Casa do Gerson

Fernando de Noronha


One of only two pousadas right on the sand on Noronha, this basic three-room place is excellent value considering its sought-after location. Rooms are simple but comfortable with split-system air-conditioning and glass sliding doors out to the water. If hearing the waves crashing at night is more important to you than luxury or attentive service, this is your place.

The attached beach bar is a good place for a drink and also serves meals.
