Pros:

Le lieux est intimiste. Seulement 5 chambres c'est parfait. On est proche d'une plage à sable orange. Les chambres sont avec une belle vue et propre.
Le ponton avec les tortues ca c'est super.
Le petit dejeuner est petit et simple mais on peut avoir des œufs comme on aime.

Cons:

J'ai rien en tête. Je.crois que j'ai tout aimé.

Pros:

The deck is beautiful and the location is very nice

Cons:

We had a room without a view - just to the backside of the next little cottage. This is not what we expected when we were booking this place for quite a high price right at the waterfront.

Beautiful spot but some renovations would be needed
Pros:

Location, atmosphere and friendly staff

Cons:

The property looks tired and several items (including sockets) should be replaced. Better cleaning would be ideal and something should be done against the dump in the room

Pros:

Joli ponton où l’on peut plonger pour voir les tortues. L’accueil sympathique de Diego. Planche de paddle à disposition gratuitement.

Cons:

Nous n’avons pas choisi une bonne chambre. État vétuste. Nous recommandons plutôt l’option vue mer.

Nous sommes ravis de notre séjour au sein de cet endroit juste magnifique... Un cadre d'exception, au calme et un ponton splendide où vous pourrez voir les tortues, le plus beau spot.. pour les couchers de soleil c'est merveilleux !
La nourriture y est très bonne, le Monsieur est adorable et trouvera toujours des solutions malgré la barrière de la langue.
Quel endroit incroyable...

Idéal pour quelques jours sur Ilha Grande
Pros:

Emplacement idéal. Calme et dépaysant.
Vue de la chambre paradisiaque.
Gentillesse de Diego et son équipe qui sont très sympathiques et chaleureux.

Prendre l’apéritif sur le ponton en bois au coucher du soleil est exceptionnel.
Tortues et poissons avec nous.

Der Bereich am Wasser war sehr schön.
Die Mitarbeiter waren nett, uns wurde jederzeit geholfen. Der Ausblick aus dem Zimmer war toll.

Overall a well located and welcoming but rustic stay!
Pros:

The location and views of the ocean from Mar da Lua are lovely. We enjoyed being right on the water among palm trees and close to other restaurants and the beach at Aracatiba. The staff were also friendly and we enjoyed the breakfasts. The manager was also happy to order us a transfer on the island and give us any recommendations.
We would consider visiting again! :)

Cons:

Even though we knew it’s rustic, parts are getting quite run down. During our stay it rained and our roof started leaking water onto the bed at 6am. The WiFi also wasn’t working on the first day.
We weren’t expecting anything modern and know it’s hard maintaining buildings in a tropical climate, but a few small touch ups like a fresh coat of paint, some refreshing in the bathroom and an eye for some smaller maintenance details, could go a long way on improving the guest experience.

Pros:

El lugar es un sueño! Diego su encargado y las chicas de cocina de primera! Es una posada con pocas habitaciones todas hermosas, nosotros estuvimos en la Suite studio con vista al mar, una vista increíble ! El lugar tiene un deck increíble para tomar sol, tirarse al mar, mirar peces y tortugas y contemplar el atardecer desde sus sillones con un rico trago, el desayuno riquísimo, la comida también ! Toda el área de Araçatiba es hermosa, volvería sin dudar !

Cons:

Todo espectacular!

Prachtige plek en prachtig uitzicht en vooral het personeel en zeker Diego die het totaal geen moeite vond om al onze vragen via google translate te beantwoorden. Erg behulpzaam. Voor wie echt wilt ontspannen zeker aan te raden. Nogmaals bedankt allemaal.

Lugar perfecto
Pros:

Es un lugar increíble, con absolutamente todas las comodidades para no salir de ahí y simplemente disfrutar de la tranquilidad y paz de Aracatiba. Nuestra habitación con una vista impresionante al mar y altamente equipada fue un lujo. La comida del desayuno y el restaurante fue excelente y la atención del personal y los dueños también. Debajo del muelle del alojamiento tuvimos una mejor experiencia de snorkel que en cualquier otro tour por la isla que hayamos hecho antes, nadando con tortugas y una gran cantidad de vida marina. Volveríamos sin duda, fuimos felices acá!

Cons:

Es difícil llegar desde Abrao (isla grande), solamente encontramos la opción de hacerlo con un tour de Vuelta a la Isla que nos dejó al final en el alojamiento por un precio extra. Si estás en Rio, la mejor opción es el ferry desde Angra dos Reis directo a Aracatiba.

Local excelente embora o baixo custo-beneficio comparando com outras pousadas próximas.
Pros:

Equipe gentil e atenciosa, o quarto de uma vista muito bonita e localização era muito boa.

Cons:

Comparando com outras pousadas que havia me hospedado ali perto, não achei que a pousada tivesse atendido às minhas expectativas por conta das fotos e valores.
