The Island of Desires is a small private island in Ilha Grande Bay, in Angra dos Reis. Our challenge is to make the island sustainable, enabling it as a hospitality project where people enjoy extraordinary nature and live a transformative experience.
Living on an island is learning from its limits. Our energy comes from the sun, our water comes from rain, and everything arrives by boat. Every decision, from taking a shower to using an electrical appliance, carries weight, and this changes the way we view consumption and time.
Here you wake up surrounded by sea and forest, you see the sun rise and set every day, and you share breakfast with the birds. We are a small lodging, with only three houses, and that is why your work truly matters and is part of the project. You will see up close how an island hospitality business works, from boat logistics to sustainability management.
What we offer: accommodation on the island (guest room when there are no guests, or staff room during stays), breakfast, lunch and dinner with the team, 2 days off per week. 25 hours per week.
In your free time: swim, kayak, stand-up paddle and snorkel. On days off, you can explore Ilha Grande, Angra dos Reis and Paraty.
You will build the island's image bank: bedrooms, common areas, drone images, sunset, daily life on the island and behind-the-scenes in the kitchen. The photos will go to the listing and the website, and the videos will become reels for social media.
We look for: online portfolio and own equipment. A drone is a plus.
Delivery: edited and raw files, with a written release of usage rights.
Safety first
• Do not walk on the decks looking at your phone.
• Do not dive from the pier or from the decks into the pool: it is shallow.
• Wear footwear and pay attention to the terrain's unevenness.
• Use the provided PPE for any work with tools, paints or chemicals.
Water and energy
• The water comes from rain and is scarce: short showers, taps tightly closed, and the bucket under the shower until the water heats up.
• The energy is solar: no hair dryer, straightener, iron, electric kettle or other high-consumption appliances.
Island and sea
• Toilet paper and any object should never go in the toilet: the septic system.
• Do not throw into the sea anything that fish won't eat.
• The island's objects came from various parts of the world and are part of its history. Nothing can be taken from here.
Conviviality with guests
• During stays, discretion and respect for guests' privacy.
• Do not photograph or publish images of guests.
• Your room may change during the stay, depending on occupancy.
Teamwork
• Here we live like a house: thus, like everyone on the team, you will help wash dishes from time to time, carry shopping bags that arrive by boat and help clean the island. These tasks are part of living together and do not count toward the 25 hours per week.
• Tools go back to their place at the end of each day.
Bring: insect repellent and, if you are allergic, an anti-allergic ointment.
