Alta Colina Chalés  

In São Pedro da Serra, Nova Friburgo — a pousada tucked into Brazil’s preserved Atlantic Forest. Minutes by car from Poço Belo and São José waterfalls and close to Lumiar Aventura and Indiana Jones Falls, with the village center within walking distance.

Eight individually decorated chalés deliver a boutique, rustic-chic vibe surrounded by lush forest. Rooms have private balconies and fireplaces, plus minibars, LCD TVs, blackout curtains and designer toiletries for a calm, cozy stay.

Relax in three hot tubs, a steam room and a full spa center, or take a dip in the outdoor pool with a poolside bar. Bicycles to rent, a picnic area, free self-parking and limited-hours room service make it easy to explore or unwind.

Complimentary wireless internet (high-speed) across the property and multilingual staff help you stay connected. A roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge.

An on-site restaurant and bar/lounge serve meals and drinks, with a dedicated poolside bar for laid-back afternoons. A complimentary continental breakfast is served daily from 8:00–10:30, and limited room service is offered.
