Around 1.5 hours’ drive inland from Paraty, Fazenda Catuçaba is a true rural idyll situated amongst rolling hills with a working organic farm, rivers, lakes and expansive views from the mountains. The traditional 1850s casarão (main house) is the hotel’s centrepiece and retains its cosiness and charm. Seven rooms and three suites are available set above the casarão in three charming farmhouses, with views of the valley and forested hillsides.
