We spent 5 nights in Vila Pedra Mar. We had a fanatic time! The island is beautiful and the excursions which our host coordinated for us were fun and exciting. However, some of our best times were spent just lounging in the sun or snorkeling in the area near the compound. Vila Pedra Mar was quiet and tranquil, a stark... More

Spent 4 nights here in February 2013 and loved every minute! After a short visit to Rio Ilha Grande and the Vila Pedra Mar was just what we needed. It's a very relaxing place with three rooms which is just perfect. You can sunbathe on the jetty and take a dip in the sea to cool down or snorkel around... More

We moved here after a few nights in Rio. What a contrast. Totally chilled place!! It's small with only three rooms, you can decide what you want to do from day to day. Sit on the jetty, go for a stroll, take a boat trip (your hosts have a boat that will take you anywhere... Such as a quiet beach).... More

We had read the great reviews and we were worried this place looked to good to be true. We needn't worry! We got to Vila Pedra Mar after an eventful honeymoon. I also had a temperature due to a stomach bug so I was in desperate need to rest and relax. Vila Pedra Mar is the perfect place for this.... More

Been there last week for the week end and.......this is fantastic place to be. Just 3 suites so a max of 6 guests maybe couple more, do not know. You feel home and the family who run the business is simply amazing. We like them very well. Will definitely go back soon. If you go the week end go for... More

To Riann, Karien This is such a late review as we visited back in September but since I promised to, I’m gladly writing one now. I can’t say much more than everything that is already said by others, the entire experience – the house, the rooms, the food, the tranquillity, the charming boat – is unforgettable. I jokingly say that... More

Better late than never! We stayed in November 2011 and can't praise it highly enough! Jo and Sarie were amazing hosts and we couldn't have asked for a better holiday. Sarie's food was wonderful, some of the best we had while in Brazil. The snorkelling around the Vila is amazing, saw a variety of fish and even some sea turtles!... More

It's not very often that you encounter hospitality that is genuinely beautiful. The service you will receive from Vila Pedra Mar is second to none and your hosts will literally welcome you into their family. We generally prefer to stay at resorts rather than small boutiques, but believe me you will have a perfect balance of interaction with your new... More

From the moment we arrived in Rio, our wonderful hosts, Sarie, Jo, Riann and Kieran, did everything to make our stay just perfect. Arranging a taxi to pick us up from the airport and whizz us down to Angra for the late evening crossing in their newly acquired fast boat - we were in our exquisite room within 3 hours... More
