Truly an immersive experience, having the tropic forest and a beach within a few minutes of each other was fantastic. All the housing is tastefully curated and the pool is a great edition to your routine. Every morning there are home made fresh exotic juices, breads and yogurts...eggs made to order. The owners are lovely and will help in anyway they can.
Lugar maravilhoso cercado de muita natureza e ao mesmo tempo pé na areia. A casa na árvore oferece uma vista deslumbrante. O café da manhã foi perfeito, com tudo preparado lá mesmo. Os anfitriões são muito simpáticos e cuida de tudo para que possamos sentir super à vontade. Com certeza retornaremos.
Foi tudo ótimo! Casa com duas suites, cozinha completa, varanda excelente, com toda a estrutura necessária!! A casa é praticamente pé na areia! A piscina, quase dentro da praia, é muito boa!! Tem ótimo restaurante a uma pequena caminha de distancia pela praia!
Incrível, as casas na árvore são exatamente como nas fotos. Momentos de paz para quem gosta de ficar em meio a natureza!!!

Limpeza do quarto estava muito caprichada, mas a limpeza das áreas comuns deixou a desejar.
Outra sugestão: colocação de itens no frigobar, não tinha nem mesmo água.
Para quem está sem carro, o acesso a vila é mais difícil por ter que pegar um trecho de estrada, mas não chega a ser distante.
Heaven on earth! Super clean and comfy vila. Thank you Ueli and Mayol you’re amazing hostes, that also make all homemade breakfast, granola, brioches and muffins, delish!
Staff are lovely, and very helpful. Can’t wait to go back to paradise!
Hotel Pé na Areia na praia de Santo André, que eh incrível, e atendimento muito bom.

Conforto e simplicidade num paraíso natural
Estrutura com casas completas, separadas, dentro de uma área de preservação ambiental, com acesso direto à praia, localizada no povoado de Santo André, o qual tem estrutura bem básica, mas alguns ótimos restaurantes. Se for cozinhar em casa, recomendo fazer a maior parte das compras em Porto Seguro ou Santa Cruz Cabrália. Tem café da manhã opcional na cafeteria em frente à piscina, valendo a pena experimentar. É um ótimo lugar para famílias, com bom custo-benefício. É um local para descanso e contemplação da natureza.
Lugar mágico! Estive no Mata Encantada, no início de janeiro de 2020. Éramos 2 casais, um amigo e dois cachorros. Alugamos uma das casas que nos comportou perfeitamente. Casa completamente equipada e extremamente confortável. A pousada está localizada na a cerca de 3 km da balsa de Santo André, antes da Vila de Santo Antônio. Fica em uma APA e praticamente não tem vizinhos. A praia é muito tranquila, quase deserta neste ponto. A pousada fica literalmente no meio de uma mata, na beirada da praia. Comandada por um casal de suíços extremamente simpáticos e atenciosos que cuidam do lugar como se fosse um filho. O café da manhã e bar da piscina ficam por conta da Mayo, que além de ser um doce faz geléias, pães, iogurtes e outras gostosuras para o café da manhã. Também cuida para que a cerveja e vinhos estejam sempre gelados e dos tira gostos na beira da piscina. A pousada possui um mirante de tirar o fôlego e algumas espreguiçadeiras na beira da praia. Tudo é extremamente bem cuidado e indicado para quem procura paz e tranquilidade. Minha única observação é em relação às camas. Poderiam ser maiores e mais confortáveis. No mais tenho somente elogios e pretendo voltar o quanto antes.
Lugar maravilhoso, integrado à natureza, muita tranquilidade, mata preservada, café da manhã muito bom com frutas frescas, pães, bolos e iogurte caseiros. Os donos são um casal super bacana, atenciosos e muito amáveis! Lugar perfeito para descansar! Eu amei e recomendo muito! Quero voltar! ❤️❤️❤️
A tranqüilidade e aconchego do local. O chalé ê muito legal, você pode ficar deitado na rede na sacada ouvindo o mar, os pássaros e a noite os grilos. O café da manhã ê muito bem servido com pão, iogurte, muffin, tapioca, omelete feitos no local pelos donos.
O lugar é incrível. Ficamos na casa da árvore com um mirante de frente para o Mar, sensacional. Os donos são Suiços e muito simpáticos, eles te atendem pessoalmente, o que faz tudo parecer ainda mais especial. Para quem quer fugir do barulho da cidade, se conectar com a natureza, é o lugar perfeito!!!
A melhor pousada, atendimento 10, ficamos na casa, que foi incrível, 2 suítes no andar superior com ar condicionado e ventilador de teto. Uma das suítes tem uma sacada top.
No andar de baixo tem um banheiro completo mais sala com Tv e cozinha completa. Na sacada tem mesa de jantar e redes pra descanso. A alguns pés tem uma piscina quentinha com uma cafeteria. Logo depois uma praia particular.
Um casal de suíços dono desta pousada que está ecologicamente correta, e que nos fez se sentir em casa.
Não perca os pratos preparados pela Dani da cafeteria.
O chalé é espaçoso em todos os ambientes, confortável, silencioso, beira da praia. Funcionários atenciosos, serviços de limpeza diário incluído, além de algumas amenidades incluídas (frutas e água).
Há redes na área externa, cozinha bem equipada. Duas suítes, uma de casal de outra com duas camas de solteiro e com espaço para um colchão extra em cada. O colchão é muito macio
