The on-site vegetable garden also supplies freshly grown, organic herbs and greens. For Sunday brunch, guests can taste a range of delicacies in the restaurant’s sophisticated atmosphere.

Sustainability Commitment

Sustainability is a top priority at Vila Santa Teresa. Our organic garden, composting practices, and elimination of single-use plastics are just a few of the actions that reflect our commitment to the environment. Our meliponary with native bees contributes to the preservation of plant species and maintains the biological balance of the Atlantic Forest. Additionally, Vila Santa Teresa, supports the Trilho Institute, which promotes social and human development for over 100 vulnerable families living in the Santa Teresa neighborhood.
