Vila do Abraao hotellia

Plussat: Excellent breakfast and quiet location yet close to the center

Miinukset: Fairly expensive

Plussat: The garden was beautiful, the rooms were comfortable and it was very well located, walking distance to all that you need. The breakfast was fantastic, lots of options!

Plussat: It’s a very nice quiet place. The room are quite big. And the breakfast is fantastic. The location in town I tought was perfect, central and relaxed.

Plussat: Good room, comfortable bed and the best shower I’ve had in South America with piping hot water. Fan and aircon in the room although we didn’t use/need latter. Very good breakfast, fresh and lots of choice. Lovely location but also quiet. Beautiful garden setting for the rooms as well. Also after check out you can leave luggage and then return and use shower/towels which is so convenient and let’s you make the most of your last day if you have a late transfer/bus. Nice family and some of them speak English which is helpful. Would 100% stay again. We loved it and also the island.

Miinukset: The plug sockets are different to Rio, not the guest house’s fault but be aware. None of our plugs worked in these sockets. They kindly lent us several adaptors but only one worked which we rotated between three of us. WiFi not great but think this is an island problem rather than the guest house.

Plussat: The attentive staff, nice facilities, a comfortable room and a beautiful garden.

Plussat: Great attention. The staff was very kind and the overall place was really nice

Plussat: Very cozy, quiet place. Nice staff, the owner is very helpfull. It is close to the pier where you can easily take a boat and go to the best beaches in Ilha Grande. If you are into meditation and yoga, the Pousada's garden is made for this.

Plussat: Staff and facilities were great.

Plussat: Breakfast was good, had many options and also atleast 4 different fruit. Room and bathroom were very clean. After checking out you could get a shower in a spare bathroom before catching the boat.

Miinukset: Payment process could be improved.

Miinukset: Just okay. Rooms not very nice. Breakfast OK but not more. Staff speaks no english.

Plussat: Everything was great.

Miinukset: The stay was amazing! Muito Obrigado.

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Very kind personnel, good location and delicious homemade breakfast

Miinukset: Nobody speaks English, no storage/wardrobe in room

Plussat: Clean, quiet, good location near the beach and the jungle.

Plussat: Breakfast could be bigger

Miinukset: Really nice and cozy

Miinukset: The WiFi didn’t work in the room, just in reception area; and I asked for a shampoo and they haven’t any .

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and helpful, no queries or requests were seen as a problem. The breakfast was really great - we stayed for 4 nights and it was varied, not repetitive at all. The grounds are beautiful and maintained daily. The chalet itself was great and cleaned to a high standard. The location is good, the walk to the main area was quick but not so close that you could hear lots of noise (we were there over a national holiday so there were lots of people on the island for parties!). The Pousada had its own trolley system (manned by staff) to carry suitcases to the ferry (great for us as we were on a long trip and had a few bags), which saved us having to contact someone in advance. We had quite a late ferry crossing booked but could keep our bags on the premises and relax in the grounds after we checked out which was a bonus.

Miinukset: It's difficult to think of what I didn't like - so instead is a small suggestion; if there could be an option to keep the same towels for the next day to save on washing that would be great - but the pousada is pretty ecologically aware and environmentally-friendly in lots of other ways so this is a minor comment.

Plussat: Loved the location and the jungle feeling, all the staff were very friendly and breakfast had loads of choice.

Miinukset: We had the 2 bed chalet, horrible smell in the room, very dark and wobbly old bunk beds. Didn’t want to spend any time in the room.

Plussat: Breakfast was good quality compared to other options I saw on Ilha Grande, nice fruit and fresh bread every day. The cabins felt quite private. Set back from the main town so was nice and quiet. Coffee and cake at 5pm was a nice touch.

Miinukset: The rooms were very small, the pool was not impressive and very overchlorinated. Some of the outside areas could do with being tidied up/gardened. Expensive for what it was, but that might be the island location.

Plussat: We loved the atmosphere. It’s like a small tropical garden with that cute chalets. Breakfast is really good and eggs are prepared fresh upon request. The chalets are cozy. We would def. recommend this Pousada and will come back!

Plussat: Natural environment

Miinukset: Pipe smell in the toilet

Plussat: Tropical rainforest view

Plussat: Great location, friendly helpful staff, comfortable room.

