Reviews of Pousada D'Pillel

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!

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.

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

The place is cute and cozy. The staff from reception were very welcoming and nice.

The bed was small and uncomfortable.

Highly recommand this poussada. 5/5

- Very complete breakfast with many food options and changing from day to day. - Super friendly and helpful staff, giving out great day-trip and overall advices that one cannot find elsewhere. - Clean rooms and responsive cleaning staff. - Mosquito net was very effective. - Comfortable bed and smart TV. We felt very welcomed and cared for during our stay.

Ilha Grande is definitely a place for backpackers who want to hike, experience nature and discover private beaches. The staff were incredible and helped us with booking a taxi boat to the beaches and even suggested we hike to a beach no one else goes too - we had a private beach day, which was one of the highlights of our Brazil trip. Breakfast was great, although suggest you go down early when it's hot out. The Pousada is beautiful, especially the garden which is a lovely place to eat breakfast.

Power is limited on the island which also applies to air conditioning - our room was connected to the main Pousada building, so did get hot, even with air conditioning running. It was generally cooler just leaving the doors and windows open, although mosquitos could then get in.

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

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

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!

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

Joao and Michelli were super friendly and helpful, great location and wonderful breakfast - definitely recommended

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

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

Was in a really good location, a really pretty view of the jungle from our balcony and all the staff were really helpful! Especially John who helped us with planning our days and pointed out the best spots to eat/ things to do on the island.

Relaxed atmosphere. Staff always amazing and helpful to make the stay even more enjoyable or help with tour or onward travel bookings

Nothing

Beautiful facilities, friendly and helpful staff and great location

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!

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

The breakfast was good.

I didn't like the lack of air conditioning.
