Pousada Kolibri — Hotel in Região Imediata de São José dos Campos

We stayed there with our family of six in two of the chalets located below the main reception and dining area. We had driven from São Paulo and just breathing the mountain air refreshes your body and mind. The owners have owned the 50 hectares (150 acres) for more than 18 years and have gradually turned it into a fantastic place for rest and relaxation. The grounds, the buildings and the rooms are immaculate. The trails on the property are also cleared and one can take many hikes without leaving the grounds.||The main building is architecturally very interesting and the trees and shrubs around it are full of hummingbirds as well as other birds. We spent several hours on both of the mornings we were there just watching the birds and enjoying the views.||The breakfasts are superb. All the cakes, marmalades and some of breads are made on their own kitchen and everything else is supplied by local producers. Friederike, the owner, personally supervises the breakfasts and most of the operations herself and the effort shows in quality of service and amenities.||It does get cold up in the mountains! We had fireplaces in our chalets and extra blankets but if possible, small room heaters would be a great help.||São Francisco Xavier itself is an interesting town. It is only 6km (4 miles) from the Pousada and has a variety of restaurants and arts and crafts stores. There are other towns in the Serra de Mantequeira that have become popular for people wanting to get away from São Paulo for a short stay, but we thought São Francisco Xavier and Pousada Kolibri was a wonderful, authentic and...

This is the best pousada I ever went in Brazil.

It’s third time I am coming.. it’s hidden in nature far away from the city and noise … it’s so worth it !! the pousada is hidden in the middle of a beautiful valley. The nature is amazing, so many beautiful species of flowers and trees. I cannot get enough of this place .

In the pousada you will find everything you need, a very good accommodation and comfortable beds but also , a Biblioteca, an art studio, a tennis court ( amazingly well maintained) many other activities ( like horse riding) a beautiful living/ resting space with a piano, a pool and many others services and hidden spots on the pousada .

One of the best features of the place, are the breakfast / food ! The owner of the house, knows her way around the kitchen! Every thing that goes out of it is succulent, fresh, organic and with vegan options. ( the owner is vegan)

I can’t recommend more this place, everything is perfect, the staff is so welcoming and nice, Staying here it’s like being part of the nature with all the good accommodations of your house. Don’t miss it !

I came to work in quiet space! Internet works very well! I would recommend this place for group of nature lover friends, artists in need of inspiration, people who needs to reconnect but also works very...

The hotel is located in a beautiful farm at São Francisco Xavier. Its chalets are confortable and nicely equiped with a fire place. The premises are lovely including a river with water falls and natural swiming pools, walking tracks with gorgeous views and tennis courts. The breakfast is wonderful and healthy with local bread, jam, cheeses , juices and fruits. On top of that, Friederick, the owner of the hotel, takes care of everything personally making your stay even more pleasurable, not to mention the nice talks we had and the great tips about restaurantes and where to go in SFX that she gave us.. I loved it and will come back soon. Thank you,...
