“Beautiful, clean, fantastic team really wants you to feel comfortable and welcomed <3”
Delicious well balanced breakfast with fresh fruit, coffee, bread which can be heated on a panini oven, cheese, meat, cake and eggs. Always ready from 7:30 to 10:30, with clean breathable cover over plate so no insects fly on your food. A nice ambiance of many different nationalities and great way to meet others.

“My favourite place so far.”
Hosts were excellent. Although I don’t speak Spanish/portugese the owner Kari was so warm and welcoming! Breakfast was great, house was quiet and chill. Would recommend to anyone wanting to visit the beautiful island.

“Lovely stay”
Great breakfast and lovely staff. The breakfast was bread, eggs, cheese, ham, cereal and fruit with tea and coffee. On the day I checked out I had an early flight and the host made me breakfast to bring with me. There were curtains on all the beds and big lockers. It was also very clean.

“Amazing hostel”
Everything, the place was super clean the entire time and they are constantly cleaning throughout the day. The common space is very cosy and has a very homey feel. The staff especially Karina are all fantastic and always willing to help. It's a very peaceful space and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. The bathroom is very spacious and probably the cleanest I've seen in any hostel One of the best hostels I've stayed in Brazil

I think the hostel is a very good option for those who want to feel like at home. It is a big very cozy house, clean place with a nice decoration. The staff is really nice and careful. I felt very welcome there. My flight was late and Gabriel was patiently waited for me to check-in later in the night. The location is also good, close to local restaurants, cafeterias and stores. In a short walk you can be at the famous Lagoa das Rendeiras, or take a boat to Costa da Lagoa for traditional food or trakkings.
