The pousada is well placed to access both Praia Grande and Praia dos Anjos and the staff were friendly and helpful. However, the rooms were really disappointing, the overall feeling being one of dirtiness, lack of maintenance and general lack of care. There was a hole in the wall behind the bed, the sheets were dirty and duvets had no cover, the fridge was dirty and broken, we found insects in the shower and there was mould on the tiles, and on the day our room was supposed to be cleaned, the bathroom had been left untouched, meaning it felt quite unhygienic to use for the following days. Breakfast was adequate but basic and repetitive, swimming pool didn’t look clean and sauna was more like a steam room. Overall very disappointing and we left two nights early

Know before you go

  • Consider checking recent reviews for updated information on room cleanliness before booking
  • If possible, request a room inspection upon arrival to ensure it meets your standards
  • Visit during weekdays or off-peak seasons for potentially better rates and fewer crowds
  • Explore nearby restaurants instead of relying solely on the pousada's dining options for more variety

Reviews

While the Pousada Porto Praia is conveniently located near Praia Grande and Praia dos Anjos, offering friendly staff and adequate breakfast, several guests were disappointed with the cleanliness and maintenance of the rooms. Issues included dirty sheets, broken appliances, insects in the shower, mold on tiles, and uncleaned bathrooms. The swimming pool was not well-maintained either. Despite some positive aspects like location and service, many visitors found their stay to be unsatisfactory.
