Resort Fazenda São João  

Out in São Pedro, a former cattle fazenda turned resort sits at the foot of the Serra do Itaqueri. The property is close to the town center and about 197 km from São Paulo — a family-friendly, pet-friendly resort with countryside access.

This traditional fazenda—dating from the hotel conversion in 1977—spreads across 130,000 m² of woods and a lake, with pools framing mountain views. Rooms mix rustic charm with modern comfort and include air conditioning, TV, internet access, hairdryer and private bathroom.

Free Wi‑Fi and free parking, sauna and spa facilities (spa services extra), a gym/fitness center, and multiple swimming pools with mountain views. There’s a picnic area, tour desk, laundry and dry cleaning, a safe-deposit box and a kids' playroom. Pets are welcome, and weekends/holiday programming brings themed family activities.

Business center and banquet/conference facilities, plus on-site internet access to keep meetings connected.

On-site restaurant serves hearty, regional fazenda cuisine and hearty local flavors. Expect family-friendly meals that match the countryside vibe and a focus on traditional gastronomy.
