You will be quickly overwhelmed when searching for pousadas by the number available. To differentiate themselves from the herd, David and crew really have to offer something special. They do.

Everything has been written about this place already. Lovely rooms, great location and fantastic breakfast. It is a good 30 min walk from town, but they have bicycles you can borrow - so this really isn't a problem. The hosts David and Jimena are lovely, and David in particular is so good at helping you organise your day and any... More

Beautiful & peaceful accommodation, probably the nicest place we stayed during our brazil trip! Pool area is very relaxing and the owners are so knowledgable. David gave us tips on where to go and how to get there, saving us a small fortune on tour agency fees! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Paraty & the surrounding areas!! More

We visited in November, and this was a fantastic place to stay in Paraty. It is a bit of a hike to town (20 minutes). But we rode the bikes, and walked during the day and at night with no troubles at all. It is perfectly safe and there are lots of interesting shops and other places on the way.... More
