Pousada do Ouro

0 1 2 3 4

Charming historic guesthouse featuring a classically Brazilian mix of colonial architecture, lush foliage and bright splashes of tropical colour.

The charming Pousada do Ouro consists of two colonial buildings on either side of a quiet street in the historical heart of Paraty. Bright colour accents, rustic tiled roofs and historic architecture make this a typically Brazilian guesthouse, delightful in every way.

The simply furnished and classically styled rooms include four very large suites. There are several relaxation areas – a mix of stylish floral patterns, paintings, tropical plants and exposed stone – as well as a bar, restaurant and secluded pool with loungers, Jacuzzi and sauna.
