Villas de Trancoso

Luxury private villa retreats set on a beautiful Bahian beach close to the hippy-chic village of Trancoso
Mix together a cocktail of Bahia's relaxed exotic culture. Blend in the tranquil seclusion of guest villas set in spacious tropical gardens by a beautiful beach and you get Villas de Trancoso. Set just a mile from the hip yet historic village of Trancoso, 500 miles south of Salvador, these 1- and 2-bedroom guest villas are like homes within an intimate hotel thanks to American owner Galen Briggs. When first visiting, so seduced was he by the area, that he never left. Today his attention to detail is notable everywhere.

Picture elegant native décor and a real sense of personal service to plan a myriad of trips and activities. Lounge by the hotel's white marbled pool or ask the accomplished chef to cook up something delicious from the kitchen. Its private terraced beach area lies beneath shady palms where you'll find the bar, a uniquely crafted wooden gym and waterfall showers. The sun shines more often in these parts and at full moon a stroll along the shore is unforgettable.
