Ilha Comprida gorgeous private island, surrounded by crystal-clear waters, is "the most beautiful place ever" according to visitors to this paradisaic getaway.

Conservation has preserved a quarter of this island's original rainforest. Ilha Comprida's topography perfectly accommodates a helicopter landing pad. A simple, thee-bedroom house with a stunning ocean view is nestled on the island, complete with an amply sized kitchen and a huge living room- so close, in fact, that it seemingly rests on the sea. Additionally, the island features a small dock for boats up to 150 feet in length, as well as four small beaches and a kaleidoscope of amazing plant and animal life. A well-designed septic system and rain-fed running water, as well as several reservoirs totalling 50,000 litres, keep the island well-maintained, perfectly suited to long-term residents.

Ilha Comprida is very accessible, 380 km from Sao Paulo and 150 km from Rio Di Janeiro - a 1.5-hour powerboat ride.
