アザレム

Fantastisk view. Ligner ca 20minutters gang af en junglesti, meget eksotisk. Lækkert vand , dejlig strand. Hotellet er i den høje ende men udsigten er pengene værd. Det trænger lidt til en kærlig hånd alle steder, men udsigten er alle pengene værd. Vi så havskildpadde i morgen. Vand taxi til og fra hotellet.

Really amazinv views and staff

Hermosos lugar para relajarte y olvidarte de los problemas

If you're looking into the reviews to decide coming here or not - Please book some other nice pousada and use the rest of your money on cool activities in the Island! The view is amazing. Their kitchen is also very good. This is not worth the premium price they charge. They will charge for every little convenience (water, umbrella, transport to the island, wtc). They say their reception is available and leave you with no answer for hours (during their working hours). They will try to push very overpriced boat rides that you can get the same in the Island for 1/3 of the price. Overall, the feeling I have after staying there a couple of nights is of being scammed. Just get a nice pousada for half the price and use the money to get more out of Ilha Grande's experiences.

Amazing paradise with great staff!

Perfect stay with beautiful surroundings and genuinely nice staff. Food was amazing (lasagne is a must) and the room was perfect!

I Rate this hotel at 4.5 great views and lovely island. Service was great but there was some misunderstanding about our pickup in the city. It is a nice place to get down to basic. They advertised that they have snorkels but didn’t

Jeg og min mann bodde 7 dager på Asalem. Pasadaen er sliten, det er lav standard, og jeg hadde større forventning til miljø og atmosfære når jeg booket dette stedet. Vi manglet vann i dusj og toalett flere ganger, og det stod råtne blomster i restauranten hele uka. Stedet har en fantastisk beliggenhet, og utsikten fra rommet stunning! Personalet er søt og hyggelig, men det er lite energi der. Anbefaler ikke å være her mer enn 2 til 3 dager. Er overpriset. Finnes ikke noe Spa der heller, selv om det står her.

Utrolig flott hotell, med nydelig mat og service! 15 minutters gange til byen, 5 minutter til stranden.

Overall we were happy with our stay, however if we return to Ilha Grande we probably wont stay here again. The main reasons for this were poor communication and value for money. Regarding communication, as an example, we booked a boat pick up from the property for 10am to take us to a beach. We were told that morning that the boat will arrive between 10 and 10:20am. Despite being ready on time, the boat had left without us and we had to wait a further 45 minutes for another. Also, we were told if we wanted to be picked up Abraao town to go back to the property or vice versa, we had to WhatsApp reception. We did this one evening and got no response despite asking twice for confirmation of whether the boat was going to come. Fortunately it did, however the lack of a response was frustrating. Regarding value for money, we expected the room to be decorated nicer than it was, and also found additional charging annoying e.g. you are charged for the boat transfer into the town, per person, for each way. This was strange considering the price we were paying per night was fairly high, and the alternative was to hike 25 minutes which depending on the time of day, requires you to wade through water. Lastly, we were also Expedia VIP members so expected to recieve our free drink, however this was never mentioned and we never recieved it. On a positive note, the property was very clean, breakfast was good, and the view from the room was lovely.

Receptionist provided a great service.

If we could stay here longer, we would!! Truly look no further, this is the best hotel with the cutest rooms, perfect views, great food, and wonderful staff. With walkable paths to the beach and to the downtown area (along with private water taxis for transportation if you don’t want to walk), everything was perfect. This was hands down our favorite stop on our honeymoon. I know it will be just as special for anyone who visits!

Asalem is a great place to relax. Very friendly, great views, quiet. Problem for people that have issues with stair climbing as located on a hill and to get to rooms steep stairs have to be dealt with. Bungalows are beautiful and on 2 levels. To get to main bedroom again steep staircase. Bathroom is on lower floor so if you have to get up at night starir case awaits to get to bathroom. Besides the stairs the hotel is great. You have to take ship from Concecao 15 mins or from angra dos reis 50 mins to abraao on the island a d call hotel for boat pickup as you cannot walk to hotel with heavy luggage. The hotel boat could be better. I rate the stay as excellent as the views, the friendliness of the personnel and the hiking and beach options are really great

we felt safe here and it was a great spot with nice views. great staff and breakfast but overall, very over priced.

Best location on the island

Les facilités de l’hotel sont agréables, le personnel très serviable, la cuisine est variée et délicieuse, et la vue est splendide La mer n’est pas propice à la baignade immédiatement face à l’hôtel mais une petite plage est proche

Great place to relax and soak up the surroundings

Die Unterkunft ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen und entspricht nicht mehr den Bildern. Wir hatten nicht nur braunes Wasser, leider auch zu keinem Zeitpunkt richtig warmes / heißes Wasser. Es wird für alles eine extra Gebühr berechnet. Beispielsweise kann kann man keinen Schirm leihen, nur kaufen. Um in die Stadt zu kommen muss man das Boot für 4€ pro Person pro Strecke nehmen. Wir würden trotz der Aussicht nicht mehr hierher kommen.

Honteux !!! Hormis la vue qui est absolument magnifique, cet hôtel est une vrai arnaque. On parle ici de chambres à 200€ la nuit , donc on peut s’attendre à un minimum de prestations. Il n’en n’est rien !!!!. Les chambres basiques sont à fuir . Vieux , vétuste , usées ,rafistolées,odeur de moisie, eau chaude aléatoire . Du coup c’est vraiment trop cher!!!pour la prestation. De plus il faut savoir que l’on ne peut pas rejoindre le village à pieds ,sauf à marée basse.Donc prévoir 40rs par personne pour l’aller retour en bateau , qui est plutôt une épave flottante !!. Et le petit plus pour la fin: ils ont voulus nous facturer l’utilisation du parapluie mis à disposition dans la chambre….. Le soir , il n’y a plus personne du staff , il vaut donc mieux ne pas avoir un problème vu l’isolement de l’hôtel. Bref ilha grande oui, Asalem non et non!!

Perhaps the best hotel at Ilha Grande. Located away from Abrao. 5 min by hotel boat taxi, cost 20 BRL (4 USD) during the day hours and 40 BRL (8 USD) when it is dark, i.e. after 6pm. Walking is impossible for much of the time as the pathway is frequently flooded. Make sure you call/send whatsapp message to the reception in advance about your trips there and back. There is normally one trip every hour. The boat is quite small and at the beginning hard to identify but after a while you get used to it. Location away from Abrao is good for some if one needs a quiet secure place and a disadvantage if you need some more life around but then again using the boat helps in getting a good balance of everything. The property itself is very good, comfortable, the views are stunning. The staff members are very helpful. Regarding Ilha Grande I had a tour around some beaches, which was not bad. However if you wish to visit the best place then forget other beaches and go Lopes Mendes. Getting there is a quest but worth it: you first go by water taxi to Pouso beach (located in inner lagoon, no big waves) and then walk 20 min through the forest. One could walk all the way from Abrao but that is then few hours. The beach closer to sunset is really stunning. Overall, great experience at Ilha Grande. Thanks a lot.
