Special advice |

Animals: Small fruit bats live in the Atlantic coastal region and are protected by law. They sometimes roost in the roof timbers of buildings, but they are completely harmless and represent no danger. When out walking, admire the animals from a distance.

Seasons are the opposite of those in Europe. Spring: 22 September to 21 December; summer: 22 December to 21 March; autumn: 22 March to 21 June; winter: 22 June to 21 September. |

The hotel is 16 km from the city of Sao Sebastiao and 200 km from the state capital of Sao Paulo. |
