Guest Reviews
- Maria Teresa (8/5): Linda pousada, mas pode melhorar - Funcionários foram solícitos nos ajudando quando precisamos. O quarto era espaçoso, confortável e muito bonito. A piscina é gostosa e a localização, em frente a praia, é excelente. Número e presença de funcionários pareceu ser insuficiente para a demanda. O funcionamento do bar foi precário. Não há restaurante funcionando direito, se quiser fazer refeição lá precisa encomendar antecipadamente. Controles dos aparelhos de ar com problemas e pilhas velhas.
- Rita De Cassia (7/5): - A localização é excelente! Os funcionários eram atenciosos, delicados e prestativos quando solicitados. Mas sempre precisava acontecer algum pedido era pelo zap num horário específico. Penso se algum turisto estrangeiro estivesse la e precisasse algo mais a noite, alguma emergência, como ele ia se virar Mosquito e a pousada tem um espaço otimo mas pouco aproveitado. Restaurante com pouco funcionamento, sem serviço de beira mar... algumas áreas pareciam abandonadas. Café da manhã repetido, ao final da estadia ficava claro aa sobras, suco, virando refresco etc
- Vitor porto (7/5): - Localizacao Falta manutencao na infra estrutura e , equipe muito refuzida , restaurante/bar muito basico refuzido e sem alternativa
- metaphored (9/5): -
- Dora (9/5): - Lugar lindo com belo jardim. Refeições gostosas, roupa de cama e banho de excelente qualidade. Funcionários prestativos e simpáticos. Não tem serviço de praia, nem cadeira para levar praia e guarda sol.
Quiosque no deck da frente da praia não funcionou. Poderia ter uma TV ou música ambiente no quiosque em frente a piscina.

- Martoni (10/5): Maravilhosa, super bem recebidos e a culinária de lá é perfeita. - Os funcionários da pousada são extremamente solicitos e agradáveis, fizemos até amizade com o pessoal de lá. Nos sentimos em casa e super confortáveis. Acomodações incríveis e um visual paradisíaco.
- Enrico (8/5): Muito acolhedora e maravilhosa. - Excelente gosto na decoração e pessoal muito gentil . A pousada já tem seus anos e precisa de uma manutenção geral para manter o acabamento original que é de muito bom gosto . Sensação de um pouco de abandono .
- Daniel (9/5): -
- Soares (8/5): Ótimo lugar . Recomendo - Sim Sim
- Fernando (7/5): Natureza impecavel. Faltam processos em hotelaria e treinamento de equipe. - Lugar paradisíaco e diferenciado. Imersão na natureza. Falta treinamento e procedimento internos para os funcionários.
Acolhimento de Hóspedes na chegada deveria ser mais estruturado
- Anne (8/5): Bumpy road to paradise - Location : paradise ; nice breakfast; nice bungalows
The beach is magic and the location is the best one can have ; difficult because of the bumpy road but that makes it more attractive Communication is difficult , even with the British owner; once paid there is no communication anymore ; staff only speaks Portuguese
The venue needs some repair : no lights on the terrace of our bungalow for example and too dark inside the bathroom; pool is green
But it has a lot of potential
- Moura (8/5): A memorable stay in the south of Bahia - Overall, Butterfly has an excellent location, attentive staff and a spectacular breakfast. The beach in front is very quiet and very beautiful Due to the rain, the pool had greenish water and it was not possible to use it. The person in charge of cleaning was unable to leave the pool ready for use
- Hans (10/5): Exceptional - Very beautiful place, one of the best I ever was - a real paradise! Also my late arrival was handled perfectly. Garden with many exotic plants between the units are very special. Distances should also be mentioned on directions to the lodge. It's not close to the BR030, aroind 5 min thru the nature still.
- Hanna (10/5): Exceptional - Friendliest staff. Beautiful location and facilities.
Food is amazing, also fresh fruit juices. Lovely pool and beach area. Beach a bit hard for swimming but if you walk 15 minutes to the right there are natural pools that are amazing.
Extremely calm and relaxing, not much going on, so you should only go ifyou really want to disconnect and relax in a beautiful place.
Everything is really beautiful, great attention to detail and friendliest staff i met in all of Brazil Very hard to get there. Once you are there everything is perfect. But the road takes 2 hours because you can drive only 20km/h because it is so bumpy and muddy. If it rains you get stuck. Once you get there you also can't drive to other places. Recommended to get 4x4 but even that wouldn't be easy.
Room doesn't have fridge

- Anonymous (10/5): If you’re looking for an escape to paradise, don’t think twice about booking. - It’s just not possible to describe Butterfly House without using the word ‘magic’. Chloe and Lewis have created Eden on a white sand Bahian peninsula, where, amongst orchids, soaring banana plants, and dancing butterflies, we found a magical home from home.
There’s nothing at Butterfly House that can’t be catered for. The team aren’t just friendly, warm and welcoming… stay for long enough and they will feel like family. Huge thanks, especially, to Chloe, Lewis, Leilane, Elias, Netto, Mateo, and Guiu; although it seems unfair to single anyone out as absolutely everyone took exceptional care of us.
Thank you for making our birthday dreams come true. It was a once in a lifetime experience I’ll treasure forever.

