Laranjeiras, Villa 17

From the very first photo, it is clear that Villa 17 is something special. It has a fabulous location, set within the Laranjeiras condominium – one of Brazil´s most exclusive coastal spots and a true hidden paradise nestled between crystal-clear sea and the Atlantic rainforest. 

But it is not just the location which impresses; the villa sits on a beachfront plot, close to a waterfall, and its gorgeous tropical garden flows seamlessly into the condominium´s lawns, creating a wonderful sense of space. 

Then there’s the vibe: unpretentious yet tastefully decorated, this home exudes beach house charm. Unsurprisingly, the outdoor area is a highlight, with a pool and jacuzzi that glow under twinkling string lights at night, making the ambience even more enchanting. 

Staying here is all about embracing the privilege of being in such a special place. Guests have access to all of the condominium´s amenities, including a state-of-the-art gym, beach tennis courts and multiple pools. And at the end of the day, just pick a quiet spot to admire the view and listen to the soothing sound of the sea in the background. 

Mallorca Villa 01

Located in Llubí in the heart of Mallorca, Spain, this Villa combines the tranquility of the interior with the charm of the Mediterranean. Surrounded by an exquisite garden, full of fruit trees and typical Mediterranean species, you can see the breathtaking landscape of the Sierra Tramontana. The house is built around a central courtyard, which houses the 8 charming suites and has a beautiful outdoor pool.

Mikonos Villa 02

Clean and minimalist, Mykonos Villa 2, located in Greece, is divided into two houses, making it ideal for families traveling together or groups of friends. The design combines large, light spaces with touches of color and many outdoor environments. Between two special beaches and at the same time close to the center of Mykonos is perfect for those who want to be close to the movement, but in a more reserved area.

Paraty Villa 15

Those who walk past the entrance to Villa 15, will have no idea what a beautiful oasis awaits them beyond the simple blue and white façade. From the outside, the villa´s size is deceptive as you would not imagine it occupies a large part of a block of the historic center of Paraty. It has a sauna and a pool (a rarity in Paraty houses), making it the ideal place to enjoy a rest after a day of sightseeing or simply a lazy day at home.

You can also hire the villa´s very own schooner (at an extra cost) to explore the beautiful islands, bays and beaches around Paraty´s bay. When out on the boat, we suggest you use the villa´s beach facilities on Cotia island.

Paraty, Villa 11

You only need a few minutes in Villa 11 before you realise why the owners of this house fell in love with Paraty back in the 1960s. 

The villa has three suites and is located 10 minutes by boat from Paraty’s historic centre.  It is surrounded by lush Atlantic rainforest and a magical garden, with an abundance of native trees and tropical flowers.  There are two hiking trails within the property which take in the ruins of an imperial fort with its original canons and a 360 degree view of the bay of Paraty. 

The villa’s landlord owns the well known Pousada do Sandi in Paraty’s historical centre.  The internal décor is tasteful and stylish with floor to ceiling windows which show off the spectacular tropical rainforest and emerald green sea. 

Should you wish to visit some of the many tropical islands in the area or gather mussels at the mussel farm in Pouso da Cajaiba, there are two speedboats available to hire.

Paraty, Villa 12

Visiting Paraty is a cultural treat and staying in Villa 12 makes the cultural experience even more special. The villa is ideally located near Paraty’s main pier and within walking distance from all the shops and restaurants. The villa’s owner is co-founder of one of Brazil’s top interior design agencies and he has ensured it is tastefully decorated with exquisite antique furniture and art.

This elegant villa has ample bedrooms, an open plan kitchen and bright rooms overlooking an internal garden with a pool…this is a rarity in Paraty houses. It is an oasis from which to escape the world and recharge your batteries.

Paraty, Villa 19

The experience of staying in a colonial house in the Historic Center of Paraty is, in itself, the perfect reason to visit this enchanting coastal town. What sets this villa apart is its quiet location, tucked away from the town´s bustling activity, as well as the picturesque sea views from some of the bedrooms.

This intimate are meticulously preserved house and its attention to detail is exquisite. The highlights include; beautiful china plates which adorn the table for unhurried lunches, gorgeous views from the bedrooms, and the opportunity to lose oneself in a good book in a cozy room while the vibrant life of Paraty carries on outside.

Another highlight is its small garden with a pool, which is a rarity in the city’s houses. These exclusive touches make this villa an exceptional retreat.

Paraty, Villa 20

There should be a separate category to describe our Villa 20, a house on a private and paradise-like beach on the outskirts of Paraty. Something that evokes cinema and those locations we swear aren’t real. In other words, something extraordinary.

This is a grand villa, and we’re not just talking about the 405,000 square meters of land, which starts at the sea and rises into the forest. Nor about the complete and incredibly helpful team, or the amazing collection religious memorabilia that fills each of the spaces with personality.

Here, every detail is meticulously thought out to make the experience truly unforgettable, from a coffee served in a memorable way to the perfectly pressed bed linen in the early moments of the day. The suites are spread across four fully equipped Villas on the property, ensuring complete privacy.

Above all, Villa 20 is an invitation to forget about the outside world and enjoy magical moments with friends or family, whether with your feet in the sand or participating in any of the many leisure activities. And the list is vast: there’s a pool, hot tub, soccer field, massage room, and much more.

The gastronomy is another chapter worth highlighting. The menu is complete and satisfies a wide variety of culinary desires, along with a great kids menu. The experience continues with meals al mare, with amazing lunches served aboard the property’s schooner – which must be rented separately. And for pizza nights, how about a team trained by one of São Paulo’s best pizzaiolos?

Finally, Paraty is about a ten-minute boat ride from this paradise, but we guarantee you won’t want to leave Villa 20, not even for a few seconds. After all, a movie-like setting that becomes reality should be enjoyed to the fullest!

Praia do Forte, Villa 05

For many people, a vacation in Bahia is synonymous with total tranquility. And for them, there’s nothing like Villa 5, located in the Enseada do Castelo condominium in Praia do Forte. Surrounded by environmentally protected areas, the property features a garden with fruit trees, birds, monkeys, and even sloths.

In the best rustic chic style that dictates the most authentic refuges in Bahia, Villa 5 features a delightful trellis balcony, perfect for watching the sunset and snacking, as well as a large swimming pool. Added to this is the structure – beach support, beach tennis, tennis, and gym – and the strategic location of the condominium. With several gastronomic options and incredible experiences, Praia do Forte is the perfect destination for those seeking days of shade and fresh water, but it can also offer cultural tours – and parties – just a few minutes away from Salvador.
