Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Walk to Lagoa Azul is 20 minutes — The nearest landmark is a pleasant but not short stroll, and the beach requires a 15-minute drive.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 22:00, so late arrivals may need to plan ahead.
  • No private bathrooms in dorms — Dorm rooms list only a shower, not a private bathroom, which is typical but worth noting for those used to more privacy.
