    We are a group of six girls travelling together from the UK and we had the most amazing and magical time at Bonito Paraiso. Great cocktails and very good fresh food at the restaurant and the included breakfast had lots of options and fresh eggs/ crepes cooked to order too. Lovely treehouse rooms that they cleaned so nicely everyday with very comfortable beds and mosquito nets. The owner and all the staff went out of their way to accommodate all of our needs and helped to organise our transfers door to door from the airport and also an amazing super sol full day boat tour with Instagram: sanpaulinhosupersol. They also had regular boats to the town, Abraão and helped us to organise a later boat one of the nights to party. 10/10 stay and would recommend to anyone considering this hotel. A true paradise.

    ~ Location & Beach: Just perfect. So much so, that I stayed at the beach on our doorstep every day of my stay. I walked the 30 mins in town and passed through a few beaches but this was by far the nicest. ~ Room: Bed was incredibly comfortable! ~ Food & Drinks: I had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the hotel on several occasions and all were great. Afternoon Tea was a nice touch with a variety of cakes, biscuits, teas and coffees available.

    Nothing special comes to mind. Just as an information to other travelers, rooms at the beachfront house is easily accessible without many stairs. When staying in the forest house there are quite many stairs to climb.

    Wonderful pousada located in a tranquil bay with its own beach. Humble, clean and great food, especially the afternoon tea/coffee. Bonito Paraiso is a calm place, perfect for families and couples alike. We especially appreciated the wonderful staff and the overall vibe.

    Although we will probably come back, the price is on the high end.

    The location of this pousada and the atmosphere, with all its details and care stood out. It was also much appreciated that we could use SUP's and kayaks as we were not so lucky with the weather. On grey, drizzly days, you can still kayak, so this was excellent. The breakfast and complimentary tea at 17.00 with delicious cakes was much appreciated. We also stayed for dinner in the evening which was superb. As we are a family of five, we really struggle to find family rooms in Brazil. We usually have to book two rooms. This pousada has a room that can host us all, which is very much appreciated!

    The rooms up to the forest are not extremely isolated.

    It’s the best accommodation of Paraty! It’s a sublime property on a private beach. 10 minutes from Abrao. Very good cuisine. Good cocktails. I come for many years in Ilha Grande, trust me Bonito Paraiso is unbeatable. Staff is very friendly. And the Argentinian owners are extremely welcoming and helpful. Do not hesitate a second

    Nothing - everything was perfect

    The place is located in a tropical cove with a private beach. The restaurant is outstanding and you can spend all day sipping Caipirinhas on the beach and using the hotel equipment (which is included) like Kayaks and Paddle boards. The staff are super friendly and the included breakfast was great with different varieties of Crepes made fresh for you.

    It took us a couple of trips to get used to the complimentary water taxi, in terms of location and timings, perhaps a Bonito logo on the side might help guests spot the boat in the dark!

    We had the most wonderful stay at Bonito Paraiso, everything about it exceeded our expectations. We were made to feel completely at home from the moment we arrived until it was unfortunately time to leave. The location is stunning, located on a semi-private beach around the bay from Abraão, with a dedicated water taxi available for guest use. The house and rooms are beautifully finished, creating a high-end, yet relaxed vibe you'd expect from a luxury beachfront property. The food and drinks were delicious, amongst the best we experienced in Brazil, well worth staying in for the evening. The staff were all fantastic, making sure we always had a Caipirinha in hand and helping us get the kayaks and paddle boards into the sea! They are a real credit to the owners and just another reason why you should choose Bonito!

    The owner and staff of this hotel, besides being very kind and friendly, are absolutely exceptional at hospitality and very well-trained to make your stay as comfortable, easy, and pleasant as possible. I had some special needs regarding transport which they kindly arranged. The hotel is beautiful and comfortable and the location is relatively close to Vila Abraao which makes it one of the more convenient ones as well. Very highly recommend! Thank you again for a great stay!

    See above

    It was great in many ways but not what we expected. The staff are very nice and helpful, and everything was "OK" but it was much more nature and less sophisticated than we thought when we checked on websites and photos suggested. The casas are rather rustic, but in an uninviting way. It felt expensive for the room and comfort, and overall "feel" that was not so great. We left early, but that does not mean it would not suit others. In short I feel you pay for being Ilha Grande but some of the sell-points are not necessarily here: it's not quiet when a boat comes early in the morning or leaves at night; the beach is nice but you have to love being at the beach not doing much. Meals and breakfast were very good!

    We had an amazing stay at Bonito Paraiso. The location is stunning at the beach. We stayed in both the jungle room and the beach room, both were nice. The staff is super friendly and is willing to help with any request you have. The breakfast is is very nice and the breakfast "ladies"are super helpfull is making all the nice stuff you would like. The restaurant is for sure super nice and worthwile to tatste almost everything from the menu, same for the cocktail bar. As cherry on the cake: the staff of the restaurant are gorgeous. Almost all the staff speaks English, which helps. For sure I would stay again at Bonito Paraiso.
