The Pousada Arandu is located very close to the beach and a reasonable distance from the center of the village of Porto de Galinhas. In a quiet neighborhood with no cars moving.
It has parking. And a great pool with a small bar near the pool. Has an excellent and helpful staff, everyone is always ready to help. The rooms are a good size with good bathrooms. The breakfast is good. It has cable tv and wifi.

A great place to relax

I absolutely love this place, every time I visit Pernambuco, I make a trip there. 
The staff is extremely nice, make us feel like home. It's so relaxing at the pool, or you can just step out of the hotel and be at the beach!! Close to the city center (Porto de Galinhas), also like 5 minutes on a cab. 

Relaxing time!!!

We had a very good experience at Arandu Pousada. It is affordable, clean, and the staff are very friendly. It is well located (but not right on the beach - about 20 meters away). It was quiet, and the morning breakfast was delicious. There is a small pool which the kids enjoyed at the end of the day. Drinks at the bar are very affordable. The AC worked well, and the water temperature was hot. For couples who really like a big double bed (more like Queen size), it might be better to put two singles together. 

The beach in front of the hotel is very nice, and the water super clear. 

It is about a 15 minute walk along the beach to the village center which has many good restaurants to choose from. 

All in all we were very pleased with our stay and will return.

Friendly, clean, and welcoming hotel

I travelled to Porto de Galinhas last March. Among all the hotels and pousadas I found on internet, I selected Arandu Pousada hesitating about my decision because I couldn't find any information or comments on line other than their appealing pics on their website. [--]
When I arrived to Recife, I meet the driver that the Pousada send to pick me up. As soon as I passed the main door, I realized the place was exactly as it was shown on their site! Even the front desk guy was there! 
I booked a single room that was spacious, comfortable with a double bed on the 3th floor and had an awesome sea view. The bathroom was also good. The pool looked clean but I never used it because I rather spend my time at the beach. Breakfast (included) was small but good, with fruits, yogurt, milk, coffee, breads and eggs or tapioca upon request (not  hotcakes or cereals). The hotel's staff was pleasant all the time, smiling people, very caring and helpful! Internet access is free, there aren’t phones in the rooms but you can use the one at the reception. 
The path to the beach had palms on both sides that make the short walk even more special. The beach was wide, clean, the water was always warm.  The village was just to a 10 minutes walking along the beach, it was pretty safe to walk even in the nights but if you are too tired you can take a 3 minutes cab ride. 
It was a great stay for a worthy rate and I definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quiet, pleasant and cheap place to stay at Porto de Galinhas.

A gem!

Arandu is a 10 minutes footwalk from the center of the small town of Porto de Galinhas and a 50 meters footwalk from the beach. The location is perfect as the village center is quite busy and noisy. Arandu is, however, quiet and relaxing. Furthermore, the accomodations in the village center do not look very inviting, with few exceptions, compared with Pousada Arandu.

The Pousada has some 15 rooms and the ambient is nearly family-like. You will find the owners at the reception during the day and they will chat with you and give you any information needed. If they can't help you, they will do a short phone call and ask somebody who can give the information you request.

The rooms are spacy and clean and the aircondition is silent (in contrast to most other places in Brasil where I have been). The rooms are cleaned daily.

The breakfast buffet is nice and the choice is good although not as vast as in big hotels. If you ask, you are able to receive many additional dishes for breakfast like freshly made scrambled eggs (not like in other places, where the egg might be kept warm during hours) and national dishes like tapioca.

The pousada does not have a restaurant but you can get warm snacks during the whole day. There is also a bar. Snacks and drinks are very priceworthy, even the beers you take out of the minibar/fridge in your room. Most restaurants are located in the town center of Porto de Galinhas. A dance club can be found some 5 minutes from the pousada.

The pool is small and clean. It is, however, closed during the night for cleaning. They do chemical tests regularly to check the quality of the water.

Internet is available on a computer at the reception and is free.

Porto de Galinhas is a nice place as it has a reef and natural pools very close to the beach. These things can be enjoyed best during low tide. A schedule regarding the high and low tide is available at Arandu. Furthermore several trips such as buggy trips and trips to nearby beaches are available in Porto de Galinhas. Porto de Galinhas is about 1 hour from Recife. There are, however, only the local busses (stopping everywhere) and taxis (expensive) to get there. Something like a minivan or express bus does not exist. So calculate either enough time or enough money for a trip to Recife, if you want to go there.

The prices for the rooms are good. They were among the lowest during the carneval period and still, the quality of the accomodation is high. So we can only recommend a stay in Pousada Arandu.
