Pousada Iracema Beach Villa

It's very close to Crush beach, which is why it's almost impossible to sleep; there's motorcycle noise practically all night long.

Wonderful guesthouse, close to the beach, near the market and laundry. Super attentive and charismatic staff. I recommend it!

It was good, but there wasn't enough hot water.

The reception was awful, the staff were rude. The breakfast was very poor.

The guesthouse is simple, and its HUGE advantage is the location. Nearby there's a pharmacy, restaurants, the Iracema beachfront, a supermarket, etc. Breakfast included eggs, sausage, bread, cakes, fruit, cheese, juices, and on Sundays there was also cheese bread. The guesthouse does have many stairs; if you're traveling with elderly people or people with reduced mobility, I wouldn't recommend it. Whenever I needed to resolve something with reception, they were very helpful. My group used two rooms: the double room with one bed, the room was small and the bathroom large; the quad room for two adults and two children, the room was large and the bathroom small. For the price, it was worth it for me, as it was affordable, had everything we needed, the location was good, and the guesthouse delivered on its promises. The nightlife around the guesthouse is quite lively, so if you have trouble with noise, it might not be a good option.

We stayed for 3 nights. The guesthouse is very simple and rustic. I liked the quality of the sheets, pillows, and towels. The location is excellent, close to everything, a highlight of the guesthouse – pharmacy, mini-market, restaurant, everything nearby. The guesthouse doesn't have parking, but there are two lots right next door; for guests, the daily rate is R$30.00, about a 3-minute walk. Breakfast is VERY reasonable; they have some natural juices, but I found them all bad, very watery, and the worst part of all is that breakfast is served on the blanket; you have to climb 3 flights of stairs (a point of attention for those with mobility difficulties). Breakfast is served until 10:30 am. The guesthouse doesn't have an elevator, and most rooms require climbing stairs, which is terrible for those with a lot of luggage!! I'm sharing a situation that left us a little unhappy. There was a receptionist who, every time he saw us leaving, asked us to leave the room key, and when we asked why, he said it was so we wouldn't lose it. One day we left and took the key with us, and when we returned we saw that someone had entered the room. However, the sheets were very poorly folded, and the room was dirty, meaning they entered the room even without us leaving the key! And they didn't even bother to tidy up properly.

The guesthouse is located next to a favela (slum) and there is a lot of noise from motorbikes at night. Breakfast is far below standard, with the ham smelling bad, and the quality of the rest is very questionable. The room was dirty and in need of renovation... I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The inn was really nice, very rustic. There were three of us, and we stayed in a spacious room with three beds, one of which was a double. The room had air conditioning, a wardrobe, and a TV (the sound was bad, malfunctioning, but we were very tired, so it was okay). The bathroom had a gas shower, but unfortunately, the shower wasn't heating up. The breakfast was simple but everything was perfect, with a beautiful view. Despite some items not working properly, we liked the inn, and the location was good too.

Terrible service overall. The room wasn't clean, there was a leak in the bathroom which I complained about every day for five days and they never fixed it; it was always flooded. Both the shower and the sink faucet sprayed water everywhere, soaking the entire bathroom. It doesn't have a sea view as advertised, and the noise from outside is unbearable, something they don't tell you about when you make the reservation. In general, it was dirty; the sheets were stained, and one day they changed my towels and left them on top of the bathroom trash. They offer excursions but don't schedule them, then they change them for others and leave you waiting. The breakfast is poor, with no variety whatsoever, and if you go first thing, there aren't many options. Rest? Impossible. They're doing construction, hammering, and talking all the time outside your window, all day long. I really don't recommend it and I would never return.
