Paraty is renowned for its beautifully preserved architecture, cobbled streets and colourful houses. Casa Turquesa is a beautiful boutique hotel, well-positioned to enjoy the cultural delights of this Brazilian gem of a town.

Casa Turquesa, designed by Renato Tavolaro, offers nine comfortable and beautifully decorated guest rooms and suites. From many of the balconies there are wonderful views of the bay, the famous rooftops of Paraty, the mountains and the dome of the church of Santa Rita - the town’s oldest religious building. Their breakfasts are a delicious way to start the day before heading out to see the sights. The hotel has an internal courtyard, a garden, a swimming pool equipped with jacuzzi, a bar and cellar. The main house also has a reading room and a small fireplace for cooler days in winter.

Top tip:

Don't be alarmed when you are asked to remove your shoes upon check in. You will be given your own pair of havaianas to wear in the hotel which are (thankfully) yours to keep!
