Dendê Jazz Hostel e Pousada is situated on the beachfront in Morro de São Paulo, 1.7 km from Morro de Sao Paulo Fort and 1.1 km from Aureliano Lima Square. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a concierge service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is set a few steps from Second Beach. I was pleasantly surprised by our stay at Dende Jazz. Fran, our lovely host, made us feel comfortable and at home from the very beginning. He offered us two different rooms at the same price so we were able to pick the one we liked more. The breakfast was simple but perfect (eggs, bread, ham, cheese, fresh fruit and fruit juice, tea, coffee and fried plantains). The location is maybe 25m from Praia 3 and a very short walk to the other beaches. Our room was so nice; super clean, comfortable, great a/c, nice balcony with a hammock and all to ourselves. Fran also informed us about the nightlife in town. Highly recommend!

Conveniently set in the Vitoria district of Salvador, Luz de Regina Bahia is situated 3 km from Pelourinho, 3.2 km from San Francisco church and 3.5 km from Arena Fonte Nova.

At the hostel, each room has a desk and a balcony with a city view. At Luz de Regina Bahia rooms include a wardrobe and a flat-screen TV. The person in charge was such a nice person, he escorted me to the bus stop with an umbrella the morning I left to make sure I didn't get wet. He was also very helpful about what to see in Salvador and how to get to places. The location couldn't be better, midpoint between the historic centre and beaches/ historic lighthouse, all within walking distance. The neighbour is lined with big old trees and nearly the hostel are museums, particularly the Museum of Art where people can view (currently) Carybé"s sketches of Bahía and his time in Salvador. Very nice indeed.
