Built on two large rocks in the heart of the Atlantic Forest. It accommodates up to 10 people in 4 suites, with a natural pool, barbecue, pizza oven, and a wood-burning stove in a spacious outdoor area, and remote work setup with Starlink.The standard daily rate includes up to 8 guests.

Located inside of an ecological community of homes integrated into the forest, set along the Paraty–Cunha road, just 10 km from Paraty’s historic center. The property features waterfalls with private-access natural pools, as well as a rich shared infrastructure: the Ayuru space for events, a communal kitchen, agroforestry area, sauna, nature-integrated gym, forest trails, and a curated selection of experiences and therapeutic activities available for booking separately. We are immersed in a region recognized as one of the most biodiverse areas on the planet, offering a deep experience of connection, silence, and presence. As we are located in a rural and ecological setting, occasional power outages may occur. Aldeia Rizoma operates with an integrated system of solar energy, hydropower, and a generator, prioritizing essential services. During power interruptions, air conditioning is not available, and fans are provided to ensure comfort. This is part of our invitation to a more conscious stay, in harmony with nature. Here, we invite you to slow down, respect natural rhythms, and feel at home. The perfect balance between comfort, nature, and inspiring architecture.

In the mountains of Paraty, along the Paraty–Cunha Road, about 15–25 minutes from the historic town center.

Optional therapeutic, ecological, and astronomical experiences are also available. The property is part of a private gated community, offering comfort and safety immersed in nature.
