Surrounded by sparkling turquoise waters and pristine beaches, Ponta dos Ganchos Resort is a gem of a retreat on Brazil's Emerald Coast, offering visitors an unforgettable experience.
EXPERIENCE
There's a reason they call this the Emerald Coast. Surrounded by jewel-bright waters and dazzling white beaches on three sides, the 20 bungalows that make up the the Ponta do Ganchos Resort shine through the lush green vegetation.
Spend your days in dazzling sunshine enjoying a variety of activities: fishing, snorkelling, kayaking, hiking, and some of the best diving on the Brazilian coast. Take in the vivid hues of the sunset as you dine on the chefs' haute cuisine interpretations of the local dishes of Santa Catarina, made from freshly-caught seafood and local Brazilian ingredients, and sample the delicious contents of the 200-label wine cellar. For the ultimate in romance, wander over the sun-bleached wooden boards of the main bridge, or just wade across the sandbar hand-in-hand for a private candlelight dinner on the island.
Luckily, the resort caters to adults only. Don't worry, though, there are plenty of postcards to send home to the kids.
