Those who walk past the entrance to Villa 15, will have no idea what a beautiful oasis awaits them beyond the simple blue and white façade. From the outside, the villa´s size is deceptive as you would not imagine it occupies a large part of a block of the historic center of Paraty. It has a sauna and a pool (a rarity in Paraty houses), making it the ideal place to enjoy a rest after a day of sightseeing or simply a lazy day at home.
You can also hire the villa´s very own schooner (at an extra cost) to explore the beautiful islands, bays and beaches around Paraty´s bay. When out on the boat, we suggest you use the villa´s beach facilities on Cotia island.
Those who know Paraty will understand how special it is to stay in the historic center. After spending a day exploring the magical coastline, it is ideal to come back to a home near the shops and restaurants of this quaint colonial town. Villa 16 offers exactly this option.