Plussat: Excellent location ,on the beach Nice and clean room Excellent and fresh breakfast All the facilities (AC, TV, seif) Very friendly and cooperative staff

Miinukset: Lack of mosquito nets on the windows

Plussat: Excellent hosts. Wonderful beach and water view. Nice breakfast.

Miinukset: Ground floor room so if enjoying the view less privacy

Plussat: The staff were excellent, supplying GF biscuits and allowing us to hang out when it was raining. Room faced the beach and was very clean.

Miinukset: It was expensive for what it was and the breakfast provided didn’t reflect the cost either.

Plussat: Beachfront location Super Friendly Staff Great Breakfast Very Clean

Miinukset: Lots of mosquitoes however this is the case on the island and not unique to the property

Plussat: Perfect location on beachside

Miinukset: The staff spent hours chatting by night and we couldn't sleep until midnight, unacceptable. Don't choose this structure if you have trolleys as it is 600mt far from the pier and you have to cross the beach to reach the pousada.

Plussat: breakfast was very good with a varied selection of fresh fruit and food.

Plussat: Very well located, very friendly staff that helped us to pick up the best tours and still managed for the boat to pick us up right in front the place. Great breakfast as well!

Plussat: your only minutes away from where the life is on IG but you are... Absolute lovely place

Miinukset: nix

Plussat: Room was nice, clean and has had a nice sea view. Excellent breakfast and very friendly staff

Miinukset: Hotel could only been entered via beach which makes it a bit difficult if you have luggage. Chair for the balcony would have been good.

Plussat: Meme was amazing, she was so helpful, and knew so much about the island. Plus she had great tips and connections to make sure we got the most out of our stay. The location is amazing! Literally on the beach, beautiful views, not smack bang in the middle of town, but a short 5 min walk to restaurants.

Miinukset:

Plussat: - lovely setting - very nice breakfast with fresh fruits and several home-made cakes and savory preparations - small snack with cakes and hot beverages is served in the afternoon in the common room - many entertainment options (games, ping-pong table...) are available - WiFi available, although a bit slow - possibility to pay by card

Miinukset: - AC only available at a surcharge

Plussat: Good facilities and very gracious hosts.

Miinukset: Slightly on the expensive side.

Plussat: Beautiful decoration and setup, very good location in the heart of the town, nice breakfast with fresh fruits and juices Beautiful breakfast area decorated in middle of a jungle garden

Miinukset: I had a bunk bed in a four person room which was an average in comfort The normal bed seemed to be comfortable

Plussat: Amazing facility and staff, good breakfast, very clean and beautiful, calm location with nature outside. Will definitely stay here again!

Plussat: Nice and quiet location. Perfect for relaxing. There was a mosquito net in the window, which is what you need on this island.

Miinukset: Rooms is very small if you bring big suitcases. And only one person can be in the bathroom at once because its too tiny.

Plussat: Incredibly friendly staff and really good breakfast! Ilha Grande is an expensive place to visit so we felt this place gave you good value for money compared to other options. Also allowed us to borrow beach towels and snorkelling equipment for the week free of charge.

Miinukset: WiFi wasn’t that fast but not a problem when you’re on an island with so much to do!

Plussat: Great breakfast and very nice staff!

Miinukset: They charge extra money for the use of A/C.

Plussat: Staff is very friendly and helpfull

Plussat: Cute little pousada, well situated close to the beach walk in Abraão but still far enough that you don't get disturbed by any noise when trying to sleep. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good. Easy to hike from Abraão to nice beaches on the island.

Miinukset: A bit expensive considering the simplicity of the pousada, but I guess you pay for the location. There was a sign in the bathroom to please help the planet by not throwing your towels on the ground if you didn't need new ones, so I didn't, but I still got a new towel. Just felt a bit unnecessary. The AC in the room was a bit loud, but not really a problem either.

Plussat: super nice and hospitable staff Very funny and welcoming colorful design Amazing breakfast perfect price-performance ratio

Miinukset: you can't really stay long inside bc it's tiny

Plussat: Personal was amazing and really friendly, great vibe breakfast and location.

Plussat: The guesthouse was so cute and in an amazing location! The table and chairs outside our room was a nice touch as we could have a few beers and play a game of cards there before heading out. 2min away from the pier The rooms are comfortable and very clean. We only booked two nights here, and we were very sad to leave.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Good location... Quirky front garden. Nice breakfast. Comfortable bed.

