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 ##### reto m Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven Nov 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location a room with a great view of the bay ##### Steven Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Imran Nov 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fabulous location in the forest, with the village of Abraao a short boat ride away. Friendly and helpful staff with good food options on site. My only complaint was that the hot water in the shower wasn’t always hot, but that aside, the hotel and our stay were excellent. Highly recommended. ##### Imran Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Malik Sep 29, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Malik Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Malik Sep 29, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perhaps the best hotel at Ilha Grande.

The accommodation provides privacy and a quiet space. Every morning, I looked forward to waking up so that I could eat their amazing breakfast; everything was fresh: the fruits, the juices, etc. The majority of the staff were friendly and helpful. My only criticism is that the wifi did not reach our room. When we wanted to use the wifi, we would have to leave the room in order to get any decent signal. Overall we loved our stay. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85f951b3-eb2c-4da5-9591-85aed22163c4-1765928499444.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rodrigo Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam Feb 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place ##### Adam Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sonia Apr 29, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful hideaway Amazing place!

From the moment I arrived, I was thoroughly impressed with the overall experience provided by this fantastic establishment. Aslem excelled in every aspect, including cleanliness, safety measures, staff and service, as well as the impeccable property conditions. ##### juan Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hertha Nov 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We spent 4 nights at Asalem. We enjoyed our time very much. We stayed at the chalet which was spacious and has amazing views of the bay. The hotel serves the best caipirinhas in town and the food they serve is also very good. There are lots of steps to take each day so you have to be fit enough to climb those. A little boat brings you to the village and back. It’s a very special place we can highly recommend. ##### Hertha Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lawrence Mar 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The entire staff from the front desk, to the boat captains from our transfer from Rio de Janeiro to the drivers Asalem provided gifted us impeccable service. We couldn’t have chosen a better destination for our honeymoon. I will reserve any more compliments, because I want Asalem to maintain it’s peaceful atmosphere. Obrigado ##### Lawrence Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Giovanni Apr 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Giovanni ### 6/10 Okay #### Veronica Jun 23, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities We were looking forward to our stay at Asalem. I had planned this trip for months and had great expectations for this property. The place looked amazing on pictures, the location was perfect. On site we arrived late afternoon, the hostess was great and dinner was ok. The following day breakfast service was great. However our rooms did not look like in the pictures, the rooms were old, with chipped wood and cracked slabs. The worst was the wholes in the sheets and the bedding and towels were in poor shape and even with mold. The bathrooms were old and had a bad smell but most of all they were not clean. My daughter and I used our sandals to shower as we did not want to step on the shower bare foot. The floor of the rooms, the outlets, curtains, doors were all in bad shape and in urgent need of repair. My family was very disappointed and even though we had originally planned to extend our stay, we decided one night there had been enough. I am sure their newer rooms are better and that everything is great there but the pictures are not accurate to the current state, the property should show current pictures of the older units so that guests know what they are accepting when booking. Still this does not make up for the lack in higiene. ##### Veronica Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### nils ole Sep 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Uovertruffen udsigt - verdensklasse 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.

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. ##### Maria Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Rio Othon Palace](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Rio-Othon-Palace.h24526.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Rio de Janeiro Leme](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Novotel-Rio-De-Janeiro-Leme.h53295.Hotel-Information) > > [Santa Teresa Hotel Rio de Janeiro - MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Santa-Teresa-Hotel-RJ-MGallery.h2226944.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aYYC-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Fasano Rio de Janeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Hotel-Fasano-Rio-De-Janeiro.h1542064.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Gravenhurst](https://www.expedia.ca/Gravenhurst-Hotels.d8035.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [JW Marriott Hotel Rio de Janeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Hotel-Rio-De-Janeiro.h564457.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Rio Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Rio-Hotel-Resort.h10581.Hotel-Information) > > [Copacabana Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Rio de Janeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Copacabana-Palace.h7130.Hotel-Information) > > [Palmar Beach Resort and Spa Riviera Maya All-Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Azul-Beach-Resort-Riviera-Cancun.h1957350.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Leme Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Windsor-Leme-Hotel.h877312.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Hilton-Copacabana-Rio-De-Janeiro.h4100177.Hotel-Information) > > [Orla Copacabana Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Orla-Copacabana-Hotel.h889673.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Fairmont-Rio-De-Janeiro-Copacabana.h174198.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Eco Resort de Angra - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Angra-Dos-Reis-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Eco-Resort-De-Angra-All-Inclusive.h2170687.Hotel-Information) > > [Arena Copacabana Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Arena-Copacabana-Hotel.h3094577.Hotel-Information) > > [ Ritz Copacabana Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Ritz-Copacabana-Boutique-Hotel.h15491185.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Nacional Rio de Janeiro OFICIAL](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Hotel-Nacional-Rio.h42275495.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Santa Ana (SNA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sna/vancouver-to-orange-county) > > [Flights from Incheon (ICN) to Bang Phli (BKK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/icn/bkk/seoul-to-bangkok) ### Activities > [Things to do in Riviera Maya](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Riviera-Maya.d602901.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Mexico Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Mexico.d117.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Dominican Republic Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Dominican-Republic.d50.Destination-Travel-Guides)
