Top choice in Ilha Grande & Vila do Abraão

LoginSave

Owners Ezequiel and Luciana have created this family-friendly pousada at beautiful Praia Vermelha on Ilha Grande's northwestern shore. It's a perfect place to kick back in nature for a few days and settle into a simpler rhythm: swimming, snorkeling, walking the nearby trails, lounging with a good book in your hammock, and enjoying dinners of freshly caught fish.

Two companies, Flexboat Natiga and Barcos da Comunidade, offer regular boat service from Angra dos Reis to Praia Vermelha; there are one to three crossings daily.
