We loved Everything, about our room, the amazing and personally prepared breakfast, the hosts and all of the help they provide, it is just so special and it’s the only Pousada we will return to, the best in the Island, plus such amazing food in the evening, sea food and meat dishes to die for, you must go and stay at this special place
Nothing it was all fantastic, if I wanted to suggest something, I would say some locally sourced shampoo in a small reusable pot in the bathroom but that’s it

Absolutely fabulous 4 night stay here on half board, food was really amazing at both breakfast and dinner. Room was simply furnished but spacious with a beautiful sea view. Room was very clean and had a fridge, kettle and tea which was appreciated. Location on the beautiful beach is fantastic, with warm sea water which is crystal clear, swimming and snorkelling here was incredible. We used Caio’s kayak to go watch turtles feeding on kelp nearby which was so special. There’s plenty of great walking from the Pousada some of which is a moderate level in places. Lots of birds and butterflies around and marmosets. Caio and his Mum looked after us so well, it was like staying with family, they are just the loveliest, kindest people.
Can’t think of anything we didn’t like.

Our stay at Ponta da Buca on Praia Vermelha was amazing. The location is stunning: a small, secluded beach, very quiet and relaxing, perfect if you want to disconnect and enjoy nature.
The property is very charming and just a one-minute walk from the arrival pier, which is extremely convenient. The on-site restaurant is good, and there is also another restaurant right next door, so you have more dining options despite the remote location.
Caio and his mother are wonderful hosts: kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with great recommendations. A special highlight is the homemade açaí prepared by his mother, absolutely delicious.
Boat tours depart directly from Praia Vermelha and are beautiful. Keep in mind that the property is not close to Abraão and taxi boat transfers are not cheap, but the peace and beauty of this place make it totally worth it.
Highly recommended for a truly relaxing stay in Ilha Grande
everything was perfect!

Very friendly staff, personal treatment, small scale service, the guests truly feel at home. The restaurant is amazing. You just need to bare in mind that everything is custom made for each guest, so don't expect fast food.
Everything is perfect.

We’re so happy we chose Ponta Barca for our stay on Ilha Grande. Probably one of the best places to stay on the island—thanks to its amazing scenery, quiet surroundings, and the fact that the beach is never crowded.
The hosts were incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Their son speaks English, which made communication much easier. The food was absolutely delicious—real home-style cooking that felt like a meal made with love. Breakfasts were rich, varied, and full of local products, with something different served every day.
Our room was spacious, with a large and comfortable bed, mosquito-screened windows, and even from the rooms in the back you can still see the sea. Everything was spotless, with daily cleaning. We also appreciated the option to borrow beach chairs and umbrellas.
Getting to the accommodation was also very easy—by bus from Rio de Janeiro to Angra dos Reis, and then by the NATIGA boat directly to Ponta Barca.
This place is a solid 10/10. Everything was done with care and professionalism, and we felt truly looked after throughout our stay. We wholeheartedly recommend Ponta Barca and will definitely return on our next visit to Ilha Grande.

Really great gem. Beach was busy but still really nice. Amazing breakfast and fantastic dinners. Room very spacious and owners nice.
It can be a bit complicated to reach from Rio. Make sure you do your research on how to arrive. If solo traveling, note the food is for two and the price for one doesnt reflect half the price for one.

Wonderful hospitality. Staff were so kind and accommodating. The homemade breakfast each morning was delicious and so thoughtful. Setting up umbrellas and chairs on the beach each day was a nice touch. Only 2min walk from ferry. Room was comfortable and the view beautiful.

Caio and his Mother were very welcoming and kind. He waited at the pond to escort me to my room and helped with every piece of advice and service. The day-trips to the several destinations of the island are amazing, and there’s plenty of options for you depending also on the weather. I also enjoyed the food cooked by Caio’s mother, the delicious breakfast with tasty tapiocas and the dinners, especially the octopus with spinach is a must have!

we loved this place so much and were so sad to leave. it’s hard to know where to start. Marlucia Otávio Caio and Robson were so incredibly warm and kind and we left feeling part of the family after just 3 days. there pousada is outstanding right on the beach and the food is to die for. can’t recommend it enough.

The poussada is located on a lovely beach with great views of the bay. The staff are extremely friendly and do a great job to help you enjoy your stay. The room was really clean and the staff pay attention to all the small details (the way they fold towels, tidy your things etc). The team were always helpful to provide tips and organise excursions for the day. It is easy to organise boat trips to visit other islands.
Nothing - it is a lovely, peaceful spot for a few nights

This is a family operated inn and one really feels among family here. The hostess Marlucia is super helpful and warm, just a delightful person. She was very accommodating to all our needs and made us feel at home.
The room was big and spacious, with a beautiful view of the ocean. The breakfast had lots of tasty options.
Food at Ilha Grande is generally quite expensive, but at the restaurant here it is another level...simply not an option for us.

Nuestra experiencia en Ponta da Barca fue simplemente increíble. Lo recomendamos 100%.
La hospitalidad de Caio es destacable: siempre atento, cercano y preocupado por cada detalle para que la estadía sea perfecta. Y su mamá, Marlucia, cocina espectacular — sin duda lo mejor que probamos en toda la isla.
Las instalaciones están muy bien acondicionadas y además cuentan con kayak y juegos, lo que hace la experiencia aún más completa.
Un lugar con atención personalizada, cariño y una amabilidad que realmente marca la diferencia. ¡Volveríamos sin dudarlo!

Todo fue una hermosa experiencia. Solo algo para mejorar puede ser la ducha, ya que costaba regular el agua frió/caliente. Pero nada preocupante.
