Asalem is beautifully situated amongst palm trees with a sea view and laid-back feel. The rooms are basic but good with all you need for a stay in paradise. It´s a big plus to enjoy a bed with sea view! I stayed at Asalem for six nights and had one dinner at the hotel. The meal was delicious and service... More

The place is in a great location - very quiet and isolated and a few minutes boat ride from the village. It is the perfect place for couples who want some time alone, but I would not recommend it for anyone who wants a lively place. There are only a few rooms and no official bar or anything so the...

I had a great time at Asalem recently, with my parrents. Really nice pousada, a short walk (25 min) from Abrao, the city on Ilha grande. Good spacious rooms, very clean, amazing view over the sea, a good breakfast and a high service level. We had dinner 1 day during our 4 day stay, and it was only so so.... More

We had an amazing stay at Asalem, the bilingual staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The dinner was probably the best food we had on the island and the rooms were perfect. It is definitely not a state of the art luxury resort, but if you are looking for a beautiful relaxing place with a great environment I would highly... More

We had a great time at asalem. It's a 5min boat ride from abrao and we liked being away from the the village but still relatively close. Slightly annoying that asalem charge every time you go on the boat even for a 2 min ride to sagu restaurant. We stayed in both standard room and Eco honeymoon suite and would... More

Just returned from a stay at Asalem which was a very pleasant experience overall. The hotel has many positive qualities but I would have liked to have known a couple of the negatives before my stay. Firstly the good, the location and setting of the hotel could not be any better in terms of it's beauty, seclusion and tranquility. It... More

It's an awessome place, where you can really be in contact with nature and confort simultaneously. Beatiful both on terms of nature and architecture. On top of all that, you'll also be surrounded by wonderful human beings. I love it and want to be back soon! More

Asalem is a wonderful, relaxing place to visit. The staff (Carla, Daniel, Fernanda, Ivan, and others) go out of their way to be helpful. The rooms are neat and clean, and the views are fantastic. There are lots of opportunities to experience the great outdoors via kayak, day sail, and hiking, but it's also perfectly fine to put your feet... More

The Asalem Hotel is well located outside the small village but you can always get to the village with the Hotel boat. The rooms are functional and charming with very nice ocean views. The atmosphere is very familiar and personal since there are only about 6 bungalows. The breakfast is served outside and is very good. A perfect place to... More

This is one of the most beautiful places we have traveled to. Asalem is very secluded with one of the most stunning views you ever seen. Everything from the rustic cabanas, to the perfect breakfast to dinner to the very helpful staff, we loved it all and had a magical time at Asalem and Ilha Grande! More
