Guest Reviews
- Cihan (8/5): Great value for that island. - Sylvio is an awesome host. Super Kind. He put a lot of love to every detail at the lobby. Great place to chill out a bit and enjoy the environment he set 🙌🏽♥️😎
- Gabriela (7/5): Good - The house and the garden and the atelier are charming. However the rooms are simple and small. Unfortunately it rained in my room (through the roof) during a heavy storm so my experience was not the best, and overall the place is slightly overpriced for what it is.i still give A good rating, However i think the pictures of this home are slightly better than reality. Having access to a coffee/tea machine would make a real difference and some water dispensers in the shared area would make it much more comfortable and cozy.
- Giulia (9/5): Wonderful stay, would go back in a heartbeat! - This place is so magical, extremely centrally located yet so peaceful and quiet. The house itself is very well curated and the rooms are spacious, clean and the beds are comfortable. 10/10 location only a 5 minutes walk to the harbour and just before the start of the hill. The host was also extremely helpful and kind. The bathroom facilities are slightly outdated (water pressure was good though) but we didn’t care at all considering what amazing value for money this place is.
- Tallulah (9/5): Superb -
- Harry (10/5): Great Stay, highly recommend - Everything Nothing
- Johanna (8/5): Beautiful place, peaceful and great - Very nice place, very kind people, and the location is perfect. Very confortable place, and cute. The only thing you miss is a little buffet where you can serve yourself with water, coffee or tea in the living room maybe.
- Hannah (10/5): Perfect - Beautiful place and room, very central location
- Akos69 (10/5): Individual art house - Individual interior, the vibe of the house, the atmosphere of the reception, beautiful garden There was not any cupboards
- Phoebe (9/5): We absolutely loved our stay with Sylvio, he was a very kind and hospitable man. The room was very comfortable and fille - The host, Sylvio was so welcoming and kind. The property itself is very unique, all open and filled with beautiful decor, which gave it a lovely vibe. The shower was a little old / poor water pressure
- Leona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Felix (7/5): Nice place but dated and overpriced - Nice room, shared area is beautiful, very central It’s a bit shoddy for the price, stayed for 4 nights but only saw a member of staff once. A bit dated
- Rhea (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ivana (9/5): Superb - The art and the paintings, staff, location, comfortable rooms, I liked everything!
- Tobias (10/5): I would not bother to search for another place if I was to return to isla grande. - Beautiful place. Genuinely friendly and helpful hosts. Comfortable room. Absolutely exceptional value.
- Alek (10/5): Artsy Oasa - Beautiful house with an open living room full of art made by Sylvio. The room was clean and quiet. Sylvio speaks English and he is very nice. Lovely and cosy place to spend the rainy days on the island.
- Daniela (8/5): Good stay! - All good, maybe a bit too pricey but it was a bank holiday weekend. I would have liked more common areas. When we left it was pouring down, it would have been nice to have a place where to make some time waiting for the boat.
- Gal (9/5): Superb - There wasn't any breakfast, that could have been nice. Staff was very nice and welcoming. Wasn't very clean, but the place was good value for money! They helped me book a trip in the islands around, and that was nice! The guy also speaks English, and this was very helpful! No soap in shower, sheets were not very clean (they were white so you could see). No breakfast, or coffee, or anything offered to the guests.
- Nitzan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hemsley (9/5): Superb - Sylvio is very welcoming and he has a nice dog.
The house itself is really beautiful, with nice spaces and artworks made by Sylvio himself. It was a quiet, relaxed stay.
Nice dog on the property.
Location was good, a short walk away from the main streets. The whole island is very safe. Nothing really.
- Marion (7/5): Good -
- Martina (9/5): Superb -
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Isabel (9/5): A beautiful oasis on the island. - The house is beautiful, a literal work of art. The room was comfortable and clean The staff was very welcoming and helpful for anything that I needed. They have free filtered water to refill your bottle When I reserved I already knew from previous reviews that there is no breakfast or coffee available but coffee at the very least would have been nice, especially since this is one of the few accommodations on the island that does not have a kitchen for you to use.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional - Sylvio has been an amazing host, accommodating all our requests. The pousada is very well located, very beautiful and has a spectacular garden.
- Rodrigo (9/5): A place full of green, very good location wise and staff was amazing. - The location, the garden outside, the staff. Either too hot or too cold inside, bathroom not great but for 3-4 days it was ok.
- Martina (9/5): Superb - Lovely house, with great art and decor. Loved it truly. no breakfast and no coffe. I believe that having also just coffe would improve the experience. Many places open late, at 9/10 am and if you want to get started early in the morning with a trek for example coffe would help!
- Vincent (10/5): spectacular hikes in the mountains and on beaches of Abrao, amazing beaches and clear water - Sylvio is a lovely person and great host, the house is incredibly beautiful, great location, loved the decoration and the vibe. We would definitely come back!!! Recommend for couples nothing to complain about :)
- Vanessa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Olivier (10/5): Exceptional -
- Valentine (8/5): Very good - location
nice looking common space staff wasn't super friendly
no breakfast and no kitchen
- Alysia (9/5): Excellent stay - Very welcoming, helpful staff. Large room set in a beautiful house.
- Pontus (8/5): Very good -
- Lautaro (10/5): highly recommended! - the place is unparalled. if you happen to be there in a rainy day, Sylvio's place is great to sit and read or simply enjoy the silence and confort of the zone. rooms are clean and comfortable, and quite close to bars and small stores. Energy is a problem all across the island. it is very likely that you have to spend a couple hours with no electricity.
