we had a lovely stay in the beautiful, peaceful pousada: the bungalows were very large, the food was delicious, accessing the pousada by boat was unexpected and lovely, and above all, the hosts were outstanding, they arranged a lot of things for us (considering we had been assaulted on our way there from sao luis), and made our stay perfect...

The pousada is really as nice as people say here. So just to add an information I missed: You can reach the center of Barreirinhas within a 15 minutes walk. You walk 10 minutes a sandy road, then cross the river (using a small boat - not the big one for cars - which goes all night through, at least... More

We went to Barreirinhas very aware of the limitations a kid of 3 years old would have in terms of enduring the alternatives through out the National Park over there. Considering the average of resources the region could offer, The Cantinho´s proved to be an oasis in a bigger oasic landscape of the Lençóis even without the waters we knew... More

We've spent only 1 day and 1/2, in barerhinas.  We didnt booked activities but we read on trip advisor that Michael could help us à lot for that. Indeed, thanks to him, while we arrived at 7 pm on the  evening, he booked a quad ride for us in small lencois desert for tomorrow morning and a Private tour in... More

We had an excellent stay at this pousada. Given that it is located on the other side of the river from the main town, we were greeted by Michael after our arrival by bus and whisked off on a small speedboat journey to our destination - a great introduction! Michael was very helpful in arranging our trips (both in the... More

Just confirming everything that was said previously...the place is beautiful, relaxing; the rooms are very charming and the food Josiane cooks is (almost) the best in Maranhao...it was a great pleasure to stay there.

This is the best place if you visit the Lencois sand dunes. The location is scenic and relaxing by the riverside. The rooms have air conditioning and are spacious. Try the fish accompanied with fried beans and rice. The hosts are fantastic, they organised our trip to the sand dunes and our transfer from/to Sao Luiz. Would recommend highly for... More

We chose to stay here for three nights, based on reviews we read on Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed. Everything was beyond our expectations. Michael picked us up as arranged, and we arrived at the B & B in time for a delicious lunch cooked by Josiane. This was the first of many excellent meals. Our spacious chalet was... More

Many good things have been said about this excellent pousada in Barreirinhas, and they are all true. We had just one night there (late booking and full for the other nights) It is about 10 minutes by boat from the main town. We had an excellent lunch and a small dinner at reasonable prices and the chalets are spacious and... More
