    The accommodation is amazing and sparkling, and the breakfast was incredible, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options. They even make some of the cakes and cheeses themselves using fresh ingredients — a small detail that made a big difference and shows how much they care about their guests. The staff were all so lovely and welcoming. João, in particular, was incredibly helpful, giving us great tips on what to do and explore around this little paradise. Highly recommended — we had a wonderful experience!

    The television in our bedroom could’ve been better placed as it was very very high up in the air.

    I appreciate the hotels commitment to the nautical theme, the games were fun, and I liked the ping-pong table. The breakfast was a good quality, with plenty of options, including lots of sweet treats, which I appreciate it. The bed was soft and large, and the showers were always hot. The staff were helpful as well.

    You have to pay extra per night for the airco. Which i don't mind, they have good reasons. But it is a very old, noisy and inefficient model. Recommended to get that switched out for something more modern, both more energy efficient and guest friendly

    Great location and good looking hotel. Helpful staff and just a great stay overal!

    The rooms were a little dark and a bit dated but still comfortable.

    We loved our stay here! The staff were lovely, especially Michelle who was super helpful and helped us organise trips and transportation. The breakfast was great with a lot of choice, and it was nice to have coffee and cakes provided in the afternoon too. There were some lovely common areas, especially the garden where we had breakfast and the main room with a table tennis table, good for rainy days!

    There was a lot of humidity in our room and some services concerning electricity were limited (eg A/C), but it was expected because of the nature of the island

    The receptionist was very very helpful, answered a lot of our questions and helped us out when checking out with some extra time for showering etc. Homemade buffet breakfast was very good in a nice patio

    The vent in the room did not work properly and there was no soap in the bathroom.

    The staff is the nicest I have encountered in a long time , they helped us tremendously on how to use our short time on the island to the fullest. Also the breakfast served in the beautiful garden is superb!

    Adding a shower to main entrance would be a good improvement, also changing room towels on a daily basis.

    Location is perfect, 5-minutes walk to main Ilha Grande harbor, so very vlose to the center but distant enough to not get noise. Staff were extremely nice, they did their best to make our stay memorable. They also arranged for us comfortable transportation from/to Rio with a reasonable price. Great breakfast, specially home-made cakes and fresh fruits. The yard is very beautiful, and activity room was very nice.

    We recently stayed at this hotel and loved it. The place was really clean and comfortable, which made us feel right at home. The staff were super friendly and could all speak English. They were always there to help us with anything we needed, making our stay much easier. We really enjoyed the breakfast. It was tasty and had plenty of options to choose from. The garden was another highlight - it's well-kept and a beautiful spot to relax. In short, this hotel is great for its clean rooms, friendly staff, good breakfast, and lovely garden. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a nice place to stay.

    Can't think of anything!

    The property and room was beautiful! Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. There was hot showers and good wifi during our stay. John was absolutely amazing and helpful for us who needed to get to the remote parts of the island without having to pay $$$ for private ferry. He was very detail oriented and really cared for us as guests. Highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again without a doubt!

    Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy the breakfast at all - the choices were very limited to cakes, hot dogs and pizza - none of which I would eat for breakfast. There was fresh fruit but none of this was covered so was covered in flies every day. The breakfast was the same every day ☹️ Also the staff making the breakfast and running the restaurant area were not friendly, they did not acknowledge or say good morning and made us feel unwelcome there. Lastly the room was only cleaned once during the week we stayed which we felt was not enough.

    The owner was extremely friendly and helpful and so were the staff on reception. We really like the rooms with a balcony and hammock and lovely views of the rainforest. Also had a good communal area with table tennis. Great location.
