"Pros: The hosts (Gleide, her husband and kids) are exceptional, very kind and helpful, they know pretty well the island. They recommended me to visit Castelhanos' beach by walking first through different beaches like Moreré and Bainema and ending the trail crossing a mangrove, it was totally worth it. Also, you will get to kinda isolated beaches (Tassimirim and Cueira) with a 15-20 minutes walk from the hostel. The hostel facilities' are great and very clean. I used the kitchen to make breakfast and there was everything I needed. At night, don't miss the pizza they make. Cons: I did a last minute reservation so I didn't have a chance to talk to them about payment methods (my bad). You better bring cash (R$) in order to avoid an extra fee for paying by card (e.g. credit card)." ~Andresv
