Staff is super polite and makes you feel at home. Hidden gem. Everything is simple but well maintained We got the Spa suite that is very big, with pool and private access to spa. Big terraces that makes the room feel connected to nature. Superb experience. Luana is the sweetest, helpful person! Thank you!

Really nothing. It was raining a bit, but didn't bother us.

Truly lives up to the name ‘Paraiso’/Paradise!

Gorgeous property and grounds, set on the perfect little secluded beach. Rooms and views are amazing. Restaurant and food choices are fantastic, and the staff are so attentive.

Nothing, apart from having to leave!

A wonderful and very special week.

Extraordinary Place, super nice people and service, good food, very relaxing atmosphere, absolutely exclusive meaning there is nothing around the hotel, just nature.

Brazil weather in October not only sunny, the team is super nice but not really able to speak English (just Portuguese).

Pleasant stay..due to bad conditions

The location, facilities, restaurants, view and staff

When the weather is bad (it rained the entire stay), there's nothing to do It rained heavily one night, it rained on us in our beds. When it was mentioned to the staff in charge we were met with a "Too bad". Considering all the above and the price paid, it's hard to give a good review.

10.0 / 10.0

Peace, Nature and Blue Paradise. Thank you

Everything!!! The location, the facilities and specially the staff, the food was to die for, Paraiso Azul has our hearts.

Everything was great, get some stand up boards, make the stairs from the pier longer for guests get into the water and snorkeling near the rocks.

Ruined by my partner’s food poisoning

Beautiful views

My partner got food poisoning from the only restaurant on site and was violently ill for 2 days. Perhaps it was the language barrier but staff didn’t seem concerned at all and offered nothing by way of discount

Great place for disconnecting. Peace and quiet

Nice private beach, friendly staff, good restaurant just on the premises, clean room. The facilities are nice with a pool, jacuzzi and sauna + on demand yoga lessons.

Our room had some noise from the bathroom which made it slightly difficult to sleep. Not a complaint, but if you’re traveling make sure to bring an adaptor as they don’t have one on the premises (although they were kind enough to offer to order one)

Totally relaxing stay with great snorkelling/kayaking and watching sunsets sipping cocktails

The location is lovely on a small sandy beach in the forest with a bar terrace to watch the sunsets. A short kayak takes you to a variety of other beaches including the Lagoa Azul. The snorkelling is excellent with giant starfish, sea turtles and a good selection of other colourful fish. The food is excellent with a wide selection on the menu for dinner and a great spread for breakfast. The hotel is also directly on the hiking trails heading in both directions along the coast.

The rooms a little tired overall.

Small paradise, very nice view and food. Bath room needs attention

Paradise place, great views, friendly reception lady, good and healthy food, nice private beach with free kayaks

The shower was not working, only at the end of the third day. I had to ask for repair 5 times, but every time only cold water. Also not everything in the saunas or hot pool is working well. Hopefully, they will invest in provind a good infratsructure, if they will do, I will come back

Island Living

We had a great stay, the staff are so nice and work incredibly hard, particularly Erica and Alejandro. The hotel rooms themselves are fairly rustic, but this is a remote spot on a chilled out island, not a luxe 5 star resort, so you need to come with the right expectations. The food is ok and well priced, although the portions are actually too big. The water in the bay is great for swimming and the free use of kayaks is really useful.

Lovely place to relax

Paraiso Azul Retiro is a lovely pousada, isolated from urban life to enjoy the nature of Ilha Grande. The facilities (hammocks, sunbeds, pool, sauna) are great, and rooms get a sea view. The breakfast and food at the restaurant are amazing. There are kayaks made available to access the surroundings (Bananal, Lagoa Azul).

Robinson Crusoe's island

This location is perfect for digital detox and amazing nature. Therefore we chose the location. WIFI is only available in the main house and there are no TVs in the room. And it's good like that. The staff is very lovely and helpful, starting with a warm welcome at the boat pier. The nature is just amazing. The lodge is within the tropical forest with a small beach directly at the lodge and a bigger wonderful beach 4 min by foot. They offer free kayaks which you must use to discover the other nearby small, lonely and often hidden beaches on the islands. For Yoga lovers they offer courses and have a fully equipped huge room. Everywhere you find hammocks in which you can listen to the waves, the forest and drift away.

Superb

The island is amazing, very relaxing. The food was very good but had a limited menu, to be expected when it is that isolated. The rooms were small for 3 people, but all had nice balconies with chairs and hammocks.

Three days in paradise

This place proved to be the paradise it promised to be on paper. Fantastic quiet location in the forest close to the water and incredible sea views from your room. A really well designed resort, ideal both for relaxation and for active holidays (hikig, canoeing etc.). Food is great too with a varied and heatlhy menu. Portions are very generous. Make sure you visit the islands in front which are only a short canoe trip and explore the amazing hiking trails nearby. And do not forget to bring moquito repellent!

The only things that should improved in my opinion are the maintenance of the pool/sauna area and additionally some of the staff looked really bored and unattentive. Too often you feel like a ghost, not a customer.

