Sao Rafael Atlântico is a 5-star resort nestled along the shores of Sao Rafael Beach, offering exclusive access to wellness facilities and a sprawling spa complex. Youll be surrounded by trees and scenic views as you stay in a guestroom with direct access to the water.

There is both an outdoor and an indoor pool for you to swim in all year, with an attached hot tub and sauna for you to soak in. Invest in personal wellness by booking a massage or by visiting the hammam. If you want to be more active, you can visit the beach or sign up for a diving or fishing lesson. The front desk at Sao Rafael Atlântico stays open 24/7 to be accommodating to all of your needs.

Sao Rafael Atlântico has 149 guestrooms that come with a private balcony and a fully-stocked minibar, so you can enjoy the outside scenery in the comfort of your own room. There is also room service available upon request if you want to have personal meals delivered to you. Some of the rooms offer a view of the sea, while others look across the on-site pools.

Eat at one of the three different restaurants on the premises that offer a combination of Mediterranean and Japanese fare for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You can enjoy a breakfast buffet or a classic sit-down meal with an a la carte menu at Seven Seas, Mediterranean, or RAW. There is also a snack bar on site where you can find small bites and hot beverages to keep your energy up throughout the day.
