Enseada is Guaruja's liveliest beach district, and several holiday homes sit within walking distance of its sands. Casa 1 Km Da Praia Enseada Com Garagem is about a kilometre from Praia Enseada, while Casa Aconchegante is a 10-minute drive away. Two high-rated options let you walk: Casa Com 3 Quartos e Lazer de Clube is steps from Enseada Beach and rated 10 by its one guest, and Casa Pe na Areia Villa is 5 minutes from the beach. For sheer space, Casa Tortuga, with seven bedrooms and a pool, is a 25-minute walk from the water.
A private pool is a common feature among Guaruja's holiday homes, and it is often what sets them apart. Villa-style properties like Casa Completa Enseada – rated 9.8 – come with a private pool and hot tub. Pet-friendly Casa Aconchegante adds a pool to its seven bedrooms and garden. For larger groups, Casa Tortuga pairs a pool with seven bedrooms, while the beachfront Casa Pe na Areia Villa has a pool steps from the sand. Pool houses with fewer frills, such as the 5-bedroom option with BBQ, are also available from around 133 USD.
If you are travelling with a dog, several Guaruja holiday homes welcome pets. Recanto Maria Flor is a pet-friendly house with a garden and patio, 3.4 km from Eden's Beach, from 100 USD. Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa is also pet-friendly, a one-bedroom house with beach access and a garden, from 34 USD. Further up the scale, Casa Aconchegante is pet-friendly and has a private pool and garden, with seven bedrooms for large families.
For true beach access, look no further than the beachfront options. Casa Pe na Areia Villa is a true beachfront villa with a private pool, 5 minutes from Praia Enseada. Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa offers beach access from its garden and is rated 9.1, with rates from 34 USD. Guaruja – Pereque, Condominio Umuarama is a 14-minute walk from Praia do Pereque and has shared beach access.
When you are travelling with a big family or a group of friends, space matters. Casa Tortuga is a seven-bedroom villa with a pool and five suites, and is rated a perfect 10. Casa Aconchegante also has seven bedrooms, a private pool and garden, and is pet-friendly. For a more modest gathering, the five-bedroom house with air conditioning and a pool is available from 133 USD, while Guaruja - Pereque's three-bedroom villa with a garden and BBQ is from 73 USD.
Staying in a holiday home need not break the bank. The most affordable option is Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa, a one-bedroom house with a garden and beach access, at just 34 USD per night. Guaruja – Pereque, Condominio Umuarama offers a three-bedroom villa with garden and BBQ from 73 USD, and Recanto Maria Flor is a pet-friendly house from 100 USD. At the upper end of the budget range, Casa 5 Quartos with pool and BBQ is listed from 133 USD, and high-rated villas like Casa Completa Enseada start at 159 USD.
Holiday homes are a natural fit for families, and several in Guaruja go beyond the basics. Casa Com 3 Quartos e Lazer de Clube is a club-style house with a pool, tennis court and kids club, right by Enseada Beach. Casa Tortuga offers a pool and plenty of space for children to run around, while Casa Aconchegante is pet-friendly with a garden and seven bedrooms, so no one is left out. For a smaller family, Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa is a cosy one-bedroom house with outdoor space and beach access.
Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa is the most budget-friendly option among the holiday homes listed here, with rates from 34 USD per night. It is a small one-bedroom house with a garden and beach access. For more space at a low price, Guaruja - Pereque, Condominio Umuarama offers a three-bedroom villa from 73 USD.
Several holiday homes are pet-friendly, including Recanto Maria Flor, which has a garden and is 3.4 km from Eden's Beach, and Casa Aconchegante, which offers a private pool and large garden. Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa also welcomes pets and is just steps from the beach.
Enseada is the most popular district because it has the liveliest beach and the widest choice of homes, from budget chalets to large villas. Pereque is quieter and best if you want a relaxed stay, while Pernambuco Beach draws surfers – Condominio Golden Sun is close to that beach and offers apartments with a pool.
Guaruja fills up fast in the Brazilian summer (December to February) and during school holidays. For the best choice, book at least two to three months ahead for the peak season. Outside those months, you can often find last-minute availability at lower prices.
Guaruja's holiday homes are a world away from its high-rise beachfront hotels. Spread across neighbourhoods like Enseada, Pereque and Pernambuco, these are self-catering houses and villas where the garden, the pool and the barbecue are the point. Many sit within a short walk or drive of the sand, and most come with the kind of space a family needs for a week, not a weekend.
What the money buys varies enormously. At the budget end, a simple chalet like Chale Brisa Do Mar Villa runs from about 34 USD a night. At the top, Casa Tortuga – a seven-bedroom villa with a pool, 25 minutes on foot from Enseada Beach – starts at 281 USD. In between are pet-friendly retreats, club-style houses and beachfront villas, all with kitchens and the freedom to live on your own schedule.
This collection suits travellers who want their own kitchen, outdoor living and enough room to spread out – especially groups and families who will use the beach as a backdrop rather than the main event. If you prefer hotel-style service with a reception desk, daily housekeeping and an on-site restaurant, look at the full range of beach hotels in Guaruja instead. For a tighter focus on the sand, browse the beachfront hotels page, and if you arrive by car, the hotels with parking page will save you the headache of finding a spot on the busy streets. Pet owners not set on a holiday home should also compare pet-friendly hotels, while those watching their budget might find better value among the cheap and budget hotels.
