Pousada Recanto dos Pássaros

A really good and affordable place to stay in Bonito. The rooms are large, and the breakfast is fit for a king. I recommend it.

This was my worst experience at an inn. It’s embarrassing for Bonito to have a place like this. The owner, Leonardo, seemed focused only on getting paid. He collected the full room charge as soon as we arrived, then we only saw him now and then. There was never anyone at reception, so we had to contact him on WhatsApp. On the second day, we got back from an outing to find that our room hadn't been serviced and the shower had burned out. The exposed wires were covered with electrical tape. We had to ask him on WhatsApp to let us use another room just to shower. That bathroom was disgusting and smelled bad, and although the water was hot, the shower made such a loud noise it seemed like it might explode. The next day we again had to ask for a key to another room to bathe. Breakfast was poor: stale, hard bread, bad cake, and juice that tasted like sugary flavored water with no real flavor. There weren't enough people to restock things, so guests had to ask. The scrambled eggs were watery, and there was no butter, only very poor-quality margarine. The place was badly cleaned and unhygienic. The pool had so much sludge that we couldn't use it, and the pond was dirty. Nothing matched the photos posted on Google and the Booking app. There was no toilet paper, so we had to message Leonardo, who would send only one roll at a time. The pool could have been an attraction, but it wasn't usable at all. The TV had only four channels, the soap felt greasy, the bed was uncomfortable, and the pillows seemed like old rags stuffed into pillowcases. There was a spider in the bathroom too. Overall, it was filthy, and the owner showed a complete lack of care, while failing to provide even the basics despite charging for the stay. What an embarrassment for Bonito.

The mattress and bed bothered me most. The room is basic, the air conditioner struggles to cool it, and the TV gets only two channels. There's an empty minibar, and the electric shower is okay. Breakfast was simple but very good. I've stayed at inns with better value for money. The facilities are run-down and need renovation, and there was a squeegee in the pool.

I had the worst experience I've ever had at an inn. The conditions were awful, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The owner, Leonardo, was rarely around, and the only way to reach him was WhatsApp because reception was usually empty. The pool was dirty and unusable, the grounds were dirty, and the pond was full of rubbish. The bathroom was grimy and stank, with spiders in it. The shower had weak water pressure and a terrible installation, with loose exposed wires. Our room's shower burned out on the second day, and the owner didn't offer to move us. We had to ask to use another room's shower, which also had low pressure and made a noise like it might explode. That bathroom smelled too. The room was uncomfortable, the pillows were bad, and the TV had poor picture quality and no channels. Breakfast was awful: hard, stale bread and cakes, the same food every day, including leftovers from the day before. The margarine was poor quality, there was no butter, and guests had to request refills because the one person working there couldn't manage everything alone.
