The Best Hotels Near Ilha de Toque Toque Eco Hotel, by the Record
-
Fourteen rooms on a hillside fifty meters above the sea, with hammocks on the deck and an agreeably unfinished beach below. This small eco-hotel sits just outside São Sebastião, a two-and-a-half-hour drive from São Paulo that the Paulistanos treat as their quiet coastal secret. The pace is resolutely unhurried: pool, hot tub, sauna, a spa by L'Occitane au Brésil, and a jungle trail for anyone who feels guilty about doing nothing.

Tucked between Atlantic rainforest and the São Paulo state coastline, this 13-room boutique hotel makes a quiet case for the stretch of Brazil that gets overlooked between Rio and São Paulo city. Rooms run from garden-view with hammock to an oceanfront penthouse with a Japanese soaking tub. The L'Occitane spa and a candlelit deck for caipirinhas take care of the rest. Adults only, two-night minimum, and somehow that all sounds like a feature.
