view from the rooms is perfect and plenty of places to sunbathe or relax in the grounds by the water.

Extremely overpriced and very dirty accomodation. Would NOT recommend to anyone. You are warned.
The location was good. Private beach and easy to reach the village Abrao with a 10minute boat ride. Fabio the boat guy was nice and friendly. Kayak use was free. Balcony with sea views was great.
Normally I never leave a review even though the experience was bad. I make this exception to warn people. This accomodation is way overpriced and should be half the money. Our experience in a nutshell: 1. Sand in bed on arrival and stains on the pillows. 2. Ants in the bed and on the walls. 3. Spider webs in the shower. 4. Humid smell in the room. 5. Fungus on the mirror. 6. Refrigerator with rust on it and extremely dirty inside. 7. Everything extremely outdated. Last maintenance was in the 80s probably. 8. Water bottles in the refrigerator you have to pay for without mentioning it. You will notice on check out. 9. Wifi not available because of the bad connection. 10. Breakfast was very limited, especially for the price of the accomodation. We drank the coffee, ate the mango and went to the village for breakfast. 11. Everywhere warning signs about saving water, no daily clean towels to save the planet while you know that it is only for their own economic reasons. 12. Kayaks are free available but ALL lifevests are totally ruined and ripped open. All in all it was a very bad experience and I cannot believe people leave positive reviews. The island itself is one of the most beautiful islands I’ve been and I traveled alot in my life. The owners should take a good look at themselves asking so much money for a clearly neglected accomodation. I regret that I didn’t take pictures to upload here so you can see for yourself.

A pretty, secluded place
This is a getaway from a getaway, a tiny pousada (about 9 rooms) that's a 10-minute boat ride from the tiny main village on a beautiful island. The ride is (currently) free and arrives promptly when you call the good-hearted "sailor." The room is large and comfortable, the bathroom is enormous, the grounds are pretty, and you can't beat sitting on the private veranda looking over the little bay.
The isolation can be a plus or a minus. Recent rains washed out the path to town, so your ONLY access to the pousada is by boat. The landslide also disabled the restaurant, so you cannot get anything more than breakfast or a basic sandwich on site. If this had been made it clearer, we would have planned our day by eating in town at lunch and bringing back some food for dinner. Given all the pluses and minuses, this pousada is not the best value, but you are paying island prices.
