When is the best time to go to Bonfim?

The best time to go to Bonfim is during the dry season, which runs from April to September, or for the traditional Festa de Agosto in August. The dry season offers consistently pleasant weather with less humidity and sunshine, making it ideal for exploring the town and surrounding nature comfortably. Temperatures during these months are generally warm but not excessively hot, superb for outdoor activities or simply enjoying a stroll. For those interested in local culture and festivities, the Festa de Agosto (Festival of August) is a significant highlight. This annual event celebrates the town's patron saint, Bom Jesus de Bonfim, with religious processions, live music, traditional food stalls, and local crafts. It's a busy and joyful period, offering a unique insight into the community's traditions. While the rainy season (October to March) brings lush greenery, it can also mean heavy downpours and higher humidity, which might impact outdoor plans.

"The hotel appears to be made of different buildings. Because of this, it makes the hotel wonderful to explore. The breakfast is also very nice, with a wide variety offered. Two of us were there for nine days. The room we were in was very nice but a little sparse as it didn't have a place to unpack your clothes. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again."

Pousada Casa da Tuta

8/10 Good

"Pros:The location is very close to the historic area and, most importantly, it has parking, which was the deciding factor in choosing this guesthouse. It’s only about a 7-minute walk to the main square. I arrived about two and a half hours before my scheduled check-in time, mainly to see if I could leave my car in the parking area and have a look around the property. There was absolutely no problem. On the contrary, the receptionist kindly offered to let me check in early, which I really appreciated.The rooms are spacious, spotless, and well ventilated. This is particularly important in historic cities, where mold can sometimes be an issue in older buildings.Breakfast is generous, with a good selection of fresh juices. Things to consider:There is an additional fee for using the towels that was not disclosed on the website. Interestingly, this is the second place I have stayed at in Brazil that charges an extra fee if a towel has makeup stains. I found the fee quite excessive — US$11 per towel. As a suggestion, bring your own makeup-removal wipes (which are usually provided in hotels) or an extra hand towel.There was only one hand towel and two bath towels in the room. I’m normally used to staying in places where each guest receives an individual set of towels. This was not a major issue and could easily be resolved, but it might be worth considering providing one bath and face towel set per person. In my case, I found the guesthouse quite noisy. ( Main street)"

Pousada Maria Monteiro

10/10 Excellent

"The pool bartender made the best caipirinhas. The room was very clean and property was well maintained. The breakfast was good and staff helpful and friendly. It is about a 10 minute walk to town, we walked every day. It is uphill on the way back so it was a good workout. If you don’t want a steep uphill walk on the way back, consider driving or a taxi. We would stay there again."
