Background Illustration for Hotels

Most of Recife's top hotels are between 10 and 20 minutes from the airport, across from the Boa Viagem and Pina Beaches or along Piedade Beach, in the municipality of Jaboatão dos Guararapes.

Courtyard Recife Boa Viagem

$$ | Av. Engenheiro Domingos Ferreira 4661, Recife, 51021-040, Brazil
Down a cobbled street three blocks from the beach in Boa Viagem, this hotel from the Marriott group combines exceptional service with a gorgeous rooftop pool. The 169 modern rooms feature king-size beds, quality sheets, and power showers. Additional amenities include a 24-hour gym, business center, and generous buffet breakfast. The bilingual staff offers guests great advice on how best to enjoy the city.

Mar Hotel Recife

$$ | Rua Barão de Souza Leão 451, Recife, 51030-300, Brazil

A five-minute walk from Boa Viagem Beach, this slightly dated hotel offers spacious rooms that all come with a small, private veranda. While the lobby decor, outdated gym, and '70s-style hotel shops may leave you feeling like you've stepped back in time, the sprawling outdoor pool area, complete with a waterfall and two kiddie pools, pull you back into the present. A new annex offers the most modern rooms.

Pros

  • Near the beach
  • Fun pool area

Cons
