Simone est une hôtesse très chaleureuse. Petits déjeuners copieux, plat unique le soir. Praia Branca est un site superbe qui permet de magnifiques randonnées. ##### Bruno Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Stefan Mar 22, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Die Farinha de Pau ist nicht mit anderen Unterkünften vergleichbar. Es ist ein Eco-Project, und genau das wurde vor Ort umgesetzt. Für die Häuser und die Einrichtungen wurden bereits vorhandene Materialien genutzt, z.B. Paletten als Untergestell der Betten mit guten Matratzen oder die Nutzung des örtlichen Lehms für die Wände. Die Unterkunft ist einfach, und angenehm sauber. Die herzliche Gästebetreuung durch Sergio und Simone und die Verpflegung zu Frühstück und Abendessen durch Simones Kochkünste sind erstklassig. Stefan und Stefan sagen "obrigádu"! ##### Stefan Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Antonius Oct 18, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities ##### Antonius Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Marc Sep 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sergio es súper amable y nos ha ayudado mucho para recorrer la isla.
