This was our fourth visit to the Pousada Tartaruga. We enjoyed it just as much as we always have, in the past.
The ambience is just homely and really cozy,
The staff is super duper friendly, helpful and accommodating. The rooms and beds are comfortable, air conditioning is first class, Breakfast is rerally nice.
This was our first stay, in a room closest to the main street. That meant we had a bit of noice from the street. We managed to sleep well anyway(possibly with a bit of assistance from the Cachaça loaded caprinhas).
In spite of that, we'll come back again and again, as we consider Tartaruga our ''Pipa home''.

The hotel is perfectly located on the main street, it is very well taken care of and the staff is super nice and welcoming, a reflection of the owner and how he treats everyone there - amazing! Beds were great, good space in the rooms, good shower, amazing breakfast - everything homemade. Relaxing atmosphere. I would go back there and recommend to everyone!

This was the seventh time we returned to Pousada Tartaruga.
This establishment has become our home away from home!
It’s a small oasis more or less, smack in Pipa city center. Yet the life is surprisingly calm and free of noise.
Staff and Breakfast are super nice and so incredibly helpful.
It’s clean, well appointed and cozy.

Pousada simplesmente maravilhosa em todos os aspectos.
Quarto com limpeza impecável, bem decorado, confortável, amenidades loccitane.
O café da manhã com certeza é um dos pontos altos da acomodação, com bolos frescos feitos na pousada, frutas variadas, compotas, pães, ovos e tapiocas feitos na hora, além de que tinha até água de coco. Eles oferecem deliciosos bolos frescos a tarde para os hospedes, nos sentimos muito acolhidas.
A localização é perfeita, próxima a tudo em Pipa e muito segura.
A gentileza dos funcionários é algo raro de se ver. Destaco a prestatividade da Carla, Charo e do moço que cuida da pousada a noite, que foi muito gentil em ajudar uma de minhas amigas que estava com dor de estômago. Mas o meu agradecimento se estende a todos os demais funcionarios que fizeram a experiencia em Pipa ainda mais agradável.
Eu sou muito crítica para hotel e recomendo de olhos fechados essa linda e aconchegante pousada.

Tive uma experiência excelente na pousada! A localização é muito boa, facilitando bastante a estadia. A equipe foi um dos grandes destaques: todos muito atenciosos, educados e sempre dispostos a ajudar.
A flexibilidade com os horários de check-in e check-out fez toda a diferença e trouxe ainda mais comodidade. O café da manhã é completo, variado e delicioso, com tudo muito bem preparado.
O quarto é extremamente confortável, com uma cama ótima, e os amenities da L’Occitane dão um toque especial à experiência.
Com certeza voltaria e recomendo!

Todo en esta posada es excepcional. Las habitaciones son grandes y comfortables. Está muy bien ubicada. La zona es céntrica pero tranquila. El desayuno bien completo y variado. El personal super amable y atentos, especialmente Johana, Romi y Charo de recepción, siempre dispuestas a resolver todo con una sonrisa. A la tarde volvés de la playa y tenés café o té de cortesía con budines caseros y facturas. Pasamos 16 noches maravillosas. Volveríamos sin dudarlo.

Quarto lindo, pousada incrível, boa localização, café da manhã muito bom. Único inconveniente: o site cobra apenas 50% de forma antecipada e no checkout você paga os outros 50%. O problema é que quando reservamos com antecedência sequer nos lembramos desse detalhe e temos uma surpresinha ao fazer o checkout.
