Casas do Mar

An eight-room beachfront pousada on Avenida Brasil, Casas do Mar places guests directly on Ilhabela's Atlantic shore, with loungers set at the waterline and an outdoor pool for when the surf runs rough.

The bar and room service cover evenings without requiring guests to leave the property, while a hot tub sits close enough to the beach that salt air is constant. The 24-hour front desk makes the property practical for arrivals off the last ferry from São Sebastião, which docks roughly two kilometres north.

Ilhabela's car-free interior trails and the Vila waterfront restaurants are both reachable within twenty minutes on foot heading south along the coastal avenue.
