Real estate and hospitality developments in Brazil

Overview

Real estate and hospitality sectors in Brazil are seeing significant development across different market segments. In Balneário Camboriú, the municipal government has launched ‘Morar BC’, an urban operation combining public and private investment to create 8,000 affordable housing units for low- and middle-income families between 2027 and 2032. Mayor Juliana Pavan stated the project aims to ‘foster a sense of belonging within the city,’ while Secretary of Planning and Urban Development Olnear Ceccatto noted the initiative is an ‘innovative urban operation focused exclusively on housing’ following recent Master Plan revisions.

Simultaneously, the luxury hospitality market is expanding in the region. In Gramado, Club Med is developing its first ‘Exclusive Collection’ resort, expected to open in November 2027. In Balneário Camboriú, the Swiss Club is investing over R$ 800 million into a luxury complex featuring a resort with more than 200 rooms and integrated lifestyle experiences.

Luxury architectural projects are further diversifying the Balneário Camboriú skyline. The La Città project, developed by GT Home and designed by the Italian studio Pininfarina, features 52 floors. Additionally, the Auris Residenze, a ‘tree-building’ project by Grupo Fischer and architect Marco Casamonti, has been named a finalist for the Architecture Hunter Awards 2026.

In the southern coastal areas of Balneário Camboriú, specifically Estaleiro and Estaleirinho beaches, a different luxury market is emerging. Due to a local Master Plan that limits buildings to three stories, these low-density areas offer privacy and proximity to the Atlantic Forest. High-end developments like the Ená project, designed by Jayme Bernardo, are targeting investors; some units are listed for approximately R$ 33.1 million, with property values potentially exceeding R$ 100,000 per square meter.
