This was my first visit, but hopefully not my last. The hotel, grounds, and staff were exceptional. Quite wonderful beyond my expectations. The hotel is a little gem in the middle of a beautiful and historic city. I can't say enough positive things about my experience.
Costeiro is just a 15-minute walk from Olinda historical town, which was named a world heritage by UNESCO. The hotel offers a swimming pool in its courtyard with ocean views.

A quaint old building right in the historic part of Olinda. Walk out, turn left and it's all right there! The room was lovely, the pool, the breakfast. We stayed an extra night. We appreciated the motorbike parking. Oh, and there were monkeys!

Communication was prompt and easy,we booked it just few hours before arrival.Our room was nice and location is perfect.Highly recommend this place!
Located in Olinda, Olinda mar pousada offers beachfront accommodation 2.5 km from Milagres Beach and provides various facilities, such as a garden and a bar.
Olinda is odd in that it is lightly populated.
For instance, there are a phenomenal number of churches in a very small area but (I imagine) way less people than there were historically,
The beach is close by and nice.
It is a stark contrast to Recife so close by.
The minor basilica is worth a visit with it’s gold or nation.

I didn't realize that my dates coincided with what is called the "previa", or preview to Carnaval. So this was an unexpected treat in a way! I don't have the tolerance or stamina for actual Carnaval, but being able to partake in and witness the preliminary street festivals was quite fun. Olinda is lovely and so walkable. I do wish that the signage for the historical markers was restored and improved. For example, the Ribeira Market is a local spot for purchasing souvenirs. It also is significant for being the market where enslaved Black people were sold alongside other "commodities". Given that Brazil has the largest percentage of people of African descent in the Americas whose ancestors were enslaved by the Portuguese, this history should NOT be overlooked, "whitewashed" or hidden. One can enjoy the beauty of a place AND acknowledge the painful legacy of enslavement throughout the Americas. Lastly, don't swim in the beaches here. Raw sewage ends up here and you can see this in the brown water. If you want a beach to swim in, head south to Porto de Galinhas.

Charming historic town.
Charming historic town. By total coincidence I was there on a Sunday night in the lead-up to Carnaval, and a local Carnaval team was practicing. Fun to watch. This evidently happens on Sunday nights for at least several weeks (longer?) leading up to Carnaval.

An incredible little haven of peace and beauty next to a buzzling city of Recife. The beaches right in front of the town are not extraordinary but within 10-15 min drive there are large beaches with little bars etc. Like anywhere in Brazil, litter and especially plastic is a problem.

I was disappointed with Olinda for being a well known tourist city in Brazil. Dirty where the beach is distant and without conditions for swimming and with little tourist attraction. Generally speaking I would not go to Recife / Olinda on vacation. The city is also very dangerous, according to residents.

We were there only one night but we enjoyed the Historic Centre and walking up to the lighthouse. The best part was taking a funicular to the treehouse restaurant! A three minute walk from the Convent.
I had an amazing stay here! The house is gorgeous – it's beautifully decorated and full of character. I loved opening the windows to enjoy the evening breezes (it is winter at the moment!). My room was very comfortable and had good A/C, hot water, and WIFI. Graça was so helpful in organising my stay and suggesting things to do, and Rita made an amazing breakfast every morning. Olinda is a charming and very easygoing place. I can't wait to come back! Obrigada!
I was very impressed with how well maintained this hotel is. I know how hard the salt air and humidity is on buildings, Hotel Costeiro is not fancy but they have taken care to give this hotel character through the local art on the walls and the old time Olinda furniture in the halls. Breakfast was good and they made some of the best tapioca I've had.
This is a very small "pousada" with only 3 well separated rooms. Everything in the room was very good and the environment was quite and relaxing. There are many bars and several good restuarants within a 10 min walking radius. I had no problems walking around late at night and will defintely stay again if I am ever in Olinda... and possibly Recife.
A cozy and small historic 17th century place in the middle of the fabulous colonial centre of Olinda, spectacularly overlooking Recife and the ocean. Decorated with ceramic artwork created by Ramondo, the owner, who is an outstanding artist. Meeting him is a privelege already well worth the travel!
The team at Pousada São Pedro were so incredibly welcoming and accomodating to all my requests, they made sure my stay in Olinda absolutely amazing. I cannot recommend their personable, friendly approach highly enough and the work they go to in creating a unique and welcoming atmosphere!
The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of historic Olinda. It has its own parking lot which is definitely plus. You can enjoy amazing view from the pousada numerous viewing decks. The spot where you can enjoy the beautiful sunset over Recife , is right outside the hotel's door.
Amazing location right in the Alto da Se. Beautiful old historical building which makes you feel like you are really staying in an old convent. There are helpful staff on reception and the breakfast is great. Would definitely recommend.
The quiet and tranquil ambiance with so many trees. The proximity to the heart of Olinda. Everything within walking distance. The rooms stay dark and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing. we ordered dinner in the evening - also very good!
Very friendly family-run ladeira in the center of Olinda. The location is beautiful, close to all the center sights. I really enjoyed chilling at the pool and the quiet atmosphere. The breakfast was also very yummy!
Perfect location in the old town of Olinda. Everything in walking distance!
Everything was very clean!
Communication was amazing and the hostess gave us a lot of good tips :)
Definitely recommend!
