Pousada Borghetto Sant’Anna

Top choice in Rio Grande do Sul


Perched above the Vale dos Vinhedos, this cluster of romantic stone houses gives a fantastic view of the valley below. The lodgings mix rustic charm with sumptuous comfort and unobtrusive construction, right down to large portions of sedentary rock in the showers. Breakfast is simpler than expected, but the views make up for it. It's about 4km west of Bento.
