Pousada Verde Natur

Top choice in Santa Catarina


Talmir, the English-speaking and world-traveling owner, has built an endlessly charming empire on Servidão Família Nunes that includes neighbors Naturezas de Floripa and Old Beach. He now oversees the five rooms here decorated with foraged international treasures. Rooms feature small gardens and carbon-neutral touches like solar-heated showers.

Two rooms also include whirlpool bathtubs. The cheapest room, Indonesia, is sold without a parking spot. Breakfast is D.I.Y.
