It is my first review on Tripadvisor. I usually don't do it and never find the time to do so. But this time I really want to thank the whole Kaliman staff for their help. They DO speak english. they were super helpful. The food in the restaurant was perfect. Very good value for money! they are also located next to the best beaches in Ubatuba. They constantly made sure we were alright and finding our way. From the doorman to the waitress, everyone was perfect! Thanks alot, I truly enjoyed my stay at your pousada and I will recommend it to anyone

Foi uma agradável supresa essa pousada. Tem um ótimo atendimento, fica na praia. Os quartos são limpos e confortáveis. Passei 3 noites com minha família. Minha grande surpresa foi com café da manhã , qualidade dos pães dos bolos e doces . Tudo muito bem preparado e com sabor. O restaurante da pousada também tem ótima variedade e pratos que servem bem 3 pessoas. Fique no quarto 33 no prédio anexo. Quarto com bom espaço e muito silencioso para dormir. Great deal at Ubatuba, this beach is a quiet place to stay this hotel is in front of the sea. You will seat and order drink and food from the bar and restaurant with out leave the complex. The breakfast was really good. Nice breads and great ingredients. With a good mix of options. The room I pick up is number 33 from the back building . The room was clean and with good space. Great deal for a silent night of sleep. I also liked the restaurant. Make 90% of my lunch and dinner there. The also have a pool but for the season even with a pipe of warm water it was cold. But the beach was great. We have a great time there and will come back.

“Overpriced, Poor wifi”

First, be aware that it rains all the time in Ubatuba (which is why they call it "Uba-Chuva; "chuva" means rain in Portuguese.) We knew that going in, so it wasn't the constant rain that bothered us, as it is still warm enough to swim in the ocean during light rain. However, when it downpours, as i… more

First, be aware that it rains all the time in Ubatuba (which is why they call it "Uba-Chuva; "chuva" means rain in Portuguese.) We knew that going in, so it wasn't the constant rain that bothered us, as it is still warm enough to swim in the ocean during light rain. However, when it downpours, as if often does, you usually have to leave the beach. The issue we had was that at Kaliman, there is nothing to do when it rains. As a hotel located in a place where it's known to rain all the time, the LEAST they could do is have an area for guests to hang out (besides the overpriced restaurant) AND have working wifi. The wifi almost never worked; they said it was because of the rain, which is a common excuse for poor wifi in Brazil. So, if you need wifi for work, it's a problem. This place calls itself a "resort" and as such, they should have a common room for relaxing, and some activities/game room for adults (not just a child's room) -- otherwise, it's a not a "resort" but rather just a pousada. It's location IS right on the beach, and they do offer chairs/umbrellas, and the beach is gorgeous. But they do *NOT* offer beach towels!!!! which is another way they are NOT a resort. Lastly, be aware that NOTHING dries here, and this "resort" has no accommodations to dry clothes and towels in the standard rooms. They do have an outdoor hanging thing, but when it rains all the time, that's obviously useless. This place is damp all the time, do to being in the Atlantic Rainforest, and a "resort" should be better equipped to help guests dry their items, such as with an indoor drying option. Just to be clear: We didn't mind the rain. We minded the price we paid for this "resort" which is not our definition of resort. Being located right on the beach does NOT make you a resort; it's your hotel facilities that make you a resort. Also, be aware that the restaurant is extremely overpriced, and the food is average. Unfortunately, all the restaurants in this town serve the exact same average food at the exact same ridiculous prices. Even the seafood -- which should have been amazing -- was average.

“Simple pousada located right at a quite beach”

Very simple rooms but quite sufficient for our stay. The beach would have been good for surfing - however, no board rental. It was difficult to even find a restaurant in the vicinity in the evening (this may be better in high season). The pousada is inexpensive and the breakfast very simple - but o… more

Very simple rooms but quite sufficient for our stay. The beach would have been good for surfing - however, no board rental. It was difficult to even find a restaurant in the vicinity in the evening (this may be better in high season). The pousada is inexpensive and the breakfast very simple - but okay. The restaurant the same. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