Miinukset: Poor welcome... Was on the phone did not welcome us. Room was small and cluttered. Badly furnished with an old, mixture of poor quality bedding. Bathroom sink was not fixed to wall on one side. Possibly it would fall off. Rusty soap rack in shower. The outside light was on all night which made sleeping difficult. To be honest we were disappointed. The property lack a sense of love and pride. We have stayed in budget accommodation before and loved it.

Plussat: Very pretty decor, & the rooms are comfy. Love the paint job & garden!

Miinukset: Well, manager not there very often. Is only weird old guy who doesn't know anything about the island. Hotel (& everything else ) is jammed in too tight...very claustrophobic !

Plussat: Great location and the staff were both friendly and professional. Breakfast also had a good variety of food available. Our stay was rather easy going and pleasant - I’d recommend it.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Good breakfast, comfortable hammocks on the terrace, nice green garden around the hotel

Miinukset: Hard pillows

Plussat: Situated in beautiful gardens 10 minutes from the busy pier area of Abraão. Very peaceful and relaxing surroundings. The host was friendly and happy to give advice on good places to eat or walking trails nearby. The room was perfectly adequate, clean and with air con. The shower room was a bit tight but that is just a small detail. The host advised that this room will be upgraded soon however I would be happy to stay there again anytime. Lovely buffet breakfast. A most pleasant stay.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Clean, beautiful, excellent breakfast, calm.

Miinukset: Little far and hilly from the beach if you have heavy bags.

Plussat: Everything about that place. Great location, close to jungle, not far from Abraão town center. Beautiful view from balcony. Clean rooms, great bathroom. Tasty breakfasts with many local fruits. Best host, which didn't include costs of night of our friend, which couldn't arrive on island. It's a best value for the price. Can't wait to come back to Pousada Albatroz!

Miinukset: Nothing, it was a shame that we booked there only 2 nights...

Plussat: Atmosphere, location, delicious breakfast, beautiful garden, cats and eco friendly attitude (trash recycling).

Miinukset: Would be nice to get a tag for the door if cleaning is not needed

Plussat: The breakfast is awesome! Exquisit and exotic fresh Fruits, bread, scrabble eggs, cheese, good coffee and every day a new super delicious cake. Location is just meters away from the tropical forest and 5-8 minutes walking to the beach. My girlfriend and i had a great time and would stay here again.

Miinukset: Everything just perfect!!

Plussat: The Albatroz Pousado is a terrific pousada owned and managed by a very competent sister (Danielle) and brother (Bruno) team who alternate at the Pousada. They have invested in upgrading the physical installations, and plan to continue to do so. The newer rooms have brand new air-conditioners and overhead fans and small refrigerators and plenty of electrical outlets for your kids to recharge their digital devices. The walk to the Pousada is relatively short walk from the pier and center of the Vila de Abraão on a packed sand road culminating in a modest incline up a stone paved road. Those with heavy luggage might want to hire one of the many "carreteiros" to transport your suitcases up the the pousada. Coming down is relatively easy. Breakfast is very good (as previous reviewers have noted). There are plenty of hammocks to rest on amid the nicely landscaped grounds (lot of bromelia). There is also a communal kitchen and refrigerator for those who want to prepare some meals or snacks at the Pousada. Danielle's suggestion to hike to the natural pool (Poção - Trail T1) was appreciated.

Miinukset: Our 4 day -three night stay at the Pousada was perfect; there really wasn't anything to criticize.

Plussat: Very nice and clean, cosy place surrounded by jungle. As we had some rainy days we really enjoyed the hammocks and that the room was spacious to relax in. Breakfast was good with yoghurt and fresh fruits although also only some really white bread. The staff was very welcoming and helpful.

Miinukset: The bread and the juice at the breakfast weren’t the best

Plussat: Location is really beautiful. It’s a secluded beach and if there are not many people at the hotel (especially if there aren’t any kids) it could be quite peaceful.

Miinukset: Because there’s nothing else but the hotel you are stuck with eating there at night. Restaurant serves a limited range of food and none of it is good. It’s overpriced especially for what you get. AC works only at night, which is OK because energy runs on a generator... but... AC equipment is extremly noisy and you can hear the generator as well, so instead of listening to the waves you hear machines

Plussat: Cabins were very simple and very nice. Perfect for an island getaway. Private beach right outside the cabin was great. The food was really nice too

Miinukset: It rained whilst we were there, which is not their fault, but it made all the tap water brown and smelly

Plussat: The location and beach is beautiful.

