Very nice place, nice location, very friendly and helpful staff (but some are hard to communicate with in portuguese). Safe to move around in the area, even at night. Breakfast was the best of all the pousadas we did in Brasil, missed it all through the rest of the trip.... One point that could be better, bathroom in the room... More

We came to Salvador to visit a friend, and booked several rooms at Papaya Verde upon his suggestion - we're so thankful that he discovered this little slice of paradise! Quaint little B&B with charming colors and decorations. The rooms are small, bathrooms even smaller... but who needs much time in the room when there's so much to see &... More

We arrived late on a wet night to be met by a warm welcome. This pousada is a friendly unpretentious place in Barra neighbourhood. Breakfast is legendary and with reason as the cook outdoes everyone else with lots of freshly baked cakes and wonderful fresh fruit. Good coffee and a selection of teas as well as cheeses and ham are... More

The rooms are simple, but very clean and comfortable, the breakfast is really good and the staff is very courteous and helpful. I recommend this pousada to anyone that is looking for a good... More

This place is a gem. Nestled in a great spot a little street just near the ocean in the bohemian Barra district, this place is also great spot in and of itself. First of all it's adorably done with comfortable beds, clean rooms, nice little baths, (even good views from the upper rooms) and a lovely courtyard with great landscaping... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Pousada Papaya Verde. The Pousada is located in a quite side street, only 5 min walking from the beach. Already from outside you will note how much detail and care the owners put into the Pousada: it is surrounded by a wonderful garden with palm trees and beautiful flowers. It makes you feels... More
