A favorite.

Pousada Kalimantan is a full service beach front resort in Ubatuba at Praia do Sapê, next door to…read morethe well known Praia da Lagoinha. Rooms are comfortable and the service is excellent, right down to chairs and umbrellas on the beach. They have three restaurants, a traditional Brazilian restaurant, a Pizzaria, and a Sushi restaurant. We've tried the traditional Brazilian and the Sushi restaurant. Both were very good and an excellent value. This is a family resort. We saw many three generation families, from grandparents to grandchildren, enjoying their time together. We found it through Hotels.com while looking for a beachfront resort in Ubatuba. It's just short of all inclusive. A Brazilian breakfast buffet is included, though other meals are added to your check based on what you order. The major drawback is the last half mile of access to the resort on a washboard road. I give them a 4.5

The small beach town of Itamambuca is my slice of paradise. One of the major reasons I love this…read moreenclave is because of the rustic but refined community of surfers that live and frequent this small neighborhood. Looking to get away for a weekend, we searched for housing rentals (of which there were basically no options for just 2 people - most made sense for a group of 4 or more), and there also weren't too many pousadas listed online - we must have found less than 5 and most of them weren't so nice. So, after the search came up empty, we took a chance on Toadas As Luas. This nice-sized hotel is located about a 15 minute walk to the beach and very near the few restaurants in the area. Home to an array of colorful birds, Todas As Luas proved to be a very well-kept retreat and a true surfer's oasis. There's an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach and a rack to stash your board overnight. I also enjoyed swinging on the hammock in our outdoor terrace at night. The morning breakfast was plentiful and the wifi was even decent enough to send out emails and stream some movies at night. Ending the night with a game of pool and foozball or a soak/sweat in the hot tub and sauna added to the fun. I definitely recommend this to couples looking to spend a relaxing weekend in jungle bliss.

Clarice, the owner, is super friendly and makes you feel welcome. The "chales" (cottages) are very clean. It was beautiful to wake up to the sound of the Tucanos (bird) and other tropical birds. At night, the view of the lights from the main land is beautiful to watch. And the stars... you can see som many stars at night! A very relaxing, fun and peaceful place to stay. And Ilhabela is also such a quaint town. Loved the experience at Le Refuge. I highly recommend it!

We were at the very top in a room overlooking the water/beach in beautiful Juqehy. No elevators, only stairs. Room was fine, nothing fancy. Our weather was outstanding in late November, zero complaints. Located about a 3 hour shuttle from São Paulo airport. We walked up and down the beach, felt safe, lots of restaurants and bars with access from the beach. Breakfast was included with our room. Lots of options. A perfect relaxing getaway.

Epic small hotel that is on the beach in beautiful Juqehy. I came in Southern Hemisphere winter,…read more on a rainy / cloudy weekend, so not very crowded. This property, and Juqehy in general, is popular with families and couples, many from nearby São Paulo. As a solo traveler on weekend excursion while working in Brazil, perfect relaxed getaway. Staff is great and very patient with my poor attempts at Portuguese. David the front desk manager speaks english and is always super helpful. The star of this show is the beautiful beach, sound of the waves, and veranda. Even on a cloudy day, this beach is beautiful. This is a sub-tropical area, similar climate to Florida keys, so it doesn't get real cold, rarely less than 60 F. While I was here it was chilly. Weird looking at coco palms wearing a jacket. Restaurant is excellent. The dinner in the pics was 5 star. So fresh and tasty. I had one meal that was not to my taste, not to say it wasn't good. What I'm getting at is the restaurant has excellent and fresh food. Not everything agrees with individual taste.

Compared to the north end, it is much more quiet and peaceful. The beaches on the south end appear to be safer due to the lack of, "Perigo" or danger signs which the north end has.

It features a small outdoor pool and many indoor and outdoor lounge areas. It is very well maintained and the staff is incredibly friendly. There is food service and an outdoor bar. The rooms are well appointed and very clean. Beach towels, beach chairs and umbrellas are available and the staff will gladly set them up for you. There are a few good restaurants in the area. The north end of the beach is a 15-20 minute walk away. There you will find shops, a supermarket and other eating establishments.
