Pousada Flor do deserto - Mandacaru

“Contente com o custo-benefício.”

Dona Célia is a lovely person; we didn’t even go through a formal check‑in or check‑out, she simply welcomed us and handed us the key without asking our names, and at check‑out she personally said goodbye. The beds were comfortable, the room had air conditioning, the place was very quiet and it was easy to enter and leave the lodge. The breakfast offered a good variety of fresh options and we were very satisfied. At night there were many insects and a frog that stayed in our bathroom; fortunately it never entered the room but it was a bit annoying. Our air‑conditioner unit made a lot of noise, so we turned it off at night, which wasn’t a problem for us but could be an inconvenience for someone else. There weren’t many dinner options nearby, especially on Sundays, but fortunately Santo Amaro is a very safe place and you could walk to restaurants in the center.

“Disappointing – the standard doesn’t match the good reviews”

The owner was friendly and when I was waiting for my transport at 5 a.m. she stepped out and offered me coffee, which I really appreciated; the breakfast was decent. I stayed three nights and was very disappointed, and I honestly can’t understand the many positive reviews. The overall standard is low: the water was discolored, the white bed sheets were dirty, the bathroom wasn’t clean and there were ants everywhere. The bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were too hard. The breakfast is heavily advertised, but it was just okay, nothing more. What bothered me most was that there was no information at all about check‑in. The location isn’t great either. Despite the friendly owner, I unfortunately can’t recommend staying here overall.

“Très bien”

The staff agreed to receive us before the usual check‑in time; nothing else was an issue, it was all very good.

“Voltaria e recomendo.Custo benefício excelente.”

The reception was warm and the owner of the lodge was very friendly. The room had a leak, but the owner said she would fix it during the low season, which didn’t affect our stay.
