Pousada Serra da Luz

Our guesthouse is located at the foot of Serra de Luminárias, where luminous points appeared. And what could they be—flying objects from space? It was the early 17th century, and there was no light yet. A place with abundant nature, always with a commitment to preservation and respect for the flora and fauna. A place that provides a real interaction with the local flora and fauna, as well as an invitation to relaxation. It is 2 km from the town (with about 5,000 inhabitants) and very close to a creek full of falls and cascades. Here a group of about 12 people works, within a spirit of friendship and solidarity.

The inn's staff are, for the most part, very simple people who came from rural activities, all very welcoming and attentive. The work environment is quite informal, and everyone contributes in the way they are able. The company is managed directly by the owner and all are treated as part of the same family.

My days at the inn were intense and pleasant, and it's a pity they were so short. I loved meeting Ailson and talking about politics; he is a pleasant and welcoming person. I really enjoyed meeting everyone at the inn, I was very well received and the girls welcomed me from the start, I left there with the feeling that I could have stayed longer. The food is very good, the accommodations as well, the work is super relaxed and the hours are respectful. I highly recommend!!! And I hope to return...

I highly recommend the inn and Alison as a host! He is an extremely understanding, flexible, attentive person with excellent conversation. The communication was excellent from start to finish, and he demonstrates total care and respect for the volunteers. It is an incredible place and certainly a wonderful experience for anyone who has the opportunity to collaborate there!

My first experience was so good that I decided to come back! They were peaceful, flexible, and pleasant days. Ailson and the whole team are committed to making us feel at home. Volunteering here is amazing, because the activities aren’t stressful and don’t have to be done in any old way. Everything happens in a light, respectful and welcoming way. It made me feel so at ease that it awakened in me the desire to return and relive this experience again, leaving me with fond memories and the friendships I made here. I recommend 😊

my experience was very good, the place is beautiful, the team is very special and everyone welcomed me very well.
Ailson is a dear, an artist, very attentive; we had sincere and deep exchanges.
the tasks are simple, general cleaning duties, the schedules are respected and I was able to enjoy the days after work.
the food is wonderful, they took care of me as a vegetarian, and it was very special to receive that.
I recommend the experience, grateful for each exchange and for every stunning view I witnessed 🙌🏼💛
