Hostel full of soul and confort

After traveling through many countries and staying in various hostels, hotels, Airbnbs, guesthouses, friends' houses, relatives' houses, and friends of friends' houses, we realized that there was a type of accommodation missing: one that offers privacy and comfort while allowing you to meet new people. That's where the idea for Chez Zany was born - a space designed for interactions among guests and comfortable beds, spacious rooms, and bathrooms. To create the greatest sense of comfort, we eliminated the reception, bar, and anything that would bring a commercial atmosphere.

The chosen house for Santa Tereza was the home of a Spanish family who came to Brazil in the 1930s. All the decoration was done with second-hand furniture, Brazilian-made furniture, and a little touch of Scandinavian influence (hello, IKEA!) to bring that tropical hygge. Our gardens, always well-maintained, stretch from the bathroom to the outdoor areas, featuring edible plants, fruit trees, medicinal herbs, and even vegetables. All of this is to give our guests the feeling of safety and being at home.
