Santa Catarina Island, Florianópolis hotel rooms at the Independent

The best hotel ever in Florianópolis

This property isn't located in the tourist area, but down the street in a neighborhood with nice houses. It's very quiet and secluded**, which is exactly what we wanted. There's also a trail that leads to a private beach. There's a really nice seafood restaurant about a half mile away but if you want to be in the thick of things or be walkable to many attractions, then I'd suggest you stay somewhere else. Breakfast is included and it was incredible - the typical Brazilian selection of cakes,...

Lovely little pousada near (not on) the beach. You have to hike a little sandy trail to get to the beach, easily done barefoot. The breakfast was amazing and the best part of the stay. Fresh fruits and pastries, fresh squeezed juices and eggs to order along with sausages. All included. The room itself was very no frills, but who goes on vacation to sit in their room? AC- open the trap door on remote to operate. I spent two nights sleeping with the door open because I was too stupid to ask...

Clean and staff was very friendly. Definitely recommend

I stayed during the slow season. There wasn’t many people staying there. It was nice. The front desk staff super helpful. The breakfast was great! You are really catered to. It’s in perfect location. You can walk everywhere from the hotel. They make you feel like royalty.

Everything was so perfect.

we staying in mid-July and along with one other couple were the only people in the hotel. However, the staff was all there and very attentive. The rooms were clean, very modern, and relatively spacious. We had a second floor room with a view of the water, which is ideal. Not all rooms had water views. It was a very nice, small hotel. The breakfast was made-to-order and plentiful. There are many restaurants within a short walk (1 block), so lots of choices. I would definitely go back.

My favorite hotel at the downtown region, clean, fair price, good breakfast and well located. The pizza available at the lobby at night is amazing. Recommended.

excelente lugar, volveremos!!

Excelente hotel… mucho mejor que las expectativas… habitación muy limpia, muy cerca de la playa, las mejores piscinas (3 en total), servicio del personal excepcional y abundante y delicioso desayuno

Central convenient location, helpful staff, delicious breakfast buffet. Pool was closed most of the time, but had a wonderful stay.
