Utente ospite
8 gennaio 2024
We wanted to wait until the end of our stay here, but just a couple of days in we felt compelled to leave a review as it had been such a brilliant stay already. Let’s start with the house - the photos do not do it justice, it is impeccably designed, with beautiful furniture and exquisite taste. It is very stylish and really distinctive. I would much rather stay here than the other high-end place on the island, for instance the Wyndham Hotel. Vilatoro has a much more boutique, unique feel and for us was much more memorable than any other similar 5* hotel. It is also a little bit further out and therefore much quieter and relaxing than being on the main area / near a busy road - which is one of the most charming things about Ilhabela and really what we came for - relaxing surrounded by the beautiful wildlife and stunning views of the ocean. Then the staff/service - Fernando was just the most helpful, thoughtful, kind person you could hope to meet. Genuinely just a few examples include him helping us get a car, arranging a massage, ordering food when we felt like staying in because the house was so nice, cutting fresh beautiful flowers, suggesting nice restuarants and beaches. He even offered to pick us up at the port when we arrived late and there were no taxis. The breakfast and food offering was also really well done - it’s simple, but done excellently - the omelette is sensational, and the afternoon sponge cakes very fluffy and light. Cannot recommend enough - it vastly exceeded our expectations and was the best place we stayed at during our two weeks in Brazil. We can’t wait to visit again. Maybe we’ll also ask for interior design tips!
