Also after 3. vacation in Porto Zarpa we are relaxed and plan the next trip in this paradise.
One must Brazil and the brazilian love and may not
All-inclusive vacation in a global urlaubsfabriken expect.
Here wonht between local tourists in a small hotel (approximately 40 rooms). It lies in a ' condomina', a gated residential area in the middle of tropical garden.
To the beach one runs 200 metres under palm trees. At high tide you can swim quite well, with beach shoes it was better.
Gezeitenkalender you will find on the internet, or ask
At the front desk. ... At low tide, you could simply take a roll in the sea and watched tropical fish.
A piece of left at the beach along the port, where you can swim. There is always something going on. At the weekend experienced one Brazil live. Also approximately 300 meters law is a bay with enough water for swimming. With a bit of luck the fishermen hauling in their nets watch.
Before breakfast is a dip in the hotel pool is the ideal start to the day. It's not necessary a liege to reserve. There are at any time discontd.
Café da manha (breakfast) was great and plentiful. Typical bahianisch with kokus, bananas, many fruits and juices, of which we in Europa never heard; costs is worthwhile always. There is of course also bread, rolls, eggs, sausage, cakes and much more. Sometimes the small makakenäffchen and would a bit abhaben.
In praia do forte there are a lot of to see.
A few steps away from the hotel is the
' Shopping '.
The caipoera dancers show on the weekends here as they can.
There is many good restaurants, from bahianischer kitchen has italian pizzeria to the sushi-bar there is something for everyone.
A little cheaper you eat in the side streets.
Active protection of species, the projeto tamar, a turtle nursery at the port holdings. A worth a visit in any case. A further project is the 'instituto baleira jubarte', a walforschungszentrum.
Nor a couple words about the hotel.
It is always very clean, the towels are changed on a daily basis. Pool towels were available at the front desk free of charge.
Room, bathroom and balcony have tiled floors. On the balcony relaxed one wonderful in the hammock.
Every room has an airco, a fridge,
Tv with german channels, a free small safe the internet access is free of charge.
The german plugs fit usually not, it is an adapter.
With macros, the hotel manager, you could well communicate in english. The staff speaks mostly portuguese, a small dictionary helps here. All employees are friendly and tried very for the guests;
The international sign language everyone understands. read more

The hotel is ideally located in a quiet area. Evenings there was total peace. To the beach it is a couple of minutes through a baby terrain. The staff including chef is very friendly, you can relax among friends feel. The guests are predominantly brazilian, some nice german guests were present. Here you can go out in the evening, the village is intimate and you feel sure. From the restaurants, you will always have a view to the full life on the beautiful boardwalk, so that the waiting for the food not get bored. The breakfast in buffet form is ... rich with fresh tropical juices, homemade sweet and savory delicacies. The cuisine is good and inexpensive, especially crab and fish dishes tasted fresh and delicious.
For a fun beach holiday, we Porto Zarpa highly recommended, we were just a week there. But should we go back to bahia come, we are certainly two weeks.
Tip: a super tour in many angles from Salvador we experienced with the german travel guide Edgar. read more

We are germans and work in the behemoth são Paulo. Vacation we have 2000 kilometer further north in the north-east. Of the previously visited pousadas in the states ceara, pernambuco, alagoas and bahia is the zarpa hotel the crowning. It is also of äroporto Salvador easy to get to. We will continue our holidays only spend here. The hotel offers all the conditions for a wonderful holiday. Short well-kept way to the beach, short walk to the village centre. Recreational facilities you will need, there is no boredom. If you don't in the sun his condition to improve wants, can ... use the gym and ventilatorgekühlt one hour cycling. Not to forget the subsequent coconut at the kiosk on the village square. The chilled coconut milk tasted refreshing and is also a panacea against all complaints with the stomach. Also run in the evening on a fine sand is possible. The cuisine is very good, everything tasted.
For our in Brazil working compatriots and naturally for all in the home the hotel is a special recommendation. Nice web page in portuguese and in german. read more

