I would stay at this location again. I loved where it was located in the town, the breakfast was good, and the family who owns it was BEYOND kind.

We had the pleasure of spending almost a month at Pousada Aquarela in Morro de São Paulo, and it was truly a wonderful experience. Our room was a cozy studio with a small kitchenette, which was more than enough for our needs and made everything super convenient. The location is magical—surrounded by nature, with birds, trees, flowers and even the occasional monkey. It’s incredibly peaceful and close to a secluded beach where you can walk to Gamboa at low tide. That beach is perfect for a quiet swim, with no noise or crowds and even some coral to explore.
But what really makes Pousada Aquarela special is the family who runs it. They’re originally from Argentina, and they truly go above and beyond to make you feel at home. In the mornings, they serve a wonderful breakfast with fresh fruit, granola, and homemade yogurt—everything natural and delicious. In the evenings, the place transforms into a cozy Argentinian bar with artisanal beer, freshly made empanadas, pizzas, and sometimes even live music from a small band. It all creates a warm, friendly atmosphere where you feel like you're among friends.
All in all, it’s a place that feels like home, and I can’t recommend Pousada Aquarela enough for a peaceful, welcoming stay in Morro de São Paulo.

Really cute atmosphere and nicely located close to the centre and a quiet beach. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast.
The room was just not clean. Kitchen bedroom and sheets were old and dirty. Things kept breaking as well.
