Guest Reviews
- Javiera (9/5): - La hospitalidad de los anfitriones excelente, ayudaron mucho a mi pareja que se enfermó uno de los días. El desayuno exquisito, todo fresco, mucha variedad. Muy cerca del casco histórico, si bien no está cerca de la playa, estar en un barrio con esa arquitectura es muy bonito. Además el sector era bastante tranquilo. El Internet en nuestra habitación no era muy buena. No tiene televisión, sin embargo, si se va con la intención de desconexión está bien.
- Nelson (10/5): Inesquecível - Experiência inesquecível, localização, limpeza e atendimento do Marco e Nathalie. Nenhuma observação.
- Lawrence (10/5): -
- Ivan a Martina (9/5): - Opravdová domácí atmosféra. Mark a Natálie jsou skvělí. Bylo nám potěšením.
- celine (10/5): Emplacement parfait et hôtes extraordinaires - Nathalie et Marco sont des hôtes extraordinaires qui font tout pour que vous vous sentiez comme à la maison. Ils sont toujours disponibles pour vous conseiller, vous aider à organiser votre séjour à Salvador et aux alentours. Le petit déjeuner est délicieux et les chambres charmantes propres et confortables. L’emplacement est parfait pour se rendre à pied au centre historique de Salvador. Merci d’avoir fait de notre séjour à Salvador un moment si chaleureux et précieux Rien
- Leboeuf (10/5): - Zeer vriendelijke hosten, meedenkend, veel tips en tricks gegeven over de omgeving en wat te doen is. Ontzettend lekkere ontbijt! Het voelde echt als thuis. Helemaal niets, alles was perfect.
- Maria Rosa (10/5): - Café da manhã maravilhoso! Localização incrível! Natalie e Marco são super queridos!
- Castro (10/5): -
- Daniela (10/5): - Everything.... amazing stay Thank you Nathalie&Marco for all your help and kindness! You are awesome!
- Sabrina BERTHOUD (10/5): - Cette pousada est très bien située, à quelques minutes à pieds du quartier historique et d'une rue avec plein de petits bars et restaurants (donc certains avec vue magnifique sur toute la baie). Accueil vraiment chaleureux et agréable de nos hôtes, un couple franco-italien qui a beaucoup voyagé (Nathalie est anciennement d'Air France) : ça fait vraiment du bien de pouvoir communiquer en français (vu que pour les autres hébergements de notre périple, nos hôtes brésiliens ne parlaient ni espagnol ni anglais ce qui limitait les conversations !). Nathalie nous a partagé les bons plans (restaurants, bars, plages,.soirées concerts live..), nous a conseillé pour un choix de concert / festival. On s'est sentis "comme à la maison !" La plage la plus proche est à 10 minutes en uber. Le petit déjeuner "fait maison" est copieux et délicieux, il y en a pour tous les goûts avec notamment son gâteau maison sans sucre et dans gluten !
- Riccardo (10/5): A wonderful stay hosted by two truly warm sweet and welcoming hosts in Marco and Nathalie. The location is perfect for e - Clean, friendly, amazing location, value for money, unfussy
- Christophe (10/5): - Cette pousada est au top. L accueil, le petit déjeuner, le personnel, l emplacement. Tout est génial.
- Stéphanie (10/5): Super séjour à Salvador - Nous avons tout apprécié la gentillesse de nos hôtes et leurs bons conseils, notre grande chambre, la localisation et le superbe petit déjeuner. Ras
- Aurore (9/5): - Nathalie et Marco sont chaleureux et bienveillants ! Un petit déjeuner fabuleux et gargantuesque, de très nombreuses recommandations, et pléthore de conseils pour découvrir la ville et le quartier, bref ils sont aux petits soins ! On se sent comme chez soi, car ils font tout pour vous faire passer un séjour inoubliable. Nous avions la chambre du rez-de-jardin. La fenêtre donne directement sur le toit du jardin qui est malheureusement assez bruyant quand il pleut.
- valentina (10/5): - Tutto perfetto. Marco e Natalie sono persone squisite e attente a tutto. La colazione divina
- Frédéric (10/5): Pousada de rêve !! - Nathalie et Marco nous ont accueilli chaleureusement, on se sent tout de suite à l’aise dans leur pousada unique et charmante. Venir ici c’est l’assurance d’une belle rencontre et de discussions passionnantes sur la ville, son histoire, ses bons plans. Avec en prime un petit déjeuner exceptionnel (cet avocat aux épices, quel régal !) Grand merci pour la soirée Samba, un moment inoubliable !
- Agathe (10/5): Découvrir Salvador comme si on était chez de la famille - Nathalie et Macro ont fait part d’un accueil exceptionnel. Tout est pensé pour que le séjour et la découverte de la ville se passent au mieux, avec une chambre avec salle de bain individuelle, des conseils d’endroits à visiter ou de restaurants où aller manger. Ils procurent même des soins et vous remettent sur pieds lorsqu’un repas n’a pas été bien digéré.
- martine (10/5): - Accueil exceptionnel de Marco et Nathalie Poussada de charme dans un quartier calme . Le meilleur petit déjeuner de Bahia. Rien

- Ben (8/5): Good pousada with great breakfast in a great location. - The location is fantastic, the house is old and has a lot of character. Breakfast was abundant.
- Christina (10/5): FANTASTIC stay at Pousada Esmeralda and would highly recommend staying here! - Nathalie and Marco were exceptional hosts and went out of their way made my stay memorable. This is a fantastic place to stay. The home is in a great location and within easy walking distance to all activities and areas of interest. The home cooked breakfast spread each morning was a delight, with fresh breads, juices, eggs, etc. My room was spacious, light, clean, and nicely decorated with everything I needed. I loved staying here. Thank you Nathalie and Marco for your gracious and warm hospitality! Everything was fantastic and exceeded expectations.
- Michal (9/5): very good - Hosts are very kind and helpful, location is walking distance from Pelhourinho
- Frauke (10/5): Wonderful Pousada - Nathalie and Marco are wonderful hosts who welcomed me very warmly in their house. A wealth of information provided on Salvador, ongoing events as well as onward travel to the islands. MERCI BEAUCOUP!!!!

- Georgiana (10/5): Cosy pousada with very hospitable owners - the owners, the breakfast, location
- Evertravel (10/5): Where you feel like being at home - The place + the hosts + the breakfast + the location = perfect stay -
- Seema (10/5): Lovely pousada in Santo Antonio - The pictures don't do the pousada justice, it's beautiful. The pousada is in an old house that has been renovated by the owners. So if this is what you're looking for, it's perfect. The hosts, Nathalie and Marco are so accommodating and were great to talk to. Giving recommendations, and taking us to the local market where we wanted to visit. The cat even allowed our son to harass him! The pousada in Santo Antonio is close enough, but yet far enough from the Pelourinho and also is close to a pleasant street with lots of bars and restaurants. Nothing to write about.
- Baskind (10/5): A home far from home 😊 - The hosts are super friendly and helpful They helped us alot and always with a smile The breakfast was big and delicious The room is clean, the wifi works great The location is great Best place to stay in the area for sure
