My boyfriend and I stayed at Pousada Encanto de Itapoan over the carnival period and it was amazing!!! I don't know where to start, I am very picky about everything, Pousada Encanto ticked every box and more and I simply cannot wait to return. Before we had even arrived, Octa (the owner) was so warm friendly and helpful and always... More

The room was very small compared to the other places we stayed in, especially given the price and location. Didn't really think it was value for money but it's a good place for people who just want a place to sleep. On a good note, Daniel who worked at the pousada was very friendly and helpful. The location was OK...... More

Spent 5 days at the pousada in April 2012 with family of 8 people. Extremely friendly, very serviceminded staff. Very comfortable if you want to see beaches north of Salvador but don't want to go to Praia da Forte, which is waste of time. Quiet neighbourhood and chance to mingle the locals.

The pousada is very well located, distance to the beach is less than 100 metres, as well there is a pool in the posada's garden. The pousada is not in the center of Itapoan, so it is a quiet place, close to the airport (15 minutes by taxi, which cost around 30,- R$) The rooms are cosy and clean, the... More

We have been visiting Bahia for several years now. Encanto de Itapoan has proven to be the perfect place. The staff is always polite, helpful, and has the information we need for our treks around the area. The owners, Octacilio and Janet, are caring, friendly, and genuine (they even saved my life when my appendix burst). We enjoy our restful... More
