Hotels in Barra do Una
Barra do Una has one property that styles itself as a hotel: Pousada Una, rated 8.9 by guests from 61 reviews. It sits a 6-minute walk from the village, with an outdoor pool and free parking, and its nightly rate from 190 USD is the top of the range in this little set. The rest of the beach's lodgings are guesthouses and a villa that offer similar comforts – pools, parking, short walks to the sand – often for less, so the choice usually comes down to self-catering space versus hotel-style service. If you're after the formal facilities of a hotel you'll only find one; if you simply want a comfortable place by the sea, the other options on this page may suit you just as well.
Where to stay in Barra do Una
Staying in Barra do Una means choosing between the livelier beach end near the river and the quieter side of the village. The beachfront villa Delba Costa Smeralda – Barra Do Una sits minutes from Praia do Engenho, with a private beach and garden views, while Pousada Boraceia Beach – Barra do Una occupies the calmer, self-catering end with air-conditioned rooms and free Wi-Fi. Pousada Sambura is a 5-minute walk from Praia de Una, making it easy to reach the sand without a car. The whole village is compact, so distances are measured in a short stroll rather than a drive.
What it costs to stay in Barra do Una
Nightly prices in Barra do Una run from 155 USD to 190 USD, a narrow band that reflects the small number of places accepting bookings. At the top end, Pousada Una charges from 190 USD for a hotel stay with a pool and parking, while the beachfront villa starts at 155 USD and the pet-friendly Pousada Sambura at 115 USD – though the latter is a bed & breakfast rather than a hotel. Most of the cost goes into location and facilities: every place with a published price includes a pool or direct beach access, and all sit within walking distance of the sand. There's no seasonal breakdown in our data, but given the village's size, prices are unlikely to vary wildly outside peak holiday periods.

Frequently asked
How far is Barra do Una from São Paulo?
Barra do Una lies on the coast of São Paulo state, about a 2.5-hour drive south of the city along the Rio-Santos highway. There's no airport in the village; most visitors drive or take a bus to the nearby town of Juqueí or São Sebastião and then a short taxi or transfer.
Which part of Barra do Una is best for a first visit?
For a first visit, stay near the beach end close to the river mouth, where you can walk to the sand and the few restaurants. Pousada Sambura is a 5-minute walk from Praia de Una, and Pousada Una is 6 minutes from the village centre, so you won't need a car for the essentials.
Is it easy to walk around Barra do Una at night?
Yes, the village is small and walkable, with most stays within a few minutes' walk of the beach and central spots. Streets are unlit in places, so a torch helps, but distances are short and the atmosphere is low-key and safe.
Hotels in Barra do Una
Barra do Una is a small coastal village where the Una River meets the Atlantic, a strip of sand and rainforest on the southern coast of São Paulo state. The handful of places to stay here cluster along the beach road, a short walk from the surf and the river mouth, and most are pousadas – informal, family-run lodgings with pools and parking rather than big resort hotels. There is one formal hotel among them, Pousada Una, a 6-minute walk from the village, but the character of the area is set by the guesthouses and villas that fill out the rest of the beach.
Alongside the hotels on this page you'll also find a bed & breakfast, a villa and a guest house, so the choice is less about category and more about what kind of beach stay you want: a simple, self-catering base on the quieter side, a pet-friendly pousada steps from Praia de Una, or a beachfront villa with its own patch of sand. Prices for the places that publish them start at 155 USD and reach 190 USD a night, which buys you a pool, parking and a location measured in walking minutes rather than taxi rides.
The bottom line
If you want a straightforward hotel stay with a pool and parking, Pousada Una is the choice here, though it comes at the top of the price range. Travellers who prefer a homelier base should look at the bed & breakfast, villa and guest house options on this page. For more specific needs, check the pages for beach hotels, family-friendly stays, hotels with parking, or hotels with an indoor pool if those matter to you.
