This was a great first stop in Brazil! There is nothing like starting your journey out in prayer and greatfulness on top of their private mountain with sugarloaf Christ the Redemeer and the other side of the city all within a turn. There are many reading nooks across the property to calm down after all your adventures. The entire was clean and the sheets even had a faint smell of bleach meaning you know you are in a good place. Even the matresses were clean. They have frozen meals for purchase if you are solo traveling this is a convenient option. The potato and meet dish was quite delicious. All the staff were a delight to be around and helpful. The ring sweet bread with the jam and cream was my favorite from breakfast but the gernola and yogurt were also pleasant. I encourage you to host a retreat here for your ladies, church, leadership trainings, employee appreciation, family reunions, or the like.
