Pousada Carpe Diem Ilha Grande

A pousada é literalmente pé na areia. Se você procura um lugar para relaxar, esse é o lugar. Praia mansa, águas cristalinas e ambiente agradável. Todo staff está de parabéns, as meninas da recepção, o pessoal da cozinha, o garçom e a moça da limpeza. Fizeram de tudo para nos agradar, e conseguiram. Destaque para o restaurante, possui opções variadas (vegetarianas e veganas também) e os pratos são ótimos a preço justo. Disponibilizam caiaque, máscara de mergulho, protetor solar, repelente e toalhas sem custo adicional. Excelente pousada. Obrigado pessoal! Marco e Fabiana

Todo. La atención es excelente, creo que no recuerdo un lugar con tan buena atención. Te dan caipirinhas de bienvenida (que fueron las mejores del viaje), te dan kayak, chalecos, cosas para snorkel y hasta protector solar, todo incluido en el precio de la estadía. Renata y Gabriela te asesoran y dan recomendaciones de lugares. Ni hablar de la comida, el desayuno incluido es excelente y la cena del restaurante es digna de una estrella michelin. El alojamiento está en la playa donde tenes reposeras para mirar el atardecer. Realmente fue una estadía maravillosa y si volvemos a ilha sin duda lo elegiríamos de nuevo.

La posada está en una ubicación inmejorable, y las habitaciones son muy bonitas y cómodas, los colchones son nuevos y los baños muy cómodos. Además el sector de desayuno es mirando a la playa.

- The staff was very kind and friendly. They made us feel at home. We especially thank Lucas, Fernando, Wendell and Andrea! They made everything possible to make the stay comfortable for us. They showed us around, gave us great tips, went on a kayak adventure with us. I think the staff is the biggest asset of this Pousada. We stayed at another Pousada on the same beach and we didn't feel as nearly welcome. - The team have provided (on demand) vegan breakfast and they had a few vegan dinner options. In addition, the chef made a on demand vegan dinner for us, which we really liked and appreciated it. - The location is very nice: right outside the beach. A few beaches can be accessed on foot. The furthest one is reportedly 3 hours on foot one-way. Otherwise, there is several boat companies catering to that area. - The kayaks are a big plus. - Great location to observe the wild life. They provide snorkels but I highly recommend bringing your own, which we did! - The friendly dogs are definitely a big plus! They helped us not miss our own furries kids back home! - Our stay was 10/10.

There were a few downsides. But the positives OUTWEIGH the negatives. I am just leaving them here as a feedback for the Pousada to consider for future guests. They were really minute details. - The communication between the owner, management, staff members could be improved. - Being in a touristic holiday spot, they should hire (more) English speaking staff. - Wi-Fi in our room was not working. But we saw it as an opportunity to detox. - Arriving at the beach from Angra costs 100 BRL one way + a newly introduced tax, I think 50 BRL. Perhaps, the Pousada might consider making an arrangement with the boat companies for a discount for guests. But the location is definitely worth it.