Miinukset: We paid a very high price for a luxury cabana, which smelled like mold, right next to the toilets (smelly) and next to a very noisy generator, which never stopped. The mold smell came from the bed, we learned, as it was covered in mold underneath.

Plussat: Nature of the place ,.can't go wrong with island But miss sold ....

Miinukset: Basically we contacted the place days before arrival to let them know we would arrive a couple of days later ( due to family issues)..I rang 2 days in a row to only get through eventually 3 days later. (Direct contact seems very difficult and discontinued..they don't always answer the phone). No other means of contact exists btw. Upon arrival the room we were given was not what we had expected. It was dark..not by the sea (as shown in the pictures when we booked) and damp. Because we changed our booking from the 9_15 to the 11_16 we asked to be upgraded. They not only charged the full booking (six nights)claiming booking.com charges commission regardless but also refused to up grade us unless we paid extra for the room we wanted to move to . (May I say there were plenty of rooms empty). My partner was so upset that eventually she upgraded for the last 2'nighrs .(14\15). (I understand the need to charge commission for a full booking but we stayed a night less. That difference should have been refunded or paid towards the upgrade - less the commission which should have been 20 per cent per daily rate. Daily rate was 400 reais ) We paid an extra 260 reais for a two night upgrade) and paid a total of 2400 reais for six nights having only stayed 5 plus upgrade... The hostess is if anything umpleasant...does not talk to guests directly but sends her naive staff and when I asked for a full receipt of the full booking and upgrade and dates we actually stayed at the premises I was told it would be sent by email ( and was asked for my email) as the hostess did not have time then to provide me with this information, which is rightfully mine. She was busy playing with a camera drone. Thing we found extremely unpleasant and intrusive in a private beach per say ... All I want to say is that my partner books frequently through booking.com and such situation has never happened. The hostess"s inability to be flexible and honest is slightly worrying.

Plussat: Perfect location, private beach. Good food, very friendly staff.

Miinukset: Very dark and damp rooms, no love for guests, WIFI is there but it’s a joke - rarely works - and when it does, count 2h to send a photo. Although employees were very friendly, the general attitude of the owner was unpleasant and not welcoming. We did not feel respected.

Plussat: Simplicity / nature / beauty / privacy / attendance / hospitality

Plussat: If you want to get away from the crowd on Ilha Grande, this is THE place to be. The location is amazing and the cabanas are right on the beach. The staff is super friendly. The welcome drink, one free transfer to abrao and goodbye/travel goody bag were super nice. The price/quality ratio is great.

Miinukset: Even though the staff was friendly, only one staff member spoke English. The shared bathroom area wasn’t super clean. The food was a bit too salty.

Plussat: The staff was really friendly!!

Plussat: Good breakfast, great location in front of the beach. Very friendly staff

Miinukset: Not very clean, difficult to localise, some insects in the room (mostly geckos, but still). Anyway, in line with the average pousadas in Ilha Grande

Plussat: staff great to us, price, location, breakfast pretty good, good shower and good ac. even though we could not lock our patio or window there was no security issue i.e. safe. lastly, the staff stored our bags after we checked out, and even several hours after check out they let my wife take a shower after swimming in the ocean during our last day.

Miinukset: could not completely shut porch or windows and consequently always had a few mosiquito bites and could not completely lock room. towel changes were infrequent.

Plussat: Incredible hospitality

Plussat: Staff is really nice and helpful, rooms were clean, AC worked great and it's 2 minutes from the beach

Miinukset: Nothing particularly.

Plussat: Staff was very nice. Room is very clean.

Miinukset: Breakfast could be better with more veriaty. There is no room with 3 single beds, only 1 double and 1 single bed.

Plussat: Very friendly employees the all time from the moment we enter the hotel until we left and the hotel is very clean

Miinukset: The price of all most 100 euro was not worth it ! because this is very simple hotel with very small rooms and old furnitures and this price is absolutely unacceptable for what this kind of accommodation the offers .

Plussat: Very friendly owner, great breakfast

Miinukset: Besides the owner, staff doesn’t speak any English

Plussat: The location is central but quiet.

