Worth all the long hours it took to get there from California. When we finally arrived the driver that we reserved with the resort was right there waiting for us. After a 45 minute drive we arrived at the resort. The gate opened up and we ascended the hill to see the most gorgeous views of the water and the... more

For some reason I wasn't completely looking forward to our stay at Ponta Dos Ganchos at the end of 2008. It was planned as part of a big trip and we were staying at other hotels such as Four Seasons and The Cocacobana Palace ... and it didn't seem to have as much potential as the others. How wrong I... more

This a wonderfull hotel for a romantic getaway! There is no time for meals, you eat when you wake up or when you are hungry. The room is fantastic, the food too! It´s expensive, but if you have the money, it worth it! It´s like paradise!!! I recomend it! more

I had high expectations after reading the previous reviews and was not disappointed. For my wife and i the food was the best part of our trip, we had some unbelievable meals. We stayed for three nights which was perfect, before going to Florianopolis island for one night. In retrospect i would stay on the island for at least two... more

I just came back from a honeymoon booked through VIP Brazil (which is STRONGLY recommended -- they are an incredible travel agency, very friendly, and created an absolutely amazing trip for us) which started out in Ponta Dos Ganchos. There aren't enough superlatives to desribe how wonderful this resort is. The staff is so friendly and are the most amazing... more

Ponta dos Ganchos lives up to its expectation. The service is extremely friendly, the food is amazing and you will not leave without feeling super relaxed. It is expensive for South America, but well worth it. more

We stayed here for 6 nights and were totally spoiled. The weather is not good for six months or more in the year so be worn when you go but you really, really should! The food and service we had is out of this world and probably the best stay we have ever experienced yet. Some of the staff have... more

This is a very nice resort. I agree with other reviewers that they need to do something on the outside jacuzzi, but other than that the rooms are great. Staff is very young and helpfull but don't understand much English. They are trying though which is sweet. Food is good. Not extra special but just good. Except for the alcoholic... more

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights as the last stop on our Brazilian adventure honeymoon. It was a great place to end up as we were ready to relax and have some peace and quiet. This place has great service. Every night when we were at dinner or every morning when we were at breakfast, they went... more
