Pousada Maria Bonita, Brazil

Pousada Maria Bonita

Fernando de Noronha, Brazil

Fernando de Noronha is a once in a lifetime destination for most of the select few who reach the tropical island archipelago. After traveling far out into the Atlantic Ocean it’s important to feel at home here and the hospitality, design, and staff of Pousada Maria Bonita create the right ambiance for their guests to do just that.

The modern yet rustic design of the pousada features natural materials and a palette that is wholly Brazilian which seamlessly seeps into the experience of being on island time and welcomed with unbeatable hospitality. Combine this with the comfortable and spacious suites here and you have your perfect island home away from home.

OUR OPINION:

Pousada Maria Bonita is one of the nicest properties on Fernando de Noronha with super comfortable rooms, an ideal location, and personalized service. What sets this property apart from the more traditional pousada style accommodations is its contemporary design which manages to capture the island's tranquil yet vibrant atmosphere set against a neutral palette and sleek simple design.

Rooms

Pousada Maria Bonita offers 11 comfortable suites set around a grassy pool area. There are three different categories that increase in size, but all feature the same amenities. Each room is uniquely furnished in modern rustic decor and comes equipped with king beds, flat-screen TV, private balcony and air conditioning. You’ll find yourself feeling at home in any of the suites but we recommend requesting a room on the second floor to take in the island views.

Location

The pousada is tucked away in a quiet residential area on the island close to the town center of Vila dos Remedios. Just about anything you need will be found with a 10-minute walk from the pousada given the island’s small size. While some beaches are within reasonable walking distance most will require arranging a taxi or renting a buggy to visit, both options can be arranged at the front desk. The airport is just a five-minute drive away.

Food and drink

Breakfast is included in your stay and will feature the traditional Brazilian staples of fresh fruit, bread, cold cuts and cheese, coffee, and natural fruit juice. There is a small dining room but it’s best to take your breakfast on the outdoor patio.

Afternoon tea is also available but the pousada does not serve lunch or dinner.

Facilities and activities

A lovely shaded pool is available to all guests. While there is no shortage of beaches to visit on the island, the pool does offer nice respite from the sun which is often out in full force, and many beaches do not provide much in the way of shade.