Miinukset: unfriendly staff. Very unmotivated. Breakfast quality medium well. Pousada didn't answer my question via email. Construction noise from 9am closeby

Plussat: The staff were amazing! Friendly, helpful and cleaned the room regularly. The room was clean, the shower was hot enough, the wifi was consistent and the breakfast was great.

Miinukset: There were too many beds in the room, which made the room seem crowded. There was no nightstand, no chair, no lamps in the room.

Plussat: We had breakfast...There was possibility to leave our luggage in the reception after checking out.

Plussat: The breakfast was awesome.

Miinukset: The room wasn't very clean and the bathroom number 6 was not smelling good.

Plussat: Location is great, chalets are sweet, local community and Diego are very welcoming, boat transfer is very easy, tours are at an affordable price and we were lucky to be the only guests there do it was like a tailor made holiday

Miinukset: Dogs barking at night very near the chalets made sleeping very uncomfortable. There are quite a lot of mosquitoes and no mosquitoe nets are provided which is a real shame as it is really uncomfortable if you haven't brought any lotions with you. No water bottles offered, a complimentary tray would be a plus especially on arrival. Breakfast is quite basic and there is no cold milk for cereals...

Plussat: The friendliest staff, the cleanliness and the great breakfast!

Plussat: - Breakfast was good - Location is good/ not at the main street - In general friendly and helpful staff, but see also negative points

Miinukset: - Uncomfortable bed (in particular old/ uneven pillows) - Cracks in the ceiling where light came in all night - Although the hotel lists a safe (without extra charge), they wanted to charge my girlfriend for the safe at check out. Only when I engaged in the discussion it was suddenly no issue any more - We wanted to check out 15min later, they told us that this is not possible without extra charge of 1/2 day rate - To get the room cleaned you need to hang your room key at a board near the reception. However, the reception is not always occupied and thus other guests and non-guests have access to the room keys during the day. - In general, expensive for what they offer

Plussat: There was always someone around to help with anything needed. And they had tea and cake available all day which was a lovely little addition.

Miinukset: Nothing. It was great!

Plussat: Nice garden and location, about 5 minutes away from the pier.

Miinukset: The room as well as the hotel facilities were quite basic for the price we paid.

Plussat: Just an average place, rather at the back of the village. If you are looking for a quiet place then that is perhaps an option, but in my view it was not good value for money.

Miinukset: It looked very nice on booking, but the reality was that it vis quite old and the rooms are old too. The A/C was bussing like hell, a lot of mosquitoes (not a surprise in places where water is) but the net was not sealed so new mosquito armada was coming in every minute.

Plussat: Great location. Quiet but close to town.

Miinukset: Property is dated but is similar to other properties in the area. WiFi was good in the common area but not good in the room.

Plussat: Location and view were amazing, the staff was friendly and helpful, and it was so clean!

Miinukset: The WiFi barely works at all

Plussat: The view was beautiful and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. There was generally also a very good vibe with the other guests and it was great to have the deck for breakfast and drinking in the evening.

Miinukset: Beds weren’t particularly comfortable and some of us didn’t like the breakfast as there wasn’t much choice (bread, fruit, cereal and cake everyday) but still a good standard for a hostel.

Plussat: Great vibe, great hostel, great breakfast

Miinukset: There's was no Wi-Fi due to the storm but that was out of their control

Plussat: Best place for sunset. Love the deck. Super friendly staff. Far from the rest of town but also within walking distance to everything. Great location

Miinukset: The room smelt strongly of old expired coconut oil upon entering. There's a guy in the room that snored like crazy. Loud and nonstop. I could not sleep much at all. No internet upstairs. My bed didn't even have a power socket. I had to use the one at my friend's bed.

Plussat: The deck and the location

Miinukset: The mattress had moat and the kitchen facilities were very basic.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: By the beach. Cute room. Free internett access. Nice people.

Miinukset: Mould, bedbugs, noisy, not helpful personel, bad breakfast.

Plussat: Amazing place and location. Highly recommended !

Plussat: Amazing staff, nice breakfast, and coffee break, area is quiet, decorated nicely,

Miinukset: Air conditioner too loud. Sound isolation non existent.

Plussat: Passionate hospitality, Nice breakfast, Calm neighborhood

Plussat: Monica is a very good host, she gave us a warm welcome and was always there when we needed something or had questions about the area. She doesn’t speak English though but that wasn’t a problem for us. Very clean accommodation.

