About
Pousada Bromelias
Pousada Bromelias is a small inn on the Rio-Santos highway, surrounded by Atlantic forest. The property's ten bungalows are spaced across the grounds, with a garden view from many. The wellness centre includes a sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and massage, while outside there's an outdoor pool, sun terrace and barbecue area.
Breakfast can be served in the room, and the on-site restaurant and snack bar cover the rest of the day. The inn also has a business centre and meeting facilities, so it works for a quiet working retreat. Nearby, a waterfall is within walking distance, and the historic centre of Paraty is about a 20-minute drive.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Some low-rated categories — One unspecified category scored just 6.2, notably lower than the rest. Take this as a sign that not everything may meet the same high standard.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 22:00, so arrivals outside that window need confirmation in advance.
- Small number of rooms — With only ten rooms, availability may be limited, and the quiet, intimate feel isn't for travellers wanting a large resort vibe.
- Highway location — The property sits on the Rio-Santos highway, so there may be some road noise. Reviews don't mention it, but the address suggests it.

Waterfall: A waterfall is within walking distance of the property, as several guests noted. Perfect for a short nature walk and a refreshing dip.
