experience Amazing brazil and southern hemisphere stargazing!
Five nights at this incredible oceanfront hotel!
Monday April 24, 2023 to Saturday April 29, 2023
We will be staying in the exquisite town of Maresias, Brazil. Maresias is an ocean town located on the east coast of Brazil which boasts incredible tropical mountains, coble stone streets, fun shops, fantastic dining, the best beaches and this beautiful oceanfront hotel!
I have been to this hotel and it is top-notch! The hotel provides chairs and umbrellas for the beach and also has servers who walk the beach and take your orders for food and drink! Local vendors also walk the beach and sell clothes, crafts and beach accessories. This oceanfront experience is worth the trip alone!