Miinukset: Everything was great!

Plussat: Quite central and at a 5 min walk from the port of Abraão. The breakfast is nice with great fruits, amazing coffee nice bread and cake. There is always a coffee and tea pot with cake in the afternoon.

Miinukset: A lot of noise in the night in the roofs due to bats and birds..didn’t really like that.

Plussat: Staff were lovely! Breakfast was nice, wifi was good, location was great. The best thing about the property is the lovely people who can't do enough to help you.

Miinukset: The rooms are a little bit spartan but overall pretty comfy.

Plussat: Hosts with minimal english but very helpful and accommodating. We were able to leave our bags with the hosts for the day and then they provided us with towels and use of the communal showers when we returned that day after checking out which was great before our long transfer.

Plussat: Everything was good. However it was sometimes hard to communicate with hotel’s staff because they spoke only portuguese.

Plussat: Great place, great breakfast. The staff went over the top to be friendly and helpful, even with little English. Kept clean and nice throughout the stay. Good value!

Miinukset: The air conditioning was a little loud.

Plussat: Proximity with nature, great staff and breakfast

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: For whom it may concern. We liked the connection with Nature, as it is inside of the Atlantic Florest. That's exactly beside of a small river, waterfall, with a constant music from Nature. I liked the animals around, cat, monkey, birds, ants, etc. The hammack is a amazing place to read a book. The shower is really a great pressure and hot. The room facilities are great for the value. The breakfast place is wonderful with a library and people can read, play cards, have a chat beside the river. It's only 7 minutes from the Harbour on foot, with a short uphill way, that's is a great surprise, the location, if you like the Atlantic Florest. The breakfast is great, seasonal fruits, coffee, juice, cakes, tapioca and much more. If you are vegetarian or vegan, the owner will help as much as possible to provide a good breakfast for you. You can buy your things and ask the owner to prepare for your breakfast too, if you have any specific diet. The breakfast is a great place to make new friends and listen nice songs. The owner will offer boats trips and give you tips about the best location to eat and have fun according with your preferences. It's a little village, so there's a limit of offer, if you stay longer there. The beach is awesome. No banking machine available. Be sure your credit card is ok. Take extra money, and if you pay the things by cash you might get a discount in some places. There's free filtered water available. So, you will save money with water and will avoid plastic bottles. The lodge is simple, but very well decorated and has a great atmosphere for people that loves Nature. The Wi-Fi connection is great. No worries at all. Thank you for all.

Miinukset: Warnig:*If you really, really, really like the TV, please before you confirm your booking be sure the signal is working as that was not available and it might be a disapointment if you book it expecting a TV in the room. It was not our case, expecting for a TV, but is better ask to be sure if you are a TV lover. Usually, the TV is working, it has been said. But, not at this period due strong previous raining. It's not an issue if you don't care about the TVs.

Plussat: Amazing host, breakfast and location.

Miinukset: Nothing. It was a wonderful stay

Plussat: Kind and helpful Staff Quiet and very relaxing place Private small waterfall

Miinukset: The toilet didnt work properly Check out at 9:30am

Plussat: Worth it alone for the Marmoset Monkeys that visited during breakfast. Quiet, tranquil jungle location but a very short walk into the centre of Abraão.

Plussat: The staff was always friendly and always willing to help us on our next journey. There's also a lot of friendly cats, who might even be inclined to sneak in to your bedroom and sleep with you. The breakfast was also an added bonus, which is all fresh and does a good job at filling you up.

Miinukset: The walk was a little far from the town centre, but after awhile you get used to it and it starts to become pleasant.

Plussat: The breakfast was delicious, actually much better than the pictures shown here. The location is good too, away from the crowds. We also liked the staff as they were very friendly.

Miinukset: The window of our room had no blinds so we got up at the sunrise. Another thing we did not like is that breakfast during off season starts too late (8:30AM)

Plussat: So many things to like! We felt so welcome and Rita really made us feel at home! Her tips were always useful and we enjoyed some great recommendations! The rooms were very comfortable and clean. The breakfast was brilliant and we loved the homemade cake and juices! We wholeheartedly recommend Ouro Verde and hope you get to see the kingfishers at breakfast!

Miinukset: Nothing to complain about! It maybe very slightly further away but only minutes really!

