This villa is located on a coastal farm near Ilhéus. It is a 40 minute drive from Ilhéus airport and then a short drive along a dirt road to the gates of the property. You can reach the villa from the mangrove along a river or from the beach depending on the tide.
The scenery around the villa is breathtaking as it is located on a 10km stretch of deserted beach. The house is unpretentious and tastefully decorated. The owner is an artist and her colourful printed fabrics are spread around the house on cushions, pictures and other items, which gives the house a colourful, relaxed atmosphere. Every detail has been thought of in the lay out of this fabulous villa, including the large glass windows and a fantastic team.
If you can drag yourself away from the pool, or from one of the sun loungers under a coconut tree, you can walk along a footpath to a gorgeous crystal clear lake on the property. This is ideal for swimming or simply meditating on the deck overlooking the water. Whatever you choose to do, we are certain of one thing, this property is as close to paradise as you can get.
Nestled between a river and the sea on the idyllic Costa do Cacau, in a Restinga area, lies our idyllic Villa 2. From the moment you arrive—which is only possible by boat via the Una River—to the starry nights, you’ll be utterly captivated by the scenery.
Here, luxury is the privilege of being on a deserted beach in Bahia—about 7 km of completely untouched sand—where days unfold at nature’s pace, complete with visits from fishermen at the private pier, selling their fresh catch.
Immersed in this setting, the project spans a 50,000 m² plot, built with reforested wood and designed to preserve the soil and native vegetation. It’s no surprise that it received an honorable mention at the 2025 Paris Design Awards in the Green Architecture category.
The property consists of two houses, each with three suites, connected by a suspended deck and constantly caressed by a delightful breeze. Between the structures, a spacious social area fosters gatherings in complete privacy, featuring a game room, living room, and TV lounge, as well as a delightful covered veranda with a table for 24 people, a barbecue, hammocks, and a spa. A Jacuzzi, volleyball courts, and beach tennis courts complete the experience.
Finally, wooden decks and a lookout point invite you to contemplate the sunrise over the sea and the sunset over the river—watching the moon rise over the sea under a starry sky is also a spectacular sight. A unique setting, designed to help you slow down and reconnect.
