    I loved to stay at Santo Mar Hostel: the location is perfect, super close to Praia Grande where you can see a beautiful sunset every day, and the staff is amazing! The volunteers are great, we became friends and they really made me feel like home. The owner, Rodrigo, was so helpful and kind: he offered me his avocado juice and a looot of support when I had troubles with my phone. Super recommended!

    Great localisation - Prainha beach is 5 minutes away, the town 10. We were usually able to return on foot even from more distant on foot due to low uber availability in town around 5/6 PM. Nice vibe of the neighbourhood - mix of tourist and local life, still felt safe. The host and and their staff we're extremely caring and helpful and did their best to address some inconveniences we raised, in a timely manner. Apartament is spacious clean and pretty pleasant visually. Good restaurant across the street.
