After travelling around Brasil, we finished our journey by a 3 nights stay in the Mar Brasil in Itapua which was a bit disappointing. The hotel is clean and has all the amenities you would expect but it is far away from any place of interest around Salvador. Itapua, although a very popular beach resort is also a bit dodgy... More

Location: The hotel is located near the airport in place called Itapua. It is far away from the city centre, and the historical places,about 1 hour by car and 1,30 by bus. The beach is across the road from the hotel. The beach is very nice but restaurants and shop are at least 10 minutes by bus. The hotel is... More

Good Hotel in Salvador, good place and good stuff , good location, relaxation and very good Hotel ,Good Hotel in Salvador, good place and good stuff , good location, relaxation and very good Hotel, i was in Salvador about 5-9 Aug 2012 for conference ,

I went there with my parents in Sep/2012. From the reviews and since it was an award winner I was expecting much more. The rooms are clean and big but they seem to be a little bit old.

We stayed here for a week or so a few years back. We had three rooms (myself, wife and then toddler son, parents in law and brother-in law and wife). Actually our ground floor room was more like an apartment. We arrived in Salvador and stayed our first night in a dive of a place just around the corner which... More

We stayed here on our way from Salvador to the airport. They allowed us to checkin early and we had a nice day at the beach and the pool. The rooms were fair but very clean and the restaurant was fine. The only issue we had was that we were charged for an executive room with ocean views - I... More

Liked: Location for airport: good, just 15 min. by taxi so great for the night before an early flight. Location for beach: good, just across the road from Itapua beach - a very pretty beach, good for surfing though can be dangerous for swimming. Rooms spacious and comfortable and good breakfast. Location for meals: a couple of nice local restaurants... More

We had been quite careful of what we ate while we traveled but wanted to try palm hearts. I ended up in hospital from mishandled food in their restaurant...not what I expected. Thought you could probably trust a hotel...be careful Otherwise Renata at the front desk was very helpful and gave us a tour of the compound (gated) including the... More

My partner and I stayed at Mar Brasil for 10nights. It was supposed to be 9 but due to a flight change we needed to stay an extra night, They easily made these changes for us with no problems, even got to stay in the same room. The 5 star service of the staff was fantastic, they all really went... More
