Pousada Manaca is such a nice place to stay. It is one of the few pousada's that is located on the beach. The owner is really friendly and gave us some advice for restaurants (which you will need as there are a lot of bad restaurants at Ilha Grande). The rooms are small and simple, but clean. Breakfast is really... More

Very basic pousada with out any charm. Rooms have what you need for this type of stay, very clean, new quiet Ac units, a must in this island due to the mosquitoes. Bathrooms are properly cleaned and have hot water in the shower. Breakfast like other guests have said are good for the standard on the island, fresh juice, fruits,... More

what a brilliant and good value accommodation! Safe, clean with an incredible breakfast, overlooking the beach. It's in a great spot - we paid for someone on the pier to carry our bags to the pousada as it's right on the beachfront, so cant wheel cases!! only about 7 min walk from the pier though if you've got good biceps!...

We had a very pleasant stay at Pousada Manaca. Situated on the beach, the pousada is just a few minutes away from local shops and restaurants. Yet, it was very peaceful at night. Our room was nice with the most powerful shower we've had in Brazil. The owner was very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was extremely generous and... More

Gerard and Bianca were so helpful. A basic room, but beautiful, relaxing common areas, and a close walk to everything. The breakfast is amazing, everything was super fresh. I'm still amazed by the mangos. Ihla Grande is the neatest Island , we will be back someday and definitely stay at Manaca.

Pousada Manaca is a perfect location with friendly staff and good sized rooms. The location is the best compromise between close enough to the main town but far enough away to feel like you have your own little slice of the island. The owner, Gerard, goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. The breakfast is the best... More

Pousada Manaca is in a very good location on the beach, a 3 minute walk along the beach into "downtown" area where all the restaurants, shops and bars are located. The pousada itself is basic, no fancy frills, but very clean and I cannot say enough about Gerard and his staff (Bianca in particular). They are friendly and helpful and... More

Nice location right on the beach, clean rooms, friendly staff and a wonderful breakfast. We still dream about the delicious fruitjuice and the coffe. Gerard is very helpful, he even fixed a taxi to pick us up in Rio. We will certainly be back one day!

Good pousada nothing bad to say apart from the cook who was the older lady gave my girlfriend a dirty look at breakfast for no apparent reason and made her feel very unwelcome and awkward. Little tip for Manaca, if you work in any type of hospitality industry such as pousada's, guesthouse's etc being rude or looking moody doesn't make... More
