Almost everything is concentrated in Vila do Abraão, the island's only real village — shops, restaurants, trailheads and boat departures. The addresses on the remote beaches can only be reached by boat: book them knowing that.
On a beach of its own, between Atlantic forest and sea, with a bar-restaurant and snorkelling trips. Reached by boat from Abraão: that is the price of quiet.
Official sitebonitoilhagrande.com→Spa, yoga and restaurant in a green setting on the edge of the village. The address for those who come to rest rather than hike all day.
Book on Bookingbooking.com→Only four suites, snorkelling gear provided, one of the best-rated addresses on the island. Its small size means booking well ahead.
Book on Bookingbooking.com→A panoramic view over the bay from the heights of the village, a rustic feel and a hydromassage tub. You have to accept the walk up on the way back from the beach.
Book on Bookingbooking.com→On the seafront, breakfast included, one of the village's long-standing addresses. Its official site was unreachable at the time of writing: go through a booking platform.
Book on Bookingbooking.com→Kayaks available and a large quiet garden, away from the bustle of the seafront without being isolated.
Book on Bookingbooking.com→The best value in the village, in a lush garden a few minutes from the landing stage.
Book on Bookingbooking.com→On the beach and right in the centre: you drop your bags as you step off the boat. Simple, well placed, cheap.
