About Pousada Arte do Urquijo

Close Panel

This quirky pousada has a nice location close to the quay (and alongside a Thai restaurant!). There are 6 ensuite rooms, with 3 standards and 3 themed rooms, including a Japanese room. Three of the rooms face over the bay, and 3 over the town. All rooms have air conditioning, safety deposit box, TV (Brazilian channels only) and queen or king size beds. There is a minibar in the hall outside the rooms. Two of the standard rooms have balconies with either a hammock or chair. The stairs are quite steep leading to the rooms. The rooms are comfortable but compact and a couple have quite low, sloping roofs. The pousada has a bar/lounge, breakfast room and yoga deck. No outside footwear is permitted inside the pousada, but slippers are available at the front door.

Pricing guidelines for Brazil

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £700 to £900 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Brazil combines with Peru, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands due to scheduled flights, so, for example, it makes a good beach stop after Peru or Ecuador.

For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.
