Terracota Refuge – Nature, Privacy, and Comfort in the Heart of Serra da Cantareira

Terracota Refuge is nestled in the heart of the Serra da Cantareira, in Mairiporã, a privileged area surrounded by preserved forest, offering total privacy and security.

Effortless Self Check-In
Access to the house is via self check-in with a code. Once your reservation is confirmed, you’ll receive the address on Waze and the gate code for a smooth and hassle-free arrival.

Access and Structure
The house sits on a slope and is reached by a rustic stone staircase winding through the trees. It truly feels like a treetop cabin! For convenience, we recommend bringing your belongings in backpacks, though suitcases are perfectly fine too—the staircase is short and easy to manage.

Wildlife Encounters
Get ready for magical encounters with local wildlife! Guests often spot marmosets, coatis, wild ducks, toucans, sloths, opossums, and a variety of birds and insects. Despite being deep in the forest, mosquitoes are rare due to the balanced ecosystem. Still, we provide both plug-in and spray repellents in the house for your comfort.

At Terracota Refuge, every detail is designed to offer you a peaceful, safe, and unforgettable experience.

Where I went to school: Educação Fisica
My work: A bit of everything
I moved to Serra da Cantareira in 2004, looking for a preserved and quiet place, after circling the world as a performer of Cirque du Soleil and martial artist. The place is so wonderful and so amazing to connect with nature, it must be shared. And that's why we decided to build and make the Tiny House available, and prepore the Terracotta Refuge so that more people can live this kind of experience that makes so much sense