5.0 / 10.0

Great friendly staff, however, the hotel looks better in the pictures.

Comfortable and clean room with gorgeous views. Friendly staff. Relaxing and romantic atmosphere, we appreciated the private beach and the kayaks.

- the swimming pool advertised is disgusting, the mosaics are coming off it and the water is as dirty as a thick soup - bathrooms do not offer toiletries, bring your own shampoo or buy an expensive set from the reception - food quality is good and portions really generous, however, the menu never changes. The Pousada is really secluded and there is no other choice.

1.0 / 10.0

Avoid this place as you will be very disappointed.

The room was very dirty, the linen, pillows and bed cover has stains on them and smell very badly. The room has no working lamp, the side tables it was a just basic small chair. Fridge was broken and unsafe as the water was licking and been on the floor so I have to put towel and unpluck to not be shock by electricity. Toilet was diecasting- after doing your bits- nr2 you couldn't flash the toilet paper as it will be block the toilet so you have to put in provided bin next to. !!!!! Shower was very dirty and not much powerful at all. No safe for your belongings, and no WIFI in room at all. Towels was replaced every two days !!! The pool water was horribly dirty and it was missing tiles so outside you have a sign that you can swim under your risk. Total disaster, we should stay there 3 nights but unfortunately after one night it was more then enough. The beach is was very small and have a black sand. The sunchairs was broken and as well dirty. The reception area have a two sofas and that's all. If you allergic to dog hire please be aware that they sleeping on the sofas and leaving so much hair on it. You can walk to the other beach but no signing to help you where the road its goes, We try to find it but end of the day we give up. The other thinks that we don't like that the bar and WIFI was shut at 9pm, as the staff was leaving the island to other places/homes. No stuff to care about the guest at all. Shocking really. The kitchen food was good but nothing spectacular. Unfortunately I will not recommended this place to anyone at all. Shame as the island its beautiful. Especially when you take a bus from Rio to Angra dos Reis ( 4h as the traffic was big ) and then one hour by local boat.

Everything to be honest. Such a shame.

Disappointing

The staff and food were the saving grace of this hotel. Very kind and helpful staff, and truly delicious local home cooked food. The beach was also really nice (although furniture a little worn/limited) with lovely views.

We felt very baited and switched by this hotel. It was clear the room and facilities are in dire need of improvements and didn’t match the photos. The room itself is very bare bones- two side tables, a bed, a hanging rack, and fridge. No dresser, no bed side lights for reading, and outlets are only on the side of the room with no furniture so you’re left to charge your devices on the floor. Bathrooms have no shampoo conditioner hairdryer etc. Our room hammock was broken, lights were broken hanging from the ceiling. The sheets were paper thin and stained, as were all our towels…and there was no mattress cover protector on the bed. The sheets didn’t fit the bed so they kept sliding off and we would wake up touching the bare old mattress. These are minimum expectations we would have of even a 2-star hotel, and this one claims to be 4 star. We were really shocked with the terrible condition of the pool and hot tub, one of the big reasons we chose this resort. Half the tiles were completely missing and the water was murky and green. We did not feel safe using it. We also paid for a private boat day to explore islands (about $1000 Brazilian) and although it was beautiful, the boat itself was extremely gritty and didn’t compare to all the beautiful other boat rentals we saw people using while hopping around, but they still charged the same price as them. The boat transfer is dirty and if you miss the ONE option a day, you have to go from paying $200 Brazilian for a couple to $450 for a private transfer, so be aware of that. Lastly, our room wasn’t sealed properly. We’ve stayed at remote island hotels all over the world (vietnam, Thailand, etc) and so we know bugs happen, but there were giant cracks under all our doors. We chased cockroaches and even frogs out of our room. This is really an overpriced rustic retreat for backpackers, not a 4-star resort and this truly did not match up to any of the other amazing hotels we stayed at while in Brazil.

Exceptional experience - couldn’t recommend higher!

This hotel is perfect. Stunning views, especially in the restaurant which overlooks a private beach, particularly beautiful at sunset. The staff are exceptional - they were on hand to make our stay perfect from the moment we stepped foot on the hotel pontoon. We were particularly grateful for Luana and Yasmin who were incredibly helpful. Luana went above and beyond to make our stay special - particularly on my birthday. The rooms (we stayed in a few) were clean, individual, all with stunning views. The hotel offered complementary yoga classes - we had a private class - and these take place in a magnificent studio overlooking the sea. We also paid for a massage which was an incredible experience - highly talented masseuse and the bed was set up overlooking the sea with the sound of waves and the jungle as a backdrop. Cocktails and food both fabulous, particularly the cocktails which were made with such care by the brilliant Bruno. The hotel offers free kayaks and beach towels, and complementary water in the room - these added extras, all for free, were the finishing touch! All in all, a very special place and an absolute must visit on Ilha Grande!

Private location with a nice beach and some trails for jungle experience!

Great location with very friendly stuff! Room was very clean and we loved the private beach. You can take the trail behind the accomodation and experience a bit of jungle and a near village.They also offer kayak for free so you can explore the nearby beaches. I would say it's great value for money