Plussat: Rita's recommendations were really helpful and most of the days the breakfast was amazing

Miinukset: The showers weren't all that reliable and it felt very damp, especially in the second room where the fan didn't work.

Plussat: Really comfortable bed, lovely food and attentive staff.

Miinukset: Tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms would have been better rather than having to wait for restaurant to open and also most of the menu you had to order the meal for two people so you couldn't have different meals at times. You dont always want to eat the same meals.

Plussat: The location is exceptional. The pousada's owner, Ms Andresa, is almost always there and is extremely attentive to whatever needs you may have. Besides, we had a very telling experience. Claudia, my partner, lost a ring while we were there. Nothing valuable in monetary, but extremely important for her in emotional terms. After we came back home from our vacation, and after some hesitation (we did not want anyone to be accused of stealing), we got in touch with Ms Andresa. And, to our surprise, the ring was found and will be returned to us soon. We had left it in a corner of our room's safe box.

Miinukset: Each room has an air conditioner, and a ceiling fan. But most of the air conditioners are quite old and noisy. Nonetheless, quite a few of our fellow guests left them on for the whole night, making it difficult for us to sleep (we come from Chile, where air conditioning is not supposed to be a basic need). For this reason, during the two weeks we stayed there, we changed rooms two times; the second was a complete success, we were moved to a small group of isolated rooms that is reached by steep stairs. No problem, extra exercise is always welcome!

Plussat: The hotel is excellent, the staff superb and the local is great - close to the centre and at the same time quiet and Family-friendly. And the hotel has a shutter boat which is reliable and nice

Plussat: Nice place not too far from the town with a view Owner was really helpful and gave us a lot of informations about the area. Breakfast was good. Room was nice with beautiful settings. Nice to wake up by the ocean.

Miinukset: Place a bit out dated. Especially the bathroom. The taxi boat they use is quite old and slow, broke down twice during our stay. Careful about the walk around the island. We have been warmed about not doing it at night. But even daytime it is very sleepery.

Plussat: My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at Pousada Portal Do Sol on Ilha Grande for my 30th Birthday between 17-19th July and this place is simply breathtaking. This place has friendly staff, all amenities and food was outstanding - the best we've had to far in our Brazil

Miinukset: Nothing - the place is perfection.

Plussat: Amazing food, amazing people , amazing location, thanks a lot

Miinukset: Everything

Plussat: A beautiful place with a lovely staff !! Best place to stay on the island !!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful location. Kind hosts.

Miinukset: We were unlucky and it rained a lot. There is not much to do if it rains but you can take the shuttle to the main town.

Plussat: The setting, close to the vila but more quiet

Miinukset: There should be one complimentary transfer to the Vila a day

Plussat: Great seclusion from the rest of the island. The staff were lovely and always had a smile. The breakfast is simple but nice and has a selection of meats, cheese, pastries and cakes. The owner is lovely and very friendly. We plan on returning to Rio in the future and we will absolutely return to Ilha Grande and we will stay here again. I absolutely loved this place.

Miinukset: You have to call to get the boat to pick you up to bring you to the property. We don’t speak Portuguese so we went to the tourist office to get them to call for us and they were always willing to help. It wasn’t a big problem, it’s just a heads up to anyone who doesn’t speak Portuguese, get one of the locals to call for you, they all know this property and they will help you.

Plussat: Very helpful and friendly staff. The location is great. The rooms are small but pleasant.

Plussat: Breakfast was excellent and well replenish. Staff were helpful which came with a smile.

Miinukset: Rooms were. Tiny and the bathroom was difficult to manage - because of its size difficult to use. Grounds need urgent attention and clean up. Little English spoken

Plussat: Great Pousada, in the center of Abrao. Pool is great to refresh when the weather is hot. Breakfast is very good.

Miinukset: The rooms are a little bit small but very good price/quality

Plussat: Beatiful place on the island. the host is extremly friendly and helpful (offering to fill up water bottles, recommendations for trips etc.), very nice and quiet garden, breakfast there was served there as well.

Plussat: The room was clean and sufficiently equipped. All staff members were extremely friendly and helpful - we felt really welcomed. Breakfast was quite casual, however with different cakes and fruits in the morning. Really good location and more or less quite.

Miinukset: Small rooms, but wasn’t a problem at all. Unfortunately, the Wifi wasn’t properly working.

Plussat: The position Was great! Good breakfast.

Miinukset: WiFi was not so good.
