Public transport - do I need to rent a car?

Buses and taxis are available, but renting a scooter or car gives you full freedom to explore the island. We can connect you with local partners for rentals or airport transfers.

Kitchen & laundry facilities

You've got everything you need to live and cook comfortably: a fully equipped shared kitchen, and laundry facilities on-site, plus nearby laundromats.

Coworking - can I take calls & rely on good Wi-Fi?

Yes. You can take advantage of the fiber optic internet to work efficiently and make video calls. All houses have very nice workspaces, and your private room has a desk where you can work and take calls.

Book directly through our website. Payment is secure and flexible: we accept credit card, Wise, iDEAL, Apple & Google Pay or bank transfer. Once booked, you'll receive a guide with local tips and arrival info.

Moderate. Local meals are $5–8, while beach bars and trendy cafes can cost more. You'll live well for less than in most Western cities.

Supermarkets, cafes, and restaurants are within walking distance. You'll also find beach bars and small fruit stalls nearby.

What to do in the area

Surf at Barra's Beach (or Praia Mole for more advanced surfers), hike coastal trails, or visit Lagoa da Conceição for sunset drinks. Weekends are for beach hopping, caipirinhas, and slow island living.

Yes. Florianópolis is known for being one of Brazil's safest destinations. Just use normal travel sense and enjoy the relaxed island vibe.

Is there a community manager?

Yes! Our Nomadico community will organize dinners, hikes, and surf days with the group.

The home is in Barra da Lagoa, a cozy fishing village on the eastern shore of Florianópolis ("Ilha da Magia"), a subtropical island in southern Brazil known as one of the country's safest destinations.

The village sits between two beaches, Barra da Lagoa and Praia do Moçambique, with mellow waves, surf schools, other colivings and a lively nomad scene. Preserved nature surrounds the area, and the Canal da Barra da Lagoa, the Projeto TAMAR sea turtle center and seaside restaurants are close by.
