Pousada Barrabella

We are a seaside boutique guesthouse on the Camamú Bay coast, known for the beautiful view of the tropical gardens, pool, the décor of the spaces crafted by regional artists, the coziness of the rooms, the delicious cuisine all produced in our restaurant, and the friendliness of the staff. We are committed to sustainability; we already have our organic garden and plan to expand actions in this area even more. Pousada Barrabella is located 600 meters from the center of Barra Grande village and near the Carapitangui River, making it easy to get around by walking along the sandy streets. It is set in a wide green area and has an innovative architectural project.

Barra Grande is located on the Maraú Peninsula and offers a paradisiacal setting, with wide, nearly virgin beaches and warm, transparent water, ideal for snorkeling. It is the right destination for those seeking beautiful beaches along Bahia's southern coast, with amazing attractions such as the natural pools of Taipu de Fora Beach, the unforgettable sunset in front of Barrabella, the charming beach full of bars at Ponta do Mutá and the (almost) secret Praia de Algodões. It is impossible not to fall in love with every stretch of sand in Barra Grande, one of the most beautiful destinations among Bahia's beaches.

We are a small team of 20 staff members, many of whom have been with us for more than 10 years. Our expectation is to exchange experiences and knowledge with the wordpackers. We intend to host events at the guesthouse to foster integration with guests and the team, expand the promotion of the destination, reinforce sustainability practices, etc. We hope that the contribution of the wordpackers will bring a special experience for the guests and improve the quality of the services the guesthouse offers; we also hope that the wordpackers will be able to know and enjoy this little piece of paradise in Bahia! We have prepared a room with a bathroom to host the worlpackers and the operating hours at the guesthouse can be negotiated and made flexible according to each collaborator. We provide a meal, in addition to the breakfast served to the staff.

This was the best experience I've had as a volunteer in seven months of traveling! All the staff at the inn welcomed me in a very affectionate way, always asking if I needed anything.

The volunteering program is great, the meals are delicious, the inn is beautiful, and it's located right in front of a super calm beach. Honestly, I can't imagine how it could be better; thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything ❤️

My stay at the inn was very enjoyable. My partner and I were given a comfortable, well equipped room to stay in and delicious food for breakfast and lunch. Our work was straightforward and agreeable, and the hosts provided everything we needed to complete our tasks. I enjoyed playing some live music, bartending for the first time, and helping to serve customers in the restaurant. An opportunity to do photography for a party/proposal arose and we had good cameras with us, so the hosts allowed us to change our duties and take photos, demonstrating great flexibility 😁

Undoubtedly one of the best volunteering experiences at inns I’ve ever had; the hours are respected and the work is easygoing. I managed to learn many new drinks, help in the kitchen, take some photos and meet many people. Kátia, Paulinho, Dudu and Nilza welcomed us very well, I felt very well received and I definitely want to come back. Most of the staff as well, and we formed a very good friendship ❤️

My volunteering experience here was amazing. The property is wonderful, very well cared for and with great facilities, and I even had the opportunity to use the gym. The people made me feel very welcome since the first day. A special thanks to Ana Paula, Rodrigo, and Jonathan, who made my days even lighter and more enjoyable. I also learned a lot, including how to prepare wonderful drinks. I am very grateful for this experience and for all the special people I met here. ✨

I found my volunteer experience at the inn wonderful; the inn's facilities are wonderful, everything very clean and organized. The room I stayed in was great, all meals were very good and well served. I was very well received and welcomed by everyone at the inn, with special mention to Rodrigo, Ana, Eduardo, Santinha, and Rosiane. The tasks were quite easy; I developed new skills as a waiter, which I really liked. Very grateful to Katia for the opportunity!
