Traveling to Brazil in the summer of 2026 can be much more than enjoying the coast. For those who follow the growth of the Brazilian real estate market, this will also be an excellent investment opportunity.
In addition to enjoying the beaches, the climate and the culture, this period will be ideal for observing the behavior of the market, visiting developments and making decisions more safely in regions with high demand for vacation rentals, such as the coast of Santa Catarina.
Why Brazil will attract investors in 2026
As 2026 approaches, the country’s economic scenario is more stable. The expectation of continued fall in the dollar, combined with the still high real interest rates, keeps Brazil on the radar of those who want to diversify investments. The real estate sector, in particular, presents properties in tourist destinations for attractive values for those who buy with hard currency.
The country also offers legal certainty for foreigners, growing returns on vacation rentals and good appreciation projections until 2030, especially in areas with tourist appeal and urban planning.
Bombinhas and region: Leisure, appreciation and security in investment
If the goal is to combine quality of life with financial return, Bombinhas and surroundings are among the most strategic regions in the south of Brazil. The combination of modern infrastructure, environmental preservation and qualified tourism favors a growing real estate market with high liquidity.
During the summer, tourist movement allows investors to understand the demand profile, monitor the performance of neighborhoods in short-term rentals, and assess the potential return. Mariscal, Canto Grande and the Center stand out both for personal use and for profitability in the season.
Vacation rentals: Financial return and own use
Investing in vacation rental properties is an effective strategy for those looking to generate income in reais with flexibility of use. With the growing preference for exclusive accommodation, well-located units in tourist destinations usually have good occupancy in the high season and consistent appreciation over time.
