0 1 2 3 4 5 6

Quinta do Bucanero is an intimate, service-orientated guesthouse built into a hillside near the beach in Praia do Rosa, one of the most beautiful and, in season, the most hip, stretches of sand in southern Brazil.

Quinta do Bucanero is an intimate, service-orientated guesthouse built into a hillside near the beach in Praia do Rosa. Its 10 apartments are all of one standard – and except for minor differences in décor, identical. All have air-con, ceiling fan, private bathroom and balcony with hammock and ocean views. Communal areas are decorated in a local rustic style with lots of wood and stone, with some exotic Asian motifs. Facilities include a restaurant/bar, an outdoor Jacuzzi with small pool, and TV/games room.

Access to the beach is through a wide, well marked (but steep) trail through lush vegetation and around a small lagoon that’s good for swimming.

The hotel is 90mins’ drive from state capital, Florianopólis with the final 20 mins along a dirt road.
