포우사다 라가마르(Pousada Lagamar)

The Lagamar establishment is incapable of providing the services they claim if the weather is bad. No wifi, no TV, most of the time cold water in the shower, water has dirt inside, no air condition (only cold air). Poor service & accommodation

I came to Ilha Grande to get away from the craziness of Rio and really pleased I did. Great location at Lagamar and really friendly hosts. Breakfast was lovely and more than enough food to sit and enjoy the great views for a few hours. Lodge was great. I mentioned to a friend that Lagamar was more Thailand than Thailand. Just a couple of things to note that aren’t mentioned in Lonely Planet: 1. Whilst you can get to Lagamar and back from Arbaao it’s definitely not recommended. Angra seems to be the mainland destination. 2. The local beach, which is picture perfect, only had two restaurants that I could find and I couldn’t get the rhythm of when food was being served. On reflection maybe a bit more guidance / instructions on the area when checking in would have been beneficial. It’s only a small area and I would have assumed that everyone knows everyone.

Beautiful place as if you’re right in the jungle which you are actually, the views are spectacular and Isabell is lovely with her daughter Sophia. They took great care of us. We can’t wait to come back again. The breakfast was also really great. Everything was fresh. They even baked fresh cakes, juices fruit and lots more.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Pousada Lagamar. It is located ~7 min on foot from the Flexiboat dock and the Pousada staff helps you carry your luggage if you contact them about your arrival time beforehand. All the staff is quite nice and very helpful with information and organization of boat trips to different parts of Ilha Grande, especially Isabel.The rooms at the Pousada are very nice and surrounded by the sea & forest. Breakfast is buffet-style, with a wide variety of tropical fruits, local home-made cakes, etc, and one can request scrambled eggs and all that are cooked on the spot. The tables are close to feeding spots for the nearby wildlife, which provides ample opportunities to observe up close birds, squirrels, porcurpines, marmosets and coatis while having your breakfast. we will visit the Pousada again! baltasar＆emiko

We spent 4 amazing days in Praia Vermelha. First of all, the room was very confortable, clean with an beautiful view. The breakfast was very complete and delicious. Luciana is a very good host, always there to advise us Nice activities and make the stay even better. We will come back for sure !

The location of the hostal is sensational. Beautiful view, in the middle of the forest surrounded by small animals and birds. The couple (Rose and Jorge) that manages the place is very kind, they like to help with precious tips about the trails and where to go on the island. They are always willing to help us no matter what the demand. Breakfast was very good. Theyalso have drinks, beer and sandwiches if you choose not to go out

Luciana and Isabella were so kind and welcoming. I asked Luciana to arrange a cake for my daughter's birthday and she made a homemade cake with beautiful decorations. Everyone went above and beyond for us. It is a truly welcoming place. The views from the rooms are gorgeous. Rooms are basic but have everything you need. Very remote and peaceful.

I spent several days in one of the newer rooms with a view out to the ocean and laying in the hammock on the deck was perfect. Ezequiel and Luciana are truly wonderful people, just like all the other reviewers have said. Rose, as well, who was serving breakfast and taking care of things. They all were super helpful with advice about things to do, and really it was nice just chatting with them about the island, and their lives there. Thanks again for everything!

Pousada Lagamar es el paraíso en Ilha Grande, fuimos con mi marido y mi hija de 3 años y vivimos una semana maravillosa, nos trataron como si fuéramos familia. Siempre atentos a que todos estén conformes y a gusto, Ezequiel, Luciana, Isabel y todo el equipo. No conozco mejor lugar para conectar con la naturaleza y desconectar del bullicio que Lagamar. Aún conservo en mi cabeza los sonidos de la naturaleza que ambientan día y noche. Punto aparte para las pizzas y empanadas de Pizzería Vermelha y los platos de Dolce Vita. Y los desayunos en Lagamar exquisitos y completisimos. Fuimos felices explorando esa maravillosa isla guiados por el maravilloso equipo que posee la posada de Lagamar, Dolce Vita y Cruzoe, nos explicaron al detalle cada consulta, nos recomendaron las mejores opciones para los tours, los traslados, los lugares, evidentemente aman ese lugar y lo que hacen y contagian ese amor. Sinceramente esperamos volver muy pronto.
