The simple yet comfortable rooms feature air conditioning, a balcony with a hammock, TV, and a safe. The inn also offers a small pool and free parking for guests. What sets this place apart is its pet-friendly policy, welcoming small and medium-sized pets at no extra charge as long as they are accompanied and leashed in common areas.

The newly modernized and the new rooms were an ideally located, clean, and secure basecamp for our Pipa Experience.
The new owner did an admirable job, in my opinion. Crossing the street and walking in the ocean without stairs is a rare option in Pipa.
Would go back. Great place. Very comfortable and quaint
Besides not being safe (someone that was with me had their cell phone stolen), the rooms weren't very clean. The sheets and air conditioning were very dusty, my sister instantly had a sinusitis crisis whenever we turned the AC on. Also, the shower was very small in our room, you could hardly move inside the box.
The only thing that was good for us was the location, which is right in front of the central beach.

Reviews
Pousada Barbara offers a mixed experience according to reviews. While some guests praise its ideal location, clean rooms, and secure environment as a great basecamp for their Pipa adventure, others mention cleanliness issues like dusty sheets and air conditioning, small showers, and musty smells in the rooms. The staff receives mixed feedback with mentions of rude behavior from the breakfast lady but also positive comments about helpfulness from the night receptionist. Despite some room maintenance issues like broken pipes and dirty hot tubs causing disturbances during stays, guests still find value for money at Pousada Barbara.
