Fernanda was an amazing host and we really loved our stay! She was very helpful and answered all our questions, both before and during our stay. She served a great breakfast buffet and even made us extra special Brazilian Easter dishes. The room was great and had the most amazing view and a very good location. Would love to go back one day!

Even before I had arrived on Ilha Grande, Fernanda would always help me out with any questions I had regarding the island, with the boats and tours etc. She picked me up from the pier and from the first second on I felt happy - the room was filled with light and had an amazing view from the balcony with the hammock. It was very clean and towels etc were provides, which were changed on a regular basis! :) And: the breakfast - oh it was fabulous. There was fresh fruit, cakes, scrambled eggs, coffee, freshly squeezed juices, different kinds of bread, jam, cream cheese, butter, good coffee, joghurt and cereals - she even made me tapioca on the last day (delicious!). It was always enough to keep me full until dinner (food is very expensive on the island!). Thank you, Fernanda, you were an amazing host :)

We loved our stay at Encanto do pai and Aracatiba. Fernanda is a great host, you really feel at home in her suite. She is full of kindness and good recommendation to visit this part of the island and the beaches all around. It is recommended to talk with her prior to reserve (be careful not to book at Abrao that is 1h far by boat and 400 rls). Rooms have charming view to the sea and to the forest at the back. Breakfast have fresh fruit and home made cake every day. Aracatiba is a quiet and charming fisherman village of ilha grande , ideal to relax and take good time. Fernanda helped us to organize then a boat transfer directly to Paraty that was a pleasant option to stop in the paraty islands. Best restaurants tried : Seafood, Conves and Villa ara.

Owners were welcoming and helpful (for comunication we used Google translator). Comfy hammock in the terrace. Generally the accomodation is simple but you have all you need. The cleanliness was very good. Nice option was bar in room fridge for very good prices.

We loved our stay here - Fernanda is such a kind and helpful host, and her breakfasts are delicious! She helped us with getting to Araçatiba (we got the cheaper local boat for R$40, called the barco Jean Filho on Cais dos Pescadores in Angra) and then planning our hikes around the island. She was also very patient with communicating with us via google translate! We loved chatting to her in the mornings, watching the hummingbirds in the garden and sunsets from the balcony. The bread fruit was a thoughtful addition to breakfast (we asked Wesley about the tree and it appeared at breakfast the next morning). It was great having the fridge in the room (fyi food on the island is pricey - we did a food shop in Angra before getting the boat). Obrigada Fernanda e Wesley!

Beautiful accommodation, delicious breakfast. The room is very clean and confortable, with an amazing view. The place is perfect to relax. The host is very welcoming. The village & beach are very quiet. Restaurants, bars and different beaches are easily reachable by walk. Direct boat connection from Angra Dos Reis only.

A suite é impecavelmente limpa com ventilador e ar condicionado. O chuveiro é uma delícia. A vista do quarto é maravilhosa, você pode deitar na rede e ficar olhando o mar. Fernanda cuida de cada detalhe dos quartos e da casa. O café da manhã é muito completo com frutas, cereais, paes, queijo, bolo e todos os dias a Fernanda ainda fez algo especial a mais (pão de queijo, ovo mexido, tostadas...) A gente se sentiu cuidado como se estivéssemos visitando alguém da família. A praia de Aracatiba é muito boa e dá para ir caminhando pelas trilhas para as praias próximas. Foi uma visita incrível e agradecemos muito a Fernanda por esse tempo tão especial. A única coisa que conseguimos pensar depois que fomos embora é quando voltaremos!
