Brisa da Mata Ecolodges
Brisa da Mata Ecolodges is nestled in Brazil's Atlantic Rainforest, a region of biodiversity where less than 8% of the original forest remains. In response to the visible impact of deforestation, Brisa da Mata Ecolodges is dedicated to education and positive action. Through meaningful guest engagement and collaboration with local communities, it aims to foster awareness and stewardship. Since 2021, Brisa da Mata Ecolodges has participated in a reforestation scheme, restoring native vegetation and contributing to the long-term resilience of the ecosystem.

Pousada Serra Verde is an Ecolodge in Brazil's Atlantic Rainforest. We are surrounded both by natures beauty and by the destruction caused by man - less than 8% of this fragile biosphere remains. We work to educate and make positive impacts through guest interaction and working with local communities. We also plan to start a replanting program this year.