The high season in praia do forte was the blazing live in this unique vacation destination. Restaurants al fresco dining, some with live music, always offered the view of the hustle and bustle in the beautifully equipped pedestrian precinct. The wait on the food was therefore variety and pleasant moments. From the hotel you can get there in about three minutes through a narrow alley, where the locals like to defer the food to. Friday and saturday means queue before the souza fell back bar, a ticket to catch. From 22 o'clock is original brazilian hot music from. You to ... dance rapturous, which one in Europa with the discopampe and ohrentötenden sound not any more imagine.
The hotel was fully booked, almost only brazilian from the south of the country. Also families with right good children were to see. Nevertheless was always a place on a sunbed or a table under a palm tree free, because the guests long at the beach stay. There is about two hundred meters over a with plates occupied sand path. The whole private Areal accomodates still some private villas. It stops a friendly porter for their inhabitants and the hotel guests the door to the beach on. Directly at the beach in front of the hotel there is a little rocky underground, at low tide invites large wasserdurchspülte sand quarries are free. It you could spend hours stay, provided that the factor of sonnenöls is true.
Swim a bit further at the port for the fishing boats, especially in the early morning you can enjoy the lonely beach and sunset is under cheerful locals in the water.
South is a great enormous bay, where you at low tide and high tide safely swim. A few hundred meters further outside protects a reef the beach before the crushers of the atlantic ocean from.
The hotel has a completely own style, you feel to really short time 'as happy as a pig in muck'. No crowd, short distances to the rooms, beautiful balcony for relaxing. Wi-fi worked almost always, music shop a bit slow, but for which purpose do you need the also.
In the reviews raised foreign languages skills we wisely skipped. This is a really brazilian hotel, which is what we were looking for. The staff need for the few europeans no english. Nevertheless we could us with the receptionist ms really good communicate in english. A large part of the brazilian guests spoke to our amazement tidy english-this is because, because the layer, which a vacation in bahia with flight can afford, not the poorest and english in the high school learned.
Best competence, the house technician magno with a special problem. The german laptops have a plug with schutzkontakt, the didn't fit in my adapter. Magno rummaged a rare adapter from his chest and sawed simply a piece of from. Fourteen days laptopbenutzung without any problems were i a decent tip worth \u263a
The hotel has the german guide Edgar, which informative tours makes. He lives a long time in Salvador and knows the town like the palm of his hand. A day with him in the town or to the surrounding area is an experience - and money it is well worth it.
We will be happy to stay in the Porto zarpa hotel %blank%. Very relaxing, price and performance is ok!
Tip: the early morning for the flight book, only condor and tap (on Lissabon) options to Salvador. Therefore are the machines always full. The hotel booking we have german home page of the hotel transacted. The german contact person knows very well. read more

Christmas in zarpa -reflection in nature

We wanted from the german vorweihnachtshektik out and holidays in Brazil dared. We are already two weeks in the Porto zarpa hotel and thank to some extent the holiday check ratings for the good tip. Here we spend a nice relaxing holiday in a hotel with their own touch. Instead of evening in fog and rain on the christmas market to go, a mulled wine to drink and the same article in the markständen to look at, the choir or even a rock band in nikolausmützen under the umbrella to listen to, there is a real alternative. One walks shortly ... before sunset, so against six hours, through the sand to the small harbor, enjoy the view on the diagonally from the sun lit fishing boats. Then one moves half an hour in the 28 °-water, looks the bustle of children and of the lovers couples in the water and experience the sun set across rome's goldrot bright sky. In the dark you walked back, always with a light breeze from the ocean.
In the hotel was in these two weeks average operation, because the season at the weekend before new year's eve begins. The christmas eve was far from an incorrect Pathos, we dined with other guests in the hotel at beautifully decorated tables. Part of the guests went into the village to eat. The family of hoteliers had a own festive decorated table and a table for the gifts. There only the boss with family and friends and the german hotel manager, which we at this point for the many tips and above all for the good price thanks.
Over the hotel was already enough good written-we have nothing to add. The village is unique with one for a tourist resort really extraordinary atmosphere.
Unfortunately, we have on sunday back home. The whole hypocritical weihnachtszirkus and the already for weeks from the loudspeakers of the shops tönenden'oh christmas tree' in the was played nonstop once want to escape, finds the real christmas of reflection and mutual respect. Comes naturally a beach holiday in a beautiful nature with lot of tropical sun in addition! read more

Definitely recommendable are the offered tours with Edgar, the german guide, with its extremely nice, open and knowing kind of a 'must' is. In comparison to other guides, i would in any case Edgar prefer. For me its excursions to exceed.

