A comfortable vacation home surrounded by greenery, just a short walk from the ocean

The room is simple but cozy, equipped with a dresser/wardrobe for storing linens; from the window, you can see part of the garden. A stay here is ideal for those seeking relaxation and nature; during the day, you can admire little monkeys searching for fruit in the garden, and at night, a myriad of twinkling stars, or you can sway in the hammocks on the veranda, perhaps while reading a novel by Jorge Amado.
Nearby (a 10-minute walk) is the beach, featuring a number of small kiosks and restaurants where you can savor local specialties.
Throughout the year, various local celebrations and festivals—including those with a religious theme—take place.
Just over 1 km away is the small town of Itaparica, featuring the Fonte da Bica, the marina and the waterfront, the Fort of San Lorenzo, the Igreja Matriz, the small craft center, and Kitanga Square, where you can often enjoy live music on weekends.
10 km away, accessible by taxi or small minibuses, lies the island’s most important town, the small village of Mar Grande, in the municipality of Vera Cruz, where ferries arrive and depart to and from Salvador and where local commerce thrives. In the evening, the nightlife is a bit livelier than in Itaparica, but there are no nightclubs on the island and the bars close early.
