Great location
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and thought it was ok, not great, not horrible. During our stay there was barely anyone there so it felt a bit deserted, however it was the off season during the week so that's not their fault. There was one person who spoke GREAT English, however she was only there part of the time and the rest of the time no one could help us with anything so we had a hard time finding bike rentals, places to eat etc. Pros: Clean room, great location on the beach and close enough to town, good breakfast Cons: Wifi didn't reach our room
Perfect for surfers
This Pousada has a very good location. You'll be just a few steps of the very best Brazil's surf spot. Just ask for a room with a beach view and you'll have a wonderful view of the beach and how waves are without even leaving your bad. Saquarema is different from the others cities of Rio's Lakes Region. It's a very quiet and rustic place. It's almost in the same way it was 30 years ago.
Lovely!
The Pousada was clean, cheap and people were friendly.
Best hidden quiet paradise 1 hour and a half from Rio
My first trip to Saquarema was in 2007, when I discovered Espuma da Praia. Was the following weekend after Carnival Ash Wednesday (one of the busiest travel times in Brazil) and for my surprise the beach in front of the Pousada was simply empty. Espuma da Praia was such an amazing surprise that I decided to return a couple of months ago. Itaúnas Beach for me is the place to go when I want to unplug from the world and just have the feeling of having the entire beach for yourself only, and the best of all, it's just 1 hour and a half north of Rio. Ask for the room 16 or 18 (not sure which one) with a jacuzzi overlooking the ocean! Excellent Breakfast with a great variety of Juices, Cakes, Breads, The Maasai hotel is located in one of the busiest parts of Itaunas and it's dark and don't understand why it's so well rated. Espuma da Praia with that gorgeous pool garden right on the sand for some afer beach caipirinhas is unbeattable ! Saquarema is not very recommended for small children though, The sea is rough and Saquarema is also know n as the Surf Capital in Brazil. If you like quiet desertic beaches, Saquarema and Espuma da Praia are the perfect combination !
Esperava mais.
Acomodações ruins para o preço cobrado. Fiquei 5 dias. Tv pequena, não pegava todos os canais, a luz da sacada estava com defeito, a tomada do banheiro estava com defeito, não retiraram o lixo do banheiro e não tinham limpeza do quarto, perguntei se poderiam fazer e me falaram não ser possível por conta do COVID-19 (???), mas deixei pra lá. O café da manha no primeiro dia que fiquei teve pouquíssimas opções, mas nos dias seguintes melhoraram. localização boa, lugar tranquilo.