The first time we spend our vacation not in a large hotel, because the mostly secluded from interesting local environment-which in Turkey or Tunisia don't mind. With 32 rooms the hotel is a dwarf against the 600-room-monster of the hotel chains. Therefore pleased at a short distance, no crowds for breakfast, no reservierungsprobleme with chairs. In the lovely flowered garden peace and a small swimming pool, relaxation and in the dark, romantic atmosphere. read more

The Porto zarpa hotel is ideal for a beach vacation at beautiful beaches and in a unique vacation village adequate. The beaches on the atlantic ocean nature relaxation with white sand and coconut trees. There is no drab rows of sun loungers, you will find beach sections with only a few visitors. The banks offers good for swimming appropriate bodies and parts with middle surf. In any case everything wonderful for long beach stay.
The former fishing village of praia do forte has despite touristic opening a special attraction, because you in the middle among the local moves and everything ... from an environmental point of view has been developed.
The hotel prices are very good, provided you bay in Germany on the website in advance. You will get the same good and accurate information for bahia and other destinations in Brazil.
We enjoyed the visit to the capital brasilia and the iguazu -water falls and in Rio helped. read more

Tips: we booked in Germany on the web page. We found nowhere better price and were before ... very good advice. Two tagesbesuche of Salvador are a must! This is a really beautiful and interesting city.

In praia do forte we met a really beautiful corner of Brazil know. The hotel isn't big, what a huge advantage in relation to short ways and peace has. Everything is clean and tidy, the staff very friendly. The waiters are sometimes with the service in the garden a bit slow. But obviously not pushy appear, if you have book under a palm tree is. But one with nice decorated caipis compensated-) from the hotel garden leads a privatweg the villa owners don't at the beach, mornings before breakfast a benefit, barefoot to go there and a bathroom to ... take. At noon the badeleben under guests and locals in the bay on small port from. There it is never boring. We were never from obtrusive vendors hassled-a new experience for repeated visitors of tunisian and moroccan hotels. Everywhere we felt very safe. The hotel prices are in the comparison with similar pousadas very good, however one should not before place, but already in Germany advance. Praia do forte is for a longer vacation a hot tip-even without touristic hustle in a tourist place the other type enjoy. There are direct flights from Frankfurt to Salvador. From there it was only 50 kilometer with the shuttle service. read more

Vacation much nicer than in large all inclusive-hotels in the world. No riesenspeisesaal, no riesenhalle for front desk and no waiting. Stars can be more than three. Distances from room to breakfast and garden very short. Restaurant makes good breakfast and food tastes very good. No animation - always peace in garden and at the pool. Fast way center of the village. There lots of restaurants and shops.
Room big and balcony with hammocks and beautiful view of garden. In the morning, before sunrise beautiful view of sky. At night completely quiet with warm wind on the balcony. No bugs! ...
Staff very pleasant, everything from area. Friendly guests much Brazil, some German, argentine and Austria.
Price was really good for offered - hotel has also direct with niederste prices. Comparisons worth it.
Excursions makes real German travel guide from Salvador. He knows the city and environment very good. Saves you money, because he in the hotel directly pick you up at no charge.

The hotel was until independence day only means occupied, on this weekend it was a meeting the Brazilian restaurant with have fun. We met only two German couple on, so don't be afraid of overpopulation from Europa.
A lot of time we spend the beautiful beach, in three minutes on a privatweg reachable is. Beautiful Badeplätze there is in the bay in the Tivoli Resort, outstanding suitable for swimming. The ... beach is public and like in Brazil usual tax free.
In the hotel garden we always found a free beach chair, no morning Reserve with towel necessary. The hotel's own not public restaurant offers a right reasonably priced kitchen with good tasting dishes. Fine and varied was also the breakfast - especially to praise the freshly squeezed fruit juices.
In town there were some good restaurants and a café with a finest cakes.
The hotel service was good, from when booking with also for Brasilienkenner useful tips,
Punctual airport transfer and the great Zimmerwartung with daily Linen.
Some Brazilian families with quiet children felt in the hotel visibly comfortable.
The German tour guide Edgar from Salvador offers under other a beautiful trip to the hinterland from Salvador. We were in the morning in the hotel collected and spent with him a busy day.

After a round trip with many impressions relaxed we were in the Porto zarpa hotel from the flight- and wartezeitenstress. It was really relaxing and we enjoyed the ambience. The village was in the low season relatively quiet, the hotel was also only half full. In the beautiful hotel garden there are sunny and shady spot, the pool is not for langstreckenschwimmer, but to a bathroom between reading and a caipirinha, it's excellent.
Everything in this hotel is well maintained and spacious. Very good breakfast is to be pointed out.
The beach on the atlantic ocean is totally natural and ... invites for long hikes through the sand.
We booked directly over the web page, price were very good for the offered - the toscana is for example much more expensive. The transfer after midnight from the airport to the hotel folded smoothly.
