Me and more 3 friends stayed in Pousada do Atoba for 3 days last February, 2013 I can assure you that it is a great option! We were immediately surprised, as we were expecting much less, taking into account the modest price we paid for the weekend. Luckily, we were upgraded (thanks Alice) to better rooms, and it was really... More

We recently spent two months traveling in South America, and Pousada do Atoba definitely is one of the best hostels in South America. The owner Aline is very nice, great English, and provides all kinds of useful information and services. She even allows us to stay longer in the room to catch the bus after passing the check out hour.... More

I chose this pousada after going through the reviews.Still,I was a little apprehensive about my choice.But I found out everything said about them was true and much more.we reached there on an evening with heavy showers.They first made us quite comfortable in our room and only then requested us to furnish the formalities.From then on during our 8day stay there,we...

We recently stayed at Pousada do Atoba while travelling through Brazil and have had a lovely relaxing time here. The staff have been so helpful with directions, things to do etc. The area is quiet and the beach is very close by. The pool area is also lovely. The rooms are large and comfortable...one of the nicest places we have... More

On holidays from Qld Australia, we visited Floripa for some seaside relaxation outside of busy Brasilian city life. The booking was easily made over the 'phone due to Aline's excellent English. When we arrived we were very pleasantly suprised at the beauty, cleanliness and privacy of this little hidden pousada. It has lovely gardens, a tidy pool and well appointed... More

This is the only bad review I've ever written and it's because they almost ruined our trip to Florianopolis. We used the pousada's website to reserve a 3-night stay ten days in advance. Aline responded, confirmed that we wanted a suite and not a chalet and that was it. I sent two additional emails asking how to get to the... More

I don't always review the places I stay, but I felt this one was different. Had a wonderful 5 day stay at their Pousada in the beautiful Florianópolis last month (December 2012) with my girlfriend. The quality of the rooms and facilities were higher than the usual Brazilian-beach standard and everything else like breakfast, WiFi, Cable TV, the usual stuff,... More

We stayed here from November 16 -21, 2012 and we really loved the place. It's comfortable enough and has all the necessities but what makes it so special is how welcome we felt by the family that owns and runs this pousada. The location is excellent as Santinho beach is a 10 minute walk and is less crowded and more... More

We had an amazing time at Pousada do Atoba. Aline and her family made us so welcome and it was such a great place to spend the end of our honeymoon. Our chalet was brilliant and perfect location for the beach. We hired a car and travelled all around the island - which we'd highly recommend. If you're unsure of... More
