Benefits and Hotel Information

The WRTC 2006 Committee is offering a package of benefits for WRTC participants next July in Florianópolis. We understand that a trip to Brazil represents a large expense for few days in our country. We appreciate your support of our WRTC2006.

First of all, due to the good relationship we have with the owner of the Hotel Costal do Santinho, the most traditional Hotel in the area and located in a fantastic natural environment, we have been able to arrange an attractive deal with them. This allows us to use the hotel as the WRTC 2006’s Headquarters and at the same time to offer special accommodations for our honorable guests.

The Costao do Santinho normal rates are much higher than the offered ones and by far lower than any 5-Star Hotel in Florianopolis. Take a look at the site http://www.costao.com/versoes/ingles/

We are also hiring a Tourism Agency in Florianopolis to offer entertainment alternatives in the area and also tours to the most interesting spots all over Brazil, such as Amazon, Pantanal, Foz do Iguassu etc. The terms for these opportunities will be an incentive to visit some other parts of our country.
