Description
Aldeia Beijupira is one of Brazil’s best kept secrets, a rustic-chic property of just nine thatched malocas hidden amongst the coconut palms and hibiscus trees of the beautiful Coral Coast.
The villas are all styled after local indigenous tribes, and are equipped with DVD player, home theatre, jacuzzi and bespoke linen on your king-size bed. The service is discreet and friendly, and the food simply sublime – the kind of place where you can enjoy a lingering lobster lunch. The Caium bar is a good place to unwind in the evenings and boasts an extensive wine list.
Take time to explore the mangrove-lined river by boat looking for manatees, go horse riding along the beach, or hire a bicycle to discover the unspoilt nearby villages. The ocean is warm and crystal clear and the reefs form natural swimming pools for you to explore as the tide goes down. If that’s all too much, you can simply doze by the pool with a freshly made caipirinha.
