Wonderful

Right off the beach. It can tend to be a bit noisy early in the morning with everyone putting out the beach chairs to get ready for the day. And loud at night with all the live music and foot traffic. That is not the hotels fault though. Something to think about when booking at 2nd Praia.
Breakfast every morning was great. Super friendly staff. If they don’t have the amenity for you the front desk typically knows a local who will provide the service. Such as laundry.
Pousada Bahia Tambor is a great option. Well located, service out of 10! The Pousada offers some amenities - we got drinks in 3 restaurants we visited. I will certainly return.
Our room was generally fine, but the walls were dirty with black marks, most likely left by other guests’ suitcases. The jacuzzi room we booked is also quite small.
At one point, the water stopped running completely before eventually coming back. You can also clearly hear when other guests are showering because the hotel has very poor sound insulation—you can hear almost everything.
Unfortunately, we had to change rooms because ours developed a water leak. When we entered the new room, there was a very strong smell of dampness and humidity. I quickly understood why the door to that room had been left wide open ever since our arrival—it was most likely to air it out after some kind of water damage.
When I asked the host whether this room had previously suffered water damage, he assured me that it had not. However, given the strong damp smell and the fact that the room had been left open for ventilation, I found that difficult to believe. Will I go back to this hotel ? NO
Upon arriving already we were having issues with the staff. We don’t speak Portuguese but we were using Google Translate with them which is fine we don’t expect for the staff to speak English. However, after 2 days of traveling to get there we did request to check in a bit early (15-30 min) after being absolutely disgusting from planes, bus, and ferry rides. The woman at the check in desk literally laughed in our faces when we explained to her that we just want a shower and we were aware that the room was ready.
Throughout our stay we were rejected simple services that hotels offer like room cleaning service and had to request several times for someone to come and clean the room and request fresh towels. In the end we also had to sweep our own floors in the rooms.
We ended up checking out 2 days early from their lack of service and when requesting a refund for the nights not used they refused and tried to get us to sign a form in Portuguese that we stayed the whole time we were supposed to. Thank god for Google Translate.
Excelente localização. Café da manhã muito bom. Quartos ótimos. Equipe muito atenciosa. Toalhas disponíveis pra usar na piscina e praia . Estadia de 5 diárias perfeita
A pousada está na melhor localização do morro de SP que é a segunda praia. Tem um ótimo café da manhã, um atendimento nota 10. Excelente instalações tanto nos quartos como piscina, a tarde ainda tem um café ou chá servido com bolo. Parabéns...
A pousada está muito bem localizada na segunda praia. Possui boa estrutura, os quartos são confortáveis, limpos e espaçosos. O café da manhã é bem diverso e saboroso. As piscinas e o serviço de bar merecem destaque. Fazem a diferença na hospedagem. Possui profissionais atenciosos e dispostos a ajudar quando solicitados. Com certeza retornaria numa próxima estadia em Morro de São Paulo.
Hotel com localização perfeita ,segunda praia ,uma das mais atrativas e movimentadas!
Só o cardápio do café da manhã que ainda precisa ter mais opções de frutas e comida.No geral excelente!
