Ilha Grande is a beautiful island. If you have heavy luggage, you have to hire one of the porters because the roads are sand. It’s better to use the back road instead of the sand because there is a river between the port and the hotel. We stayed only two nights and the owner (presumably) Gerard was more than helpful with his distant sense of humour. No WiFi . No TV. Good & basic breakfast with lovely fresh fruits. Homemade yoghurt. Eggs on demand. Our room was simple with a marvelous sea view. Nice paintings on the walls. Nice size balcony with a hammock. There was no nets on the windows or on the balcony door for mosquitoes but we didn’t encounter any. There was a “safe” in the room with a very simple lock. Abraão is very small village. Every location is quite good except this one is on the beach. There are many tour companies but choosing the medium size boat is better. Beautiful bays to swim around the island.

Everything! Great location right on the beach (which is relatively rare in Abraão) - try to get a sea view room for a lovely balcony and hammock overlooking the beach. Daily maid service kept our room super clean and tidy. Delicious breakfast and very friendly staff. It is perfect.

We loved the relaxed but still professional nature of this place which is operated by a wonderful family. Gerard, the french owner is very nice, very helpful and everything one might hope for from an inn owner. :) If we come to the island we won’t look any further, but book this place again. Accommodation was great and the breakfast was beyond our expectations for such a small inn.

We had a garden room, and it was quite dark, damp and musty. The wooden fixtures in the room smell very musty. The plus side to the back rooms was that it was quieter (couldn’t hear the music from the beach), but I wonder if the rooms facing the ocean would be a little more aired out.
Gerard was very kind and welcoming. Breakfast was sufficient and the location was great!

You don’t come to Abraão to use the internet but having access when in the pousada is useful for staying in touch with friends and family. There is WiFi in the property but it is very patchy and bandwidth is clearly low. It would probably take quite a lot of effort to improve the connectivity but it would definitely add to the guest experience. With that said, a break from being online isn’t such a bad thing :)
The staff and rooms were great, exactly what you would expect and are looking for from a pousada. The Pousada is situated in great location just outside of the main area of Abraão so it’s more peaceful than pousadas closer to the centre. The laundry service was also really reasonably priced and my clothes were returned in great condition. Very much recommended to others!

The Pousada is really a few steps from the beach and you have a beautiful view and atmosphere. The breakfast was great: a lot of delicious fresh fruit. The owner was easy going and tried his best to satisfy our needs.
