By the sea, we celebrate the joy of living, in harmony with the preserved nature of
southern Bahia and the richness of its local culture. Thoughtful hospitality is the essence of
Barracuda.
Scandinavian refinement meets
Itacaré was the setting for the encounters that were the origin of the Barracuda journey.
It was the summer of 2004 in Bahia that Juliana Ghiotto, a designer from São Paulo, Daniel Lima, a local surfer, and a group of Swedish friends, composed of hoteliers, entrepreneurs and artists, first met.
Having fallen in love with this privileged land beside the Atlantic Ocean, they joined forces to create a life project together. The union with the community, of shared intentions and values, made it possible for them to realize their dream: To make this natural paradise home and, at the same time, a hotel.
It was a local fish with lots of personality that inspired the name given to this unique hospitality experience in Brazil: The Barracuda Group.
With Bahia's blessings, surrounded by Atlantic Forest and with a view of the ocean, the hosts at Barracuda live to share the best of life in Itacaré with the guests that come to visit.
The Barracuda Group allocates 10% of its lodging revenue to the Yandê Itacaré Institute, which supports and runs 7 socio-environmental projects, including the CO2 Legal Tourism Program - Guardians of the Climate.
