Ilha Grande Bay Hotel Guide - Romantic Hotels in Ilha Grande Bay, Brazil

Stayed only 2 nights but would have loved to have stayed more. Was met by the host who offered us a beer:drink on arrival whilst sorting out the stay information. He was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information for what to do. (which we did and had a great time! Go to Trindade beaches!). The room was clean and had a hammock to lie in outside. The place is covered with tropical gardens and there was loads of wildlife - marmoset monkeys were in the trees, humming birds were in the flowers by the pool and they have 8 cats, a parrot and a dalmation! Breakfast very good and hosts friendly. Would have loved to stay more but were on a strict intinery around Brazil.

The hotel was far more basic than we expected - rooms very drab and poorly furnished. Location was lovely but few facilites for sunbathing and relaxing. No real communal sitting room for use when weather is poor. The dinner was excellent and views from dining area over the bay were good. We had very bad rain and the roof in our bedroom leaked !!

Lovely idea to build a this well maintained pousada in the forest, even though the poor weather was not ideal we greatly enjoyed our short stay. A lot of attention to detail, bungalows very nicely equipped and the log fire helped keep the inside cosy. Great breakfast (from 9am!), the only criticism is the hot water tank has low capacity considering size of the hot tub, the water ran out at about 25% full.

nice and clean hotel, the breakfast was great and the staff are very friendly !

In serious need of upkeep. Standard not up to a 4 star hotel Great location and friendly staff

The manager is ABSOLUTELY CHARMING (A GERENTE E MUITA ENCANTADORA :-))) . Although she does not speak English (and it helped that I speak some Portuguese), she makes every effort to make you feel very welcome indeed - in classic warm Brazilian style. Our room was SPOTLESS, and the breakfast buffet the next morning was extensive and tasty. We were sorry that we could not cancel our following booking to stay there longer - we gladly would have. The pousada is also conveniently located in a very quiet location, between the town centre and the better beach close to town. Highly recommended!

My husband and I loved our stay at Pousada do Sandi. The property is beautifully decorated and the wonderful 300 year old architecture is something to behold. Our room was well appointed and very well maintained with a modern bathroom. The staff was extremely helpful for all of our needs. The included breakfast offered everything you could imagine - fresh fruits and juices, eggs, cheese, meats, cereals and many delicious pastries. We were there for 5 days and each day there were a couple of unique items. The grounds were lovely and the restaurant was top notch. I can't say enough good things about our experience at this charming old pousada.
