塔皮拉伊的宾馆

Frank 比利时

This review is based on an assessment, taking price/quality into account. The lodge is located near an unpaved road (doable with a normal car) within the Atlantic forest, bordering a large private reserve (that is accessible). Breakfast, lunch and diner are all excellent, freshly prepared (caipirinha are among the best cocktails I ever tasted). The lodge produces home made kombucha at a very reasonable price. Lodging is in spacious and clean cabins with a sufficient number of power access to charge several devices. Staff is overall very friendly and helpful (all in Portuguese but Google translate makes it easy to communicate for foreigners). The lodge contains a clean swimming pool, a large pond and a (short) trail. For nature photography, there are plenty of opportunities (mainly birds, amphibians, reptiles), just outside the lodge are trails into the forest. All in all, we found this a no brainer if you want to be immerged in the Atlantic forest at a very reasonable price. One minor thing: the hours for the meals are pretty late (8, 14 and 20h), especially if you are birding, it would be nice to have eg coffee and something to snack available earlier (but, again, very minor issue). Overall an outstanding experience, highly recommended.
