Feiticeira Guesthouse

The Feiticeira Guesthouse on Rua Dom José sits at the quieter southern stretch of Ilhabela, a car-free island off the São Paulo coast where Atlantic Forest trails drop directly to sheltered coves.

Guests have direct beach access with loungers and umbrellas included, plus an outdoor pool and sun deck for afternoons between snorkeling sessions. A shared kitchen, BBQ facilities, and a picnic area make longer stays practical without eating out every meal. Family rooms are available, and the airport shuttle removes the complication of the ferry-and-taxi transfer from São Sebastião.

Ilhabela's Feiticeira beach sits roughly 12km from the ferry terminal, and the surrounding marine park offers some of the best wreck diving on Brazil's southeastern coast.
