The house is located in a safe rural environment close to 5 beautiful beaches and just 8 km away from the UNESCO World Heritage town of Paraty. It's good to arrive with a rented car, but it is also possible to arrive by bus/taxi/uber and explore the area by foot. It is a peaceful retreat in middle of nature and a perfect starting point for all kind of tourism in the area.

Hi, we are Katharina, Luciano and our two son. We live since 2013 in Paraty (Rio de Janeiro). We built the guesthouse "Casa Tambor" in a paradisiacal environment. We are artists, musicians, entrepreneurs, social and cultural workers, gardeners, nature lovers, writers, creative and adventurous people dedicated to living an active life close to nature and arts. We are a friendly, funny and confident family happy to share our piece of paradise with you and welcome you to enjoy Casa Tambor!!

Casa Tambor is located in a peaceful rural area, up a steep 50m hill above sea level just 300m away from the main street where the bus stop is. Situated 8km from the UNESCO World Heritage town of Paraty and 2km away from the idyllic fishing village "Praia Grande". Within 5min by car or 30min on foot (2 km) there are 5 amazing beaches, a variety of restaurants (mostly just open during the day), natural pools and viewpoints. 5km away there is a gorgeus waterfall called "Grauna". You can reach this destination by car, bus, taxi, or on foot. The 2km distant fishing village Praia Grande has a tiny grocery shop and bakery, restaurants, fishmongers and a wonderful beach for swimming ("Prainha"). There you can charter a boat and explore the most beautiful beaches of Paraty bay or cross over in 5 min to neighbouring Island Araújo. You can also rent a canoe and paddle to isolated beaches. Just 400m away from the house there's a new good restaurant with live music.
