Dandara was an amazing host. She and her family were so welcoming and went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable. The house is perfectly located for tourists who prefer a more authentic experience, the neighbourhood is safe but not touristy, the community is tight-knit and historically bohemian, with great bars and live Brazilain music, the beaches are quiet and typically stunning. It's a 20 second walk from a bus stop. Plus the house has a view of the sea on two sides and one of the patios has a hammock over looking straight onto Ondas beach. Good breakfast provided and a very friendly cat and dog to keep you company. Met lots of new people in the city through her and learnt so much about the city from her too! Can't recommend this place enough!!
