Pousada Ocazum Ilha do Amor

Six bungalows on the Ilha do Amor sandbar in Alter do Chão, Pousada Ocazum sits steps from the freshwater beach where the Tapajós River meets a seasonal white-sand island — one of the Amazon region's most photogenic swimming spots.

The pousada runs a full wellness programme unusual for its size: yoga classes, full-body massage, and spa packages are offered on-site, while the tour desk organises bike tours, hiking, and walking routes into the surrounding cerrado-Amazon transition forest. Cultural immersion tours round out the activity list.

Alter do Chão is 34 km from Santarém's domestic airport, reached by the property's shuttle. With a 9.8 guest rating across 66 reviews, the pousada draws repeat visitors for its river access and unhurried pace.
