Tips

- We have 110 v electric power supply; you will therefore have no trouble recharging the batteries of your computer, cell phone or digital camera. Bear in mind the fact that most sockets accommodate two-pin plugs.
- The cell phone service works, although with some difficulty. However, there are pay phones.
- There is a primary health centre and an emergency service form Angra dos Reis.
- There are no chemist’s shops.
- Although it is a very safe place, it is always good to take care of your belongings.
- Car circulation is not allowed in Ilha Grande. You will thus need to walk a lot. It is a good idea to pack comfortable footwear such as trainers and sandals.
- There are no banks or cash withdrawal machines, so you will be unable to withdraw any money. However, most places, including our inn, accept credit cards.
- Remember to pack a mackintosh in your suitcase; there are occasional tropical downpours in the evening.
