8 best hotels with a hot tub in Florianopolis

Hotels with a hot tub in Florianopolis are a smart way to slow the pace after beach time, especially when the ocean breeze is still cool in the evenings. For a genuinely “hot tub” stay, look for properties that offer a dedicated, private or well-maintained spa-style pool, warm water that stays consistent, and facilities designed for relaxation (not just a small, temperamental fixture). They suit couples on a romantic getaway, families who want an easy post-swim routine, and travellers who prefer recovery time between exploring different beaches and viewpoints.

Where to stay depends on the vibe you want. For a lively base with easy access to lagoon scenery and dining, choose Lagoa da Conceição—Florianópolis’ social heart around the lagoon. If you’re aiming for north-island beaches and surf culture, the Santinho area is a standout: Praia do Santinho is widely praised for consistent surf waves. For a more classic beach-resort atmosphere, staying near Ingleses puts you close to long stretches of sand and plenty of local services.

In your booking choices, you can aim for comfort levels that match your budget and mood—for example, Costão do Santinho Resort (5★) suits a full-service, premium unwind, while Solar Beach Hotel (3★) and Pousada Ilha Faceira (3★) are ideal if you want something simpler without losing the appeal of spa time at the end of the day.
