Botanical Hotel & Spa

In the southeast of Brazil, located in the charming Vale dos Mellos, between the municipalities of Santo Antônio do Pinhal, São Bento do Sapucaí and Campos do Jordão, Botanique Hotel & Spa is located in the Serra da Mantiqueira mountains and only three hours drive from the city of Sao Paulo. It covers 1.2 million square feet and offers 20 accommodations, including suites and villas, making it an ideal destination for family getaways.

The hotel has sports facilities such as clay tennis and beach tennis courts, a spa with therapeutic pool, sauna and steam room, as well as hiking trails, bike rides and yoga classes. It also offers a menu of optional activities, including cocktail workshops, astrological readings, tarot consultations, guided meditation practices, horseback riding, and picnics.

IBITI | project

Located in the municipality of Conceição do Ibitipoca, in the Zona da Mata region of the state of Minas Gerais (also in the southeast), about four hours from Rio de Janeiro’s Galeão International Airport, Ibiti Projeto offers the most authentic rural tranquility. Due to favorable atmospheric conditions and minimal pollution, guests can enjoy the Ibiti Astros Experience, a contemplative activity that offers an immersion in the study of stars and constellations in a light and relaxed way. On moonless nights and preferably at a time when Saturn’s rings and Jupiter’s moons are visible, astrotourism guide Diego Gonçalves shares an 8-inch telescope for better observation.

One of the recommended spots for this experience is the Garnet Lookout: after climbing the mountain early in the morning, participants are greeted with a bonfire and hot chocolate. Guided by a laser beam pointing to the sky, they can see constellations and hear stories and myths about the stars and the ancestral knowledge that was crucial to navigation that explored new continents. At dawn, the group can also practice yoga before enjoying a hearty breakfast. The same experience is offered at the helipads (Engenho and Mogol) and Rancho das Areias or even in areas close to the accommodation units.

Madeira beach hotel

Madeiro Beach Hotel, in the sunny northeast, in Tibau do Sul, Rio Grande do Norte, just 1 hour and 40 minutes from the capital Natal, is located next to the world famous Pipa Beach. In addition to a coastline decorated with cliffs that overlook the sea, the region offers a number of outdoor activities such as surfing, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking and windsurfing at Praia do Amor and Praia do Madeiro, ideal spots for water sports.

Other attractions include dolphin watching, horse riding, buggy tours and boat trips. At the end of the day, the sunset at Chapadão de Pipa promises a colorful spectacle. To conclude the trip, it is recommended to enjoy the nightlife in some of the bars and restaurants that not only offer live music, but also offer exquisite cuisine with seafood and delicious drinks prepared with fruits typical of the Northeast .

Nannai Resort

Entire families, groups of friends, and solo travelers can immerse themselves in natural wonders at two Nannai hotels, one in Fernando de Noronha and the other in Muro Alto, both in Pernambuco. The easiest route to reach the Fernando de Noronha archipelago is by plane, departing from Congonhas Airport in São Paulo. As for Muro Alto, just fly to Recife, which is 50 minutes from the hotel.

Idyllic beaches with crystal clear waters are perfect for relaxing, swimming and enjoying breathtaking sunsets. At the hotels, guests can enjoy tailor-made experiences, from luaus with music, drinks and signature dishes to exclusive private dining, as well as cooking and cocktail classes. In Fernando de Noronha you can also enjoy island tours, boat tours, scuba diving, deep sea fishing and yoga classes – all designed to slow down the pace of city life and foster deep connections with nature.