- Ryan (8/5): A very friendly host on Ilha grande -
- Abigail (7/5): Not worth what we paid unfortunately - The staff are amazingly kind and helpful. The location is close to the boat but off the Main Street so it’s very safe and very quiet. The dog is super cute! I hope the below can be improved because the property is beautiful. The mattress is old and sinks heavily in the middle. The whole room smelt damp for our entire stay and the aircon didn’t work well.
- Christopher (10/5): Best Stay in Brazil! - Amazing Pousada with beautiful artwork, fascinating nature and a stunningly positive energy, also the furniture in the rooms and the smell are just making you feel the most comfortable. The best stay I had in Brazil by far, additionally very nice staff and good location. 10/10, highly recommended!
- Patrick (6/5): Fine but very dusty - Gentleman running the place was very nice, house is quaint and artwork around the place is nice to see Unfortunately alongside the general dust/ musky smell in the room there was very thick dust below the bed (if you are asthmatic would suggest avoiding) and the room was in need of a deep thorugh clean
- Amelie (9/5): Beautiful! - Everything was great. The house is a beautiful space and well located close to the super market and restaurants in Vila abraao. We were very comfortable and the room was large and the included mini fridge was helpful Nothing everything was good
- Abigail (10/5): A very posh stay - It’s beautifully decorated and very clean, the owner also seems lovely. Nothing!
- Lea (8/5): Very good - Great common area!
- Pablo (10/5): Exceptional - Very stylish. No kitchen. Looks like a museum so not very convenient to sit in the living room or eating at the bar.
- Abida (10/5): Exceptional - Good location. Super nice and friendly host.
- Diego (10/5): Paradise - The place is beautiful, the garden is amazing and all around you make the place very special. The place is very wet, so would be nice to have towels daily.
- Guy (10/5): Exceptional - From the moment I arrived until the day of departure, everything about this place exceeded my expectations.
First and foremost, I cannot speak highly enough about the host, Sylvio. He is an exceptional host who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. His warm hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine care for his guests made us feel welcome and at home from the very beginning. Sylvio's extensive knowledge of the area and his insightful recommendations for local attractions, restaurants, and activities greatly enhanced our stay. He was always available and ready to assist us, making our time in Ilha Grande truly remarkable.
The property itself is a hidden gem. Atelier Sylvio Cavalheiro offers a serene and tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The moment we stepped onto the grounds, we were captivated by the enchanting atmosphere and the meticulously designed gardens. The attention to detail in the architecture and decor of the atelier is truly remarkable. It seamlessly blends art and nature, creating a harmonious and peaceful environment.
One of the highlights of our stay was the convenient proximity to the ocean. Just a short 5-minute walk through the picturesque village led us to the crystal-clear waters of the ocean. The beach was pristine and inviting, providing the perfect setting for relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether we were lounging on the sand or taking a refreshing swim, the beauty of the surroundings never ceased to amaze us.
Furthermore, the village itself is a delightful place to explore. It has a charming and laid-back atmosphere, with friendly locals and an array of quaint shops and restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed strolling through the village, immersing ourselves in the local culture, and indulging in delicious seafood delicacies.
With its exceptional host, stunning property, and convenient location near the ocean, it offers an unrivaled experience for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty.
- Xiao (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (7/5): Nice rooms, Horrible mattress - The place is well located and has nice rooms. The mattress was the worst I’ve slept on in all my travels.
Also, the WIFI did not work at all in the room and barely in the common space.
Finally, I contacted the property a couple times during my stay and they never answered.
- Doni (10/5): Exceptional - Sylvio's place is an art museum. The most beautiful place we have stayed in.
The staff are wonderfull and there is a daily cleaning.
Best value for money We stayed in the biggest but also farest room so the wifi was very weak
- Erna (9/5): Superb -
- Cecilia (10/5): Loved it & will come back! - We had such a nice stay here! The host is very friendly, and helpful! We loved the beautiful garden and the location is close to everything but quite (what we liked). We will definitely return when in Abraão!
- Matthew (8/5): Very good -
- Rola (10/5): Beautiful space in the center of Abraao - Beautiful space by the amazing artist Sylvio we really enjoyed our stay at his studio house. The rooms are clean and spacious and the location is excellent, right in the center of Abraao. I really recommend staying there if you are visiting Ilha Grande.
- Harriet (6/5): Pleasant - Great location, close to everything in town but quieter as down a side street Our room was not very clean - lots of sand on the floor and hairs in the bathroom. No hand soap in the bathroom either. We left our bag at reception for a few hours after check out, and found out on our return that there was no shared bathroom or place we could get changed so had to do a 5 hour journey in sandy/wet clothes
- Martin (8/5): Very good -
- María (9/5): Superb -
- Stephen (5/5): a cheap & cheerful stay, but in need of a deep clean and a face lift - lovely artwork and space in the common area. up a quiet street not far from the main strip. friendly, welcoming staff. difficult to find initially, as there is no sign post outside and the directions provided are not clear.
the room and en-suite not clean enough - with build up of dust on shelves, under bed etc.
not a very comfortable bed.
shower worked, but was not great, and no soap included in the room.
- Jonny (8/5): Very good - Friendly staff It was a little hard to find as it's location doesn't match up in Google maps.
Room felt a bit damp but I imagine this is normal in such a humid climate?