- Nick (10/5): A really amazing experience to have so much comfort so far off the grid....heavenly.... - Breakfast delicious, so many interesting fruits and juices, and omelettes on demand. My favourite spot was the bar/loungers next to the beach...just so relaxing, then a splash about in the sea....
All the staff were so helpful and smiley, but also incredible invisible fairies who made my room immaculate when I went for breakfast...really slick!
- Ian (8/5): The Road To Paradise - The pousada is magnificent..a magical setting with a beautiful beach and well kep swimming pool.. staff are well trained and friendly...strong consistent wifi..hot showers with good water pressure...excellent food and more than acceptable breakfast.. The road to paradise is beset by potholes and mud...I guess if you want to get to Paradise you have to pay the price. 😄...
The roads are very bad and taxi prices are very very expensive...a trip of 6km costs $R 90😵
Bring lots of insect repellant...there are squadrons of mosquitos
- Guilherme (9/5): peaceful and nature-connecting stay - close to the beach and very friendly dogs as it is very secluded, the prices of the restaurant at the property were very expensive
- Lily (10/5): Our favourite place to stay in Brazil ! - Butterfly house is easily my favourite place I stayed, in all my months of traveling Brazil. The rooms are clean and stylish. The Food is delicious, everyone who works there is very friendly and the beach is absolutely stunning ! Nothing.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional - Butterfly House was the most magical place to stay in... a peaceful haven of beautiful nature located in the jungle with an ocean view and wonderful rustic rooms to stay in... all with their own individual quirky features. The gardens were immaculately kept with mature tropical plants and flowers to wander in. The wildlife of tropical birds and the marmosets who visit daily add to the all round jungle experience and the care and attention provided by the great team at Butterfly leaves you wanting for nothing... food and drink was excellent and we found it hard to leave. The only downside was that we didn't stay long enough and wished we had more days to enjoy... we are already looking forward to returning soon. We loved everything about it
- Chloe (10/5): one of the most incredible places I've ever stayed. attention to detail, comfort, staff, food and location all 10 ou - I had the privilege of staying at Butterfly house for a week recently and it was one of the most memorable travel experiences I've ever had. The attention to detail is incredible, every day I would find another nuance or nook and cranny to appreciate, subtlety placed to keep your stay more comfortable.
Chloe, the British owner is very fluent and knowledgeable of the area having been there for 12 years. She went out of her way to help us with the journey. It is a very long journey to get there from the UK; ferrys, speedboats, Jeep's, but one well worth taking as it takes you deep into the heart of Bahia culture and with every leg the stresses and strains of modern life dissipate.
Staff at the resort are very kind and conscientious and nothing was too much trouble. The food was wonderful especially as a vegetarian I had been struggling elsewhere in Brazil. The food was also really delicious. The polenta cake drizzled in jungle honey at the breakfast buffet was worth travelling 8000 miles for! As was the option of a açai sorbet from the local açai farm (well worth a trip to visit) or tropical fruit salad every morning. Lobsters and oysters were there to be ordered fresh from the local fishermen.
The tropical gardens are like something you'd pay money to go and view. But the fact it's all growing naturally blew my mind. The gardener is like a Zen Buddhist raking the sand every day, tending to the orchids or birds of paradise and the living roofs of the rooms.
The rooms were very comfortable and spacious, tastefully decorated with very comfortable beds, fridges and air-conditioning.
There is a very nice pool which is a perfect spot for a chill for the afternoon but just a few steps away and you're on the deck by the beach which tended to be the favourite of our group. The only difficulty is deciding whether to lie in a hammock, one of the raised beds or down on the beach on a sunbed with a beer form the bar there. having to leave 😃

- Mclarty (10/5): Incredible secluded beach
paradise on Bahian peninsula - Beautiful bungalows nestled within uninterrupted mata Atlantic forest, with a cosy restaurant behind which sits the post pristine uninterrupted paradise of wild bahian beach, expansive white sand and warm Atlantic waters. Either sit in the hammock steps from the sea or hang out by the small pool set within majestic gardens. Owner Lewis is an absolute gentleman and the entire staff make you feel absolutely welcome. The breakfast is a gorgeous selection of ever changing fresh fruit juices, with Brazilian staples such as tapioca and a huge selection of fruits, hams and cheeses and crunchy baguette, cakes and eggs.
Lunch and dinner cater for international and Brazilian tastes, with a selection of fish as well as Brazilian specialities such as rice and beans with beef, locally caught ocean and lake fish as well as portions of whitebait and fried calamari. International beers as well as Brazilian and a selection of gins and cocktails. It was quite simply perfect and at £60 a night you simply won't beat this anywhere in the world.
- Simon (8/5): Loved our time at Butterfly House - Butterfly House has a fantastic location on the Marau Peninsula, immediately adjacent to a beautiful beach, deserted when we were there.We watched Humpback whales just offshore during their annual migration in September. The accommodation comprises individual bungalows spread through the lovely gardens. The staff are lovely, but as in most of Brazil, English is not spoken. Altogether a peaceful and beautiful place to stay. Did I mention the whales? It's a long drive up a bumpy dirt peninsula road, but that is not Butterfly's fault, and anyway it's what helps to keep the area pristine.
