Client comments and reviews

Paraty is a lovely town with so much character, great art and eating. The Casa Turquesa was quite remarkable, we had a stunning room with sensational interior design, very friendly and helpful service and it was an excellent end to our holiday in Brazil. - NC (February 2017)
