Bahia - Brazil
High up on the shore of Praia do Resende, it's impossible not to be amazed by the 26 hectares of Atlantic Forest that interact with the immensity of the Itacaré sea.
Integrated into the abundant native vegetation on the left-hand slope of Praia do Resende, and just a few steps from "Pituba", the vibrant street where everything happens in Itacaré, BARRACUDA HOTEL & VILLAS is ideal for those seeking privacy and who like to experience Itacaré in their own retreat.
A SANCTUARY OF WILD BEACHES
Itacaré's coast joined the international surfing circuit after being discovered in the 1980s by a group of European friends passionate about the sport. Since then, the tourism spotlight has shone on the small fishing village, distinguishing it from other cities along Bahia's famous coast where the landscape is limited to long coconut groves on beaches with a waveless sea.
In Itacaré, this idyllic geography is enhanced by the only stretch of coastline in the state where several beaches with perfect waves are nestled and framed by cliffs covered in lush Atlantic Forest. This rare vegetation boasts one of the world's highest biodiversities per square meter.
Featuring architecture that's in complete synergy with the native forest, the Hotel consists of 17 suites. Designed so that the natural light and sea breeze are integrated into the environment, the accommodations have a minimalist design which values the textures of natural fibers, such as the straw of oil palms and wood surfaces. The ample verandas allow the surrounding biodiversity to foster moments of relaxation.
The Barracuda Villas are much more than wonderful homes in synergy with nature. They are trully private retreats that offer tailor-made experiences for you, your family and friends.
Villas with 4 to 8 bedrooms, fully equipped and with panoramic views of the sea and the Atlantic Forest.
To make your days even more memorable, each villa has a team of housekeepers who are experts in hospitality, responsible for making yourself at home and preparing daily menus based on fresh local ingredients. In addition, you have the support of the Barracuda Hosts and Guest Relations team.
