Pousada Literária

The impact of your stay:

• During your stay, you’ll experience how nature, culture and community come together in Paraty’s rich landscape. Discover the Biodiversity Observatory, where researchers study the region’s plants and wildlife – from birds and mammals to amphibians and reptiles. Pousada Literaria supports the organisation by funding field research and scholarships for local students.
• Pousada Literaria further empowers local youth by collaborating with Inspirar para o Futuro, a local initiative that empowers young people to explore culture, biodiversity and tourism through workshops and hands-on experiences.
• The hotel supports the Recyclables Cooperative of Paraty, which not only protects the local environment but also provides meaningful employment for local residents. Your stay helps support the cooperative with both financial and in-kind donations, including donating uniforms and providing support from the property’s own sustainability team.
• True to its namesake, Pousada Literaria is proud to host one of the opening events of the world-renowned annual International Literary Festival of Paraty (FLIP). The hotel remains actively involved throughout the festival by providing complimentary lodging for invited authors as well as spaces for panels and talks during the event. Through these actions, the property encourages the celebration of culture and creativity within the local community.
