Great staff. As soon as we arrived we got a tour of the property to make sure we didn’t miss anything. Beautiful room and view.

Total tranquility, wonderful restaurants to walk to, owners help you plan any expedition trips to Florianopolis nature, loved my stay at Refugio!

This property isn't located in the tourist area, but down the street in a neighborhood with nice houses. It's very quiet and secluded**, which is exactly what we wanted. There's also a trail that leads to a private beach. There's a really nice seafood restaurant about a half mile away but if you want to be in the thick of things or be walkable to many attractions, then I'd suggest you stay somewhere else. Breakfast is included and it was incredible - the typical Brazilian selection of cakes, cheeses, meats and eggs made to order. I'd easily stay here again. **There are two dogs on the property. They're very friendly but can bark at random times.

The property grounds were beautiful and the owner/manager was very friendly and helpful.
