About

Hotel Real Villa Bella

Hotel Real Villa Bella sits in the cultural heart of Ilhabela, a 25-minute walk from Ilhabela Port Marina. The 4-star property wraps around a garden with a large outdoor pool, a sun terrace, and a tennis court, giving it a resort feel that's still close to the town's restaurants and shops.

Rooms are decorated with a mix of luxury and rustic touches, each with air conditioning, a mini-bar, and a flat-screen TV. Higher categories add balconies, bathtubs, or even a private sauna. The on-site restaurant and bar serve meals and cocktails, and breakfast can be brought to your room. Pets are welcome, and free parking makes it easy to explore the island by car.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Standout service — Guests consistently praise the friendly, attentive staff, with several naming reception team members who made them feel welcome from arrival.
  • Lush, resort-style grounds — A large pool surrounded by well-kept gardens, a sun terrace, and a tennis court create a relaxing, jungle-like setting that guests love.

Worth weighing

2 to weigh
  • Not directly on the best beaches — The hotel is a convenient walk from Vila's restaurants and shops, but the island's top beaches require a bit of travel.
  • General rating lags other categories — While rooms and service score above 9.5, the 'General' category sits at 8.4, suggesting some guests find aspects less polished.

“The rooms were beautifully decorated, the gardens and pool were well-kept, the food was really good, and the staff were friendly and well-trained — an overall luxury experience.”

9.4Verified guest

“Close enough to the busy Vila area, but not right next to the best beaches. The hotel has beautiful gardens, a big pool, a tennis court and a soccer field — great for staying active. Rooms are nicely decorated, some more luxurious, some more rustic. Breakfast is delicious and the staff are friendly and attentive.”

9.4Verified guest

“Staying here was a real treat. Stunning setting near beautiful beaches, top-notch service from reception staff Raquel, Daniel, and Eugenia who made me feel welcome from the start. Rooms were spacious and spotless, with air conditioning, a mini-bar, and a comfortable terrace. The in-room safe gave peace of mind, and the patio was perfect for taking in the views. Free toiletries were a nice touch.”

9.4Verified guest

“We loved being surrounded by greenery while enjoying the modern resort facilities. The staff were great, especially Raquel, Daniel, and Eugenia at reception. The pool and pool bar with Ormelio, Adriano, and Fernando's fantastic cocktails were favourites. Rooms were clean and well cared for, breakfast was excellent, and the location was convenient, close to other good restaurants.”

9.4Verified guest

“The resort had beautiful gardens and a well-maintained swimming pool. It felt like being in the middle of the jungle, which was amazing. The location was perfect, close to shops and restaurants.”

9.4Verified guest

“We enjoyed the surrounding gardens and the large pool, which was big enough to swim laps and cool off on hot days. The gardens were well-kept and created a relaxing atmosphere. The room was spacious, easily fit all our luggage, and had a great view. It was well-maintained and clean.”
