Aldebaran Pousada  

Tucked into the mountain hamlet of Visconde de Mauá, about 400 m (1,312 ft) from Vila de Maringá and roughly 15 km from Resende city center. A rustic mountain pousada with panoramic vistas and easy access to local waterfalls and trails.

Colonial-style chalets with private fireplaces, balconies and sweeping mountain views. Select rooms feature hot tubs overlooking the landscape, LCD cable TVs and mini-bars. The grounds include a flowery garden with a small lake for strolls and photos.

Soak in a hot tub with a view, unwind in the sauna and steam bath, or wander the garden by the lake. Free on-site parking and charming chalet comforts make this a laid-back mountain retreat.

Free Wi-Fi across the property and complimentary parking keep you connected and mobile while you work or explore.

Start days with a Brazilian buffet breakfast of fresh fruits, homemade breads and cakes. A variety of restaurants, bars and shops sit just a short walk up the road for evening options.
