Pousada das Praias was planned and built by its owners, who work in the capital and like to spend the weekend on the beaches, as this stretch of the São Paulo coast is called. The architectural project and construction were carried out by architects Leonel Toledo Barros Junior and Márcia Carvalho, who brought on board architect Caiuby Penteado, who specializes in wooden constructions, having worked with renowned designer Zanini Caldas.
