Lovely beach

Clean and safe and in a great location right on the beach. Beautiful walks are possible along a long and sandy beach. Swimming is a bit challenging due to the rocks. But you can go out at low tide. Short walk to the village nearby. Breakfast was fine. Rooms were clean and comfortable.

Belo jardim de frente para a praia

Ficamos no quarto 102, com uma varandinha de frente para o jardim e praia. A cama era king size muito confortável, o ar-condicionado de 12.000 btus era perfeito para o tamanho da acomodação e o banheiro muito espaçoso e com ótima ducha. A estrutura é antiga mas está bem conservada. Minha ressalva fica para o isolamento acústico. Escutamos muito o caminhar do hóspede de cima às 06:00h, que não era nada delicado. Na segunda noite eram outros hóspedes mas o barulho era o mesmo, começando às 07:00h. Como fomos durante a semana em baixa temporada e estacionar na porta do hotel. A praia tem muito coral… precisa ficar atento à maré

Excelente opción, de lo mejor de Praia

El lugar es espectacular, la atencion, excelente. Desayuno inmejorable y la comida de la posada no solo es muy buena sino que ademas tiene buen precio. El alojamiento está impecable, no hay una persona que no te atienda bien. Usé la habitacion de 1er piso, tienen hamaca paraguaya en el balcón y vista al mar que es una maravilla. Sin dudas, para volver. Consejo para casi todo Praia do Forte: llevar calzado para el mar, hay mucha piedra pero con ese calzado estás perfecto.

Pousada muito bem localizada e ótimos funcionários

Foram dias maravilhosos na Pousada Porto da Lua. O serviço é ótimo e a comida também. Quartos limpos e aconchegantes com vista para o mar. Só senti falta mesmo de uma piscininha de água doce, mas passava boa parte do dia nas piscinas naturais bem na frente do hotel. Se está na dúvida só vá, pois vc não irá se arrepender.

Estadia muito agradável

Passamos alguns dias muito agradáveis e confortáveis na pousada. Aproveitamos muito a praia, principalmente nos períodos de maré baixa, quando forma piscinas naturais em frente ao hotel e também nas praias próximas. Fundamental levar sapatilhas para passar pelas pedras com segurança. Vimos vários tombos. A pousada nos proporcionou conforto e facilidade para usufruirmos da praia em frente, alternando entre praia, espreguiçadeiras do hotel, restaurante/bar do hotel. Acesso fácil ao centro da Praia do Forte, onde se encontra o comércio e diversos restaurantes e bares. Quarto simples mas confortável, adequado para o tipo de hospedagem na praia. Equipe do hotel muito eficiente e atenciosa, auxiliando a tornar a estadia mais agradável. Deixamos o carro estacionado em uma vaga em frente ao hotel, dentro do condomínio onde se localiza. Através de QR Code recebido do hotel, pudemos entrar e sair do condomínio para circularmos entre o hotel e o centro da cidade. Com uma curta caminhada pela areia da praia, na maré baixa, é possível chegar ao centro da cidade e ao Projeto Tamar.
