The best hotels in Floripa are conveniently located (not necessarily on the beach), equipped with updated comforts and ready to provide guests with outstanding amenities.
Following a growth spurt in the 1980s and 1990s, the local hotel industry has had a few notable grand openings in the large hotel segment, with the Il Campanario Villagio Resort as the most recent standout. The top hotels in Florianópolis include oldtimers which invest in renovations and stay good-looking for a rewarding stay on the Island of Magic.
Widely considered one of the top resorts for families in Brazil, Costão do Santinho Resort has a superb leisure infrastructure sure to fulfill desires in all age groups.
Located on Santinho Beach, in the northern tip of Santa Catarina Island, this five-star resort opened in 1989 has nearly 700 guest rooms and 185 acres of preserved Atlantic rainforest.
Reuse of water and reforestation are some of the resort's sustainable practices.
Wheelchair-accessible rooms available.
Amenities at Costão do Santinho include:
Jurerê Internacional, Floripa's trendiest beach, is home to the island's best summer lounges and to a couple of the poshest hotels.
Il Campanario Villagio Resort, the best new hotel in town, opened in 2009 with top-of-the-line amenities and a month later doubled its business and convention area.
With 256 apartments in two categories (available for purchase), the resort is a great option for romantic or family travel. Many of the suites have full kitchens. The décor, inspired in the villas of Portofino, Italy, is light and colorful.
Wheelchair-accessible suites available.
Some of the amenities at Il Campanario Villagio Resort are:
Upscale Beira Mar Norte (Seaside North), the most beautiful avenue in town, is where you'll find the Sofitel Florianópolis, the top choice for a sophisticated stay on the island.
The hotel opened in 2006 is one of the newest in town. It has 115 finely decorated guest rooms that wouldn't do badly near the Arc de Triomphe, with fine furnishings and high-tech comforts (not to mention lovely ocean views).
Amenities at the Sofitel Florianópolis include:
Expansive views of the ocean and the attractive Avenida Beira-Mar Norte surroundings make the guest rooms at the Majestic Palace some of the best in Florianópolis. But guests at this 2004 hotel can expect plenty of other perks, such as flat screen TVs (in all rooms), king size beds (Junior Suites and up) and hot tubs with unobstructed views of the ocean (in the Master Suites). The hotel has two Presidential Suites, on the 15th and 16th floors.
Wheelchair-accessible rooms available.
Amenities include:
The Jurerê Beach Village places you right in the epicenter of summer hubbub.
The hotel opened in 1999 hosts plenty of shows and events, but the spacious grounds afford enough peace and quiet. There are nearly 250 apartments. Some of which accommodate up to five people, which helps make the Jurerê Beach Village one of the best hotels for families in Florianópolis. Many suites have frontal or side beach views.
Wheelchair-accessible rooms available.
Amenities:
The hotel has direct access to the beach. 24-hour van service available (not included in rates).More »
Views of the bay, a friendly staff and an efficient structure in downtown Floripa make the InterCity Premium Florianópolis an attractive option for tourists and business travelers.
Amenities include:
Not only does the Blue Tree Towers Florianópolis overlook the prosperous Beira-Mar Norte Avenue and the ocean, it's also on Rua Bocaiúva, just like the Beiramar Shopping (one of the city's best malls).
Opened in 2000, the hotel has 95 guest rooms in five categories. All of them internet access, a digital safe, cable TV, a mini refrigerator and a bathtub.
Wheelchair-accessible rooms available.
Amenities at the Blue Tree Towers Florianópolis include:
Business travel is what Accor's Mercure Florianópolis Convention (formerly the Mercure Florianópolis Itacorubi) is best at. However, leisure travelers in Brazil can benefit from the Accor professinalism and the perks at this hotel on the way to highly touristic Lagoa da Conceição and top beaches such as Joaquina.
Some of the guest rooms have sofa beds for young children; cribs are available upon request. Rooms have mini refrigerators, microwave ovens, and cable TV.
Seven wheelchair-accessible rooms are available.

One of the hotel's outstanding features is that pets are allowed (inquire about rules and restrictions).More »
