Ponta dos Ganchos

ROMANTIC RETREAT

Ponta dos Ganchos is a luxurious beach retreat nestled on Brazil’s southern coast. Twenty-five charming bungalows are set amongst lush vegetation, offering breathtaking views of the emerald-hued ocean. You’ll be captivated by this splendid retreat, its delicate and refined cuisine, and its ultra-romantic atmosphere. Tucked away on a private peninsula on the Emerald Coast, between the rainforest and the ocean, Ponta dos Ganchos is an exclusive resort comprising just 25 bungalows, each with a minimum floor area of 80 m². Every bungalow, with its golden wood accents, features a private terrace offering breathtaking views of the ocean. Most have a jacuzzi or a private swimming pool. Chef Luis Salvajoli takes great pride in offering a different menu every day – 100% organic – which will introduce you to the diversity of Brazilian flavours and the finest South American wines. Don’t leave Ponta dos Ganchos without having sampled the famous Santa Catarina oysters. To ensure comfort and privacy for couples, children under the age of 18 are not permitted, as the resort is, par excellence, a haven for lovers.

ETHICS

Blending seamlessly into its surroundings, Ponta dos Ganchos is committed to protecting the environment and does everything in its power to preserve it: an on-site organic vegetable garden, sourcing other produce – particularly livestock products – from local producers, building on just 8% of the estate to provide a habitat for 10,000 young trees, and creating over 90% of local employment.
