What makes it special
- The square in front of the chapel is named after Rodrigo Boaventura de Freitas, known as Santinho, who helped build the chapel and looked after it for many years (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- Santinho ran the only shop in the area: he sold salt for curing fish and kerosene for oil lamps, and also served people who came from Bonete by trail or boat (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- The Professora Maria Thereza de Freitas Vidal municipal school is in the neighbourhood, and its sports court was renovated in 2017 (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- The neighbourhood court, on Avenida Governador Mário Covas Júnior, hosts events such as the Circuito Cultural, with free shows and a June-festival feel (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
What to weigh
- In 2019, the city left the sewage network for São Pedro and Ponta da Sela to the second phase of the southern works (Prefeitura de Ilhabela). Ask Sabesp whether the street of any property is already connected.
- At the 2019 participatory budget meeting, residents asked for the southern perimeter road to be resurfaced and for water catchment (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
- After the heavy rain of February 2021, São Pedro was among the neighbourhoods with limited water (Prefeitura de Ilhabela), and in an April 2025 storm fallen trunks blocked a street in the neighbourhood (Prefeitura de Ilhabela).
Who it suits
Arvita’s reading, based on the facts above.
- People who want the quiet of the far south and do not need the ferry every day.
- People who like a small community with a chapel, a school and neighbourhood events.
- Buyers willing to check sewage, water and access before closing.
