Maison Joly on Ilha
Bela
| Ilha Bela is an island
roughly 250 km South-East from Sao Paulo, covered with tropical forest
and popular among the Brazilian jet-set. Hotels on the Island tend
to attract high-end clients. Maison Joly is without any doubt the
most exclusive accommodation on the island (one of the best in Brazil!).
With just 10 rooms and located on an superb, privilaged location,
80 meters above sea level, privacy for its guests is guaranteed. All
rooms of face the sea and provide marvelous views over the island.
Each room is unique: there might be
a piano, or a fireplace; a lunette or a snooker table. In some of
them there are easels and painting material, aromatized bathrooms,
verandas with coconut trees.
The restaurant was elected as one of the best in Brazil by a national
guide called "Guia 4 Rodas", and it is headed by the owner
Junior Joly and his team of trained staff, resulting in quality
and refinement.

Hotel Unique in São
Paulo
São Paulo is Brazil's biggest city and
offers the best restaurants in South America, luxury shops in abundance
and some of the best hotels in Brazil. There is a wide choice on 5-star hotels in São Paulo, but our personal preference and one of
our clients favorites is the hotel Unique. With its bizar architecture pre-eminently
representing the spirit of São Paulo; dynamic and extravagant.
Its desing is a reference in modern architecture and originality. Uniques spacey, green copper facade alone makes this hotel unlike any other. Hotel Unique offers 95 carefully designed rooms and suites on six floors

residential area. Furthermore the hotel offers a lobby bar, cyber café,

facilities and a modern and well-equipped event centre for up to 1200 people.
The rooftop terrace
displays amazing views of the city, especially at night the views and atmosphere of the "sky-bar" are extra-ordinary and in fact shouldn't be missed by anyone visiting the city of São Paulo!
Hotel Unique is strategically situated between
the Avenida Paulista, Brazils financial heart, and São Paulo's
downtown airport Congonhas.
Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro
| Built in 1923 for the
visiting king of Belgium, this was the first luxury hotel in South
America. It has been designed by the French architect Joseph Gire,
who was inspired by two hotels, the Negresco in Nice and the Carlton
in Cannes. To this day it is Rio's most elegant accomodation. In fact the Copacabana hardly needs an introduction,
a glance through the pages of the Copacabana Palace's golden book
is enough to confirm the hotel's status among the world's great hotels.
Igor Stravinsky, Marlene Dietrich, Orson Welles, Eva Pero, Robert
De Niro, and Princess Di are just a few of the luminaries who have
stayed here. The hotel served as the set for much of the 1933 Fred
Astaire and Ginger Rogers film Flying Down to Rio.
The Hotel occupies an area of over
12.000 square meters of some of the most expensive and sought after
real estate in Brazil. The Copacabana Palace has 225 bedrooms and
suites.
