5 Words can´t explain!
Backpackers Share House, amazing stay, relaxing vibe from the locals, the culture, the village, if you can be there for long weekend, you will experience it all! The village comes alive, the families get together celebrating their big three-day party on the beach, local bands. Amazing stay!

5 Good hostel
we spent two nights in a triple room there. The room was small but very cool. There is a lot to do in this hostel. They organize dinners and going out together with their other hostel backpacker sunset, so you can meet a lot of other travelers. The staff are very nice and helpful. The location is maybe a hundred meters to the beach. You can use some beach equipment for free. we unfortunately could use only the DVD collection there, it was very cold and raining (july). There is also internet to use for free. Maybe the only one minus was the cold and no heating in the room (which is common in Brazil) but they gave us some extra blankets. I can recommend it!

5 First class all the way!
Probably the most beautiful hostel Ive ever seen, overlooking a great beach. I was here for Carnival 2009 and this place did not disappoint. Run by a young Brazilian girl (who is awesome!), there is a good vibe here. They have an honesty system for drinks and food, but dont worry, the most we had to pay as a group was 1 or 2 reals for the people who stole (or just forgot to mark it down). Very honest people work here, would highly recommend it!

4 Excellent fun
I stayed here four years ago and I had the best time ever. I always wish I could go back but I think I am a bit too old now as it is definitely a party hostel. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and I loved the unique honesty sharehouse system and "mi casa su casa" attitude.

3 It looked awesome from the outside, like a castle on the water.
This is definitely a party hostel. People from all over the world were here and it's a great place to meet new people who like to party while traveling. If you are looking for a hostel where there's always something going on, there's tons to do, and you don't mind sleeping on one-hundred-year-old pieces of foam, come here. Watch out for geckos in your bed! We aren't the party type of travelers so this wasn't ideal for us, but it was still great to have free use of surfboards, boogie boards, kayaks, and whatnot. Right on the beach and lots of friendly stray dogs to keep you company!
