I stayed at Posada Cauca with my daughter and we couldn’t have asked for a better base to enjoy Ilha Grande. The rooms are simple but among the best the island offers—comfortable, clean, and with everything you need for a relaxed stay. The shower water temperature and pressure were perfect, a small detail that makes a big difference after a day on the beach. Daily cleaning was also a real plus, especially since you can’t throw toilet paper in the toilet here—it keeps everything fresh and easy. Breakfast was excellent every morning: fresh, plentiful, and varied enough to feel special. The staff are truly what make this place shine—kind, welcoming, and attentive. Rafael, in particular, went above and beyond, helping with absolutely every request. We visited at the perfect time of year: warm, sunny days without oppressive humidity, heat, or bugs. The island itself is a world heritage site with breathtaking beaches, and the location made it easy to enjoy it all.

Honestly, nothing stood out as a problem. On the rare occasion something came up, it was handled immediately and with genuine care. One small suggestion would be to provide a place to hang wet clothes so they can dry overnight, as things tended to stay humid inside.

I think we would have struggled to find better as only a three minute walk from the main strip and everything was perfect for us, with an excellent breakfast to go with it. The rooms were big enough and very clean, the gardens were beautiful and kept immaculate, and all the staff were very welcoming, polite, and friendly. One morning I was watching humming birds while having breakfast which was amazing. We would definitely stay there again if we went back to Ilha Grande.

I love this pousada, it is a quiet and friendly environment well located at Abraao. The staff is very kind, warm and always willing to help. I stayed before and keep coming back. It is always a pleasure!

All was great. The facilities are really beautiful, a lot of green and peaceful rest areas. The room was comfortable and cozy. The staff at the reception were always kind and ready to help. It’s a great thing they offer an external bathroom so you can get a later shower on your checkout day. Highly recommended.

Just a recommendation to identify the food items at breakfast.

Nice location, friendly staff, rooms were really comfortable!

Mostly families and groups traveling together, so little to no opportunities to get to know other travelers.

Great service, clean, helpful staff.

We had a room with a water tank issue above us which made very loud noises at night! The staff were attentive but couldn’t fix it. Have to be careful which room you get as the noise woke us up several times at night!

I did a lot of reading before, and I am very happy I arrived here and chose this place for what I wanted: relaxation, cleanliness, and a base for trips. It is not far away from the main pier.. just a few minutes walking.. but you will have just enough distance from the noise - so you can sleep well during the night. The property is clean, the garden is wonderful, you can see the care and attention for the place and the guests. The room was clean, air conditioner, fan, fridge, and clean bathroom with hot water. Good wi-fi. Breakfast was sufficient, nothing extraordinary. Very good choice for first time in Ilha Grande. Be sure to plan the "volta ilha" round the island trip from the first day, in order to find free spots. Trip to Lopez Mendes is mandatory! but you can always take a boat there and go in your desired pace. Ilha Grande is a fab place to chill. Buy mosquito repellent for evenings :)

Greet breakfast, clean, nice garden with big pillows to chill on a rainy day, well-located.

Coffee at the front desk could be free :)

Can't recommend enough. Perfect location in a beautiful setting, excellent facilities and friendly staff. Everyone very willing to help and give reccommendations. Exceeded our expectations.

Nothing!

The location is superb: close to the best restaurants and bars in Abraao, but not in a busy street so we slept very well. Our room was spacious and very clean. We highly appreciated the possibility to use a bathroom and shower after check-out, it was practical since went to the beach before getting the ferry back to Angra. Staff was super friendly and helpful!

The breakfast was ok, but it could have been better, with more options and nets over the fruits to prevent flies... When we arrived, our bedroom windows were completely open, which was annoying because then we had mosquitoes in the room. The wi-fi was very slow in our room.
