POUSADA HOTEL CAMINHO DAS NUVENS · SANTA CATARINA HIGHLANDS
A luxury lodge with 1,600 m² of built area above a sea of clouds
CAMINHO DAS NUVENS · SERRA CATARINENSE
An established hospitality business in the Santa Catarina Highlands —
A fully operational property with an established brand, located 120 km from Florianópolis. Stone, fine hardwood and glass architecture, suites with whirlpool baths, a panoramic restaurant seating 400 guests, and comprehensive, independent infrastructure.
Opportunities to acquire a premium hospitality property that is already built, operating and fully equipped are rare. Caminho das Nuvens, in the Santa Catarina Highlands, is one such opportunity: approximately 13 hectares in one of Brazil’s most desirable landscapes, where a sea of clouds forms just below the glass balconies.
The property features 11 houses—one in the final stages of construction—positioned throughout the grounds to ensure complete privacy for each guest, with approximately 1,600 m² of total built area. Each unit has its own distinctive character, from the Estrela suite, whose bed slides outdoors on rails beneath the open sky, to the Cascata house, with a private waterfall just 50 metres from its doorstep. Stone, glass and fine hardwood feature throughout, complemented by whirlpool baths, heating stoves, gas heating and unobstructed valley views.
At the commercial heart of the property is the 700 m² restaurant, featuring a double-glazed staircase tower, fine hardwood ceilings, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, a rooftop terrace, a 100 m² deck and an ornamental pond at the front. With capacity for 400 guests, 45 tables, parking for 200 vehicles and a porte-cochère, the venue is equipped for daily service as well as events, weddings and corporate functions.
The operation is supported by self-sufficient infrastructure: 5,080 m² of block paving, an 80,000-litre water tank, an underground central gas system, two generators, solar panels, underground fibre-optic cabling and Starlink. Additional facilities include a reception building with an adjoining kitchen, staff accommodation, a 70 m² apartment adjoining the restaurant, two maintenance containers and a helipad, placing the property within a short flight of the state capital.
The location brings together the best of both worlds: 120 km from Florianópolis, whose airport has been voted Brazil’s best three times, and approximately 30 km from Urubici, one of the country’s most established mountain tourism destinations.
An opportunity for investors seeking a premium real estate asset that is already built and operating, with planned expansion underway: an underground wine cellar and the final house are currently under construction.
