This is a pleasant beach apart-hotel where you can really be on your way feeling satiated from a full breakfast and enjoy the pool later on in the day.
This one is a little ho-hum just looking at the nondescript building that occupies the street corner, but, hey, it's only a block or two to the beach and sometimes that's all that matters.
This is a festive little place with hammocks and games and a small pool, plus a bar and free (kind of spartan) breakfast to enjoy your victuals. It's next to Garatucaia Beach and the pier to get to Ilha Grande.
