Pousada Vistacalma

The place has an incredible energy, and time seems to move calmly, just as the name suggests. Bungalow Vermelho was top of the range, and everything matched the room’s color. The bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and equipment, cleanliness, and barbecue area were all perfect. The shower pressure deserves a special mention. Marysol, Gaston, and Benja, thank you so much for hosting us. We had an amazing time! The inn is quiet and very family-friendly, within walking distance of both the town center and the beach. If you’re coming to Rosa, don’t miss it. We’re truly grateful and will definitely be back!

Marysol gave us such a warm welcome. The accommodation was comfortable and very clean, and the location right in the town center is perfect. We loved our stay and will certainly return.

The setting is lovely and peaceful at night, with nice scenery, comfortable beds, and good service. The inn is very clean, which matters a lot to me, and it’s a 10-minute walk to the town center for an evening out. The beach is a long walk, though, and not manageable on foot for an older person. Parking costs an excessive $50, or you have to arrive very early and get lucky with one of the few spaces. Keep the distance to the beach in mind. We had an upstairs apartment. In the lower ones, privacy may be an issue because all the doors face the entrance and people passing through. There’s almost everything you need to cook, but we missed having a ladle for beans. For longer stays, it would also help if napkins were changed along with the towels. Housekeeping only comes for half a day, sometimes in the morning and sometimes afternoon, so they may arrive while you’re in the apartment. Then you either leave so they can clean or go without cleaning that day. The shower is good, but every day we had trouble getting water to come through. We noticed the inn can’t handle more than one room showering at once. When the neighboring apartment was using its shower, ours had no water. That’s uncomfortable when you come back with a child covered in beach sand and need to wash them before the apartment gets dirty. The air conditioning units urgently need attention, too. They’re so noisy they make it hard to sleep.

The fridge was already stocked with complimentary beer, water, and chocolate when we arrived, such a nice touch after the drive. The apartment was spotless and smelled lovely, even the bathroom, and the shower worked really well. I was surprised to find a properly sharp knife in a beach rental, so I didn't need my own. The bedroom had no musty or old furniture smell, the pillows and sheets were fresh, and the air conditioning was going strong. Sr. Massa and Sra Marisol were so friendly and welcoming, and Benjamin was a sweetheart who became good friends with my son. We stayed almost three days and had a great time. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you, family!
