Top hotels in Barra
Rede Andrade Barra
O hotel é bem básico, mas é estranho pq a estrutura é boa, mas eles falham em coisas muito simples, como toalhas e roupas de cama machadas e baratas no quarto. Esse hotel se vale totalmente da localização privilegiada, mas precisa urgente de renovação.

Pousada Barra Comfort
A localização é de longe o ponto mais alto. A praia do porto está a uma distância de 50 metros. O pessoal também foi muito educado. O café da manhã, apesar de simples, proprõe tudo que você precisa pra começar bem o dia. Recomendo fortemente.
