HOTELS FOR GAYS FLORIANOPOLIS

About

Novotel Florianopolis

Novotel Florianopolis is located on Beira-Mar Norte Avenue in the heart of Florianopolis. The hotel offers views of the bay, but there is no beach directly in front of it. The area outside the hotel is more of a promenade, which is ideal for walking, jogging, or simply enjoying the waterfront scenery. You can take a pleasant stroll along the avenue, which runs along the water’s edge, providing a great way to experience the city’s coastal vibe.

If you’re looking to visit a beach, Praia de Cacupé is about a 30-minute walk from the hotel. Although it’s a smaller beach, it offers a more tranquil experience away from the busier parts of the island. For larger, more popular beaches like Praia Mole or Praia de Jurere Internacional, you’ll need to take public transportation or a taxi, as these beaches are farther from the city center.

The hotel’s central location makes it convenient for exploring nearby attractions on foot. Beiramar Shopping, a popular shopping mall, is just a 10-minute walk away. The city’s historic Public Market is also within walking distance, taking around 20 minutes to reach. If you’re interested in the local LGBTQ+ scene, several gay-friendly bars and clubs are nearby, accessible by a short walk through the city center.

Staying at Novotel Florianopolis gives you easy access to both the city and the waterfront, making it a good base for exploring Florianopolis on foot.
