If your idea of a perfect holiday is to stay in a villa by the sea, yet in a totally private location, then this is the ideal house for you.
The villa´s location is special: it sits on a stretch of beach in Santo André village, in the south of the state of Bahia. It is the perfect house from which to enjoy a relaxing holiday away from the stresses of the outside world.
It is a recent build and includes a main house with three chalets spread around the spacious grounds. It has a beach tennis court, for those who might like an active morning of sport and a fabulous pool for those who want to spend a relaxing afternoon reading or swimming. There is also an outdoor pizza area, ideal for al fresco dinners and star gazing on clear nights.
This villa is perfectly located in a small exclusive condominium between Trancoso´s central square (the Quadrado) and Rio da Barra beach. As much as Trancoso´s beautiful beaches and old town centre might entice you away, this particular villa is hard to leave.
It is a newly built, charming, relaxed, understated and typically Bahian beach house. One of its unique features is the pool which is positioned in the centre of the house, connecting all rooms.
The villa has bright airy living areas and basically everything you might need to make the most of a relaxing, care free holiday. Another highlight of this villa is its staff who are on hand to prepare delicious meals and cocktails.
Villa 66 has views across a valley in Trancoso and is known as `Alma Ninho´ (Soul Nest) as the owner, chef Morena Leite, has made the kitchen the focal point of the house, giving it a unique gastronomic feel.
The kitchen opens onto a charming sitting room where everyone congregates during the day. From breakfast in the refreshing breeze to pizza nights under starry skies, this is the place to come and relax and absorb the laid-back Bahian lifestyle. As befits a villa owned by a chef, all the menu choices have been picked by the owner, who has been the chef at one of the best and most famous restaurants in Trancoso, Capim Santo, for many years.
Four en-suite bedrooms, a pool, a sauna and plenty of good vibes will ensure total relaxation. All this is on the doorstep of Trancoso´s famous central square, the Quadrado, where guests will enjoy balmy evenings wandering around the shops and restaurants of this unique corner of Bahia.
Much more than just a house, Villa 70 is a true declaration of love for the exuberant nature of Trancoso. Its location helps explain this: newly built, the property occupies a plot of 800,000 square meters, completely immersed in the forest and very well preserved.
The arrival, worthy of a movie, is impressive and makes it clear that this is a different experience in Trancoso, one that is fully dedicated to the greenery. And here, it’s worth mentioning: all the trees, as well as the various species of monkeys and birds, have been cataloged to honor such a special setting. There is also an apiary where some species of bees are cultivated.
With a lot of wood, the design is welcoming and enhances natural light in every room, including the bathrooms in the suites. Additionally, everything you need to enjoy this retreat without thinking about anything else is here.
Villa 70 also has a private and charming trail that leads to the beach of Itapororoca, one of the most pleasant and peaceful in the region – the team sets up the perfect structure for guests who want to spend the day by the sea. In other words, there is no more complete experience of Trancoso.
