Hotel - Pousada D'Areia Barreirinhas Lençois Maranhenses

Small room toilet and toilet cup Very small plastic, low quality sink, air conditioner could disturb those from bothering the direct air jet. Great Strategic Location, Staff Very Polite, Local Well Cleaned, Good Breakfast, Price a little High But slightly higher level structure than other B&B in the area. great location do not hear noise like in b & b on the river

The communication was very easy and fast, room was clean and the pictures are honest about describing the place. Very clean, well located and staff very attentive and kind. It is simple but was like expected. The breakfast is good considering the standard of the hotel. I recommend if you are looking for some place to sleep and will be out all day exploring the beautiful landscapes surrounding.

We had booked one night from this pousada as some better alternatives based on booking.com ratings were not available. We were directed to our room which was very basic. Not bad, but nothing nice either. There was a note that hotel would charge extra if we would lay on the bed would sun lotion on our body. then we checked the linen and they were fairly dirty. Yes, people go to Lencois Marenhenses from this place so they have sun protection and sand in their body. Having paid R$192 for one night, it would be expected they can change the linen often enough to have them almost clean. I'd understand a small dirt here and there. We asked for new linen but the lady said that wouldn't be possible but we could look at another room. We went there and it was slightly bigger and linen were better, although not completely clean. The lady in the reception did her best and I'd guess the issue is with the owner who doesn't allow buying new linen often enough.||||Other than that, this would be good basic accommodation. You have decent room although without any decoration and we think the breakfast was good unlike some other comments indicate. The problem is that you can find so many better places with the same money in Barreirinhas. For the 2nd night in the town, we booked Pousada Paraiso dos Lencois which was R$8 more and so much better.||||So, I wouldn't go to Pousada d'Areia unless there are no better option available.

Stayed 2 nights here and overall, no major complaints about this hotel. It's not a special hotel but it ticks all of the essential boxes.||||Pros:||- Good location, only a few minutes walk to where the boat tour starts and to the main street for food and shops||- Effective A/C in room, nice little balcony with hammock||- Friendly staff but English is limited||- Spacious room and clean||- Parking available within the B&B complex||||Cons:||- breakfast limited and not particularly tasty, especially the juice which wasn't really drinkable. It tasted like water but it was coloured with the right fruit colour. A bit disappointing as LP described it as a "good breakfast".||||Overall it was a good hotel and I would stay here as location is pretty central

On a visit to Northern Brasil earlier in 2013, we decided to visit São Luis, in the state of Maranhao. Our main aim was to visit the National Park of Lencois Maranhenses. The Town that we decided to stay in during our visit was Barrenhas. We arrived at the Town and looked for a Hotel to stop at whilst we explored the area. We booked into the Pousada d'Areia. What a little Gem of a place, right in the centre of the Town. The bus stops right outside of the front door, and you really are in the middle of it all. The hotel is quite small, just a couple of apartments and about eight double rooms. The rooms are quite adequate for the normal traveller, Good comfortable beds, a Clean Toilet and Shower, a TV and Coffee and Biscuits. The meals in the Dining Area are absolutely great, everything that you could wish for. The Staff are a bit cool at first, but are really kind and most helpful. The price we found to be a very pleasant surprise, very affordable, and we would reccomend this Hotel without reserve.||.

This is a cosy and friendly place to stay when visiting the famous Lencois Maranhanses. It is listed on the Lonely Planet guidebook. It is well located, rooms are simple and well kept. Rooms have balconies with a hammick and AC. The breakfast is delicious with the traditional tapioca, cottage cheese and typical fruits including acerola and açaí. Very good prices too!

Well located close to all the restaurants and agencies, rooms are clean and have a balcony with a hammock!Breakfast was ok, nothing special. Staff was friendly and helped us book a boat trip. The pousada is not charming or special, but if you don't plan on spending the entire day here, this is a good choice!

I would not recommend this place if what you're looking for is hospitality and comfort. The breakfast isn't that great and the owner is straight up rude.There were two helpful and sweet employees but the rest of the team were extremely disappointing. My boyfriend got sick and had a fevers while we were there and the staff refused to open the hallway closet to grab him extra sheets and a pillow for him to be more comfortable. Just completely rude.
