Spending a season in our villa 23 is a special experience, the kind that transports you to another time. Located in Sousas, near Campinas, the property is an old coffee farm that has undergone an impeccable restoration.
The historic mansion has been well maintained and full of charm, but the grounds, surrounded by greenery as far as the eye can see, have been given an annex with a large leisure area and various attractions where you can literally forget about the hectic life going on outside.
All this without counting the many ways to explore the magical scenery that frames the horizon, at a slow travel pace, as a season in nature demands.
St Barth Villa 1 spreads its 1,600 m² on various levels across the dune slopes of Saline Beach. With two pools, six bedrooms and gourmet cuisine, it is a great choice for family or friends’ celebrations. The wild and beautiful beach of Saline is just 7 minutes ‘walk away and Gustavia is around 10 minutes’ drive away.
The inspiration for the construction of this villa was a rare vinyl by Dorival Caymmi – one of Brazil’s most influential singer-songwriters – recorded in the 1950s and cherished by the owners. But the moment you step inside, it all becomes clear: this collector’s gem has inspired a home filled with Brazilian soul and an irresistibly laid-back charm.
The beachfront location is a highlight: the villa sits on a beachfront plot in one of the most secluded corners of Praia dos Pinheiros, within a gated condominium, just a few kilometres from São Paulo. With the sea as the star of the setting, every part of the house has been thoughtfully designed to frame the view. Even the gourmet kitchen flows seamlessly into the living room. The tropical landscaping embraces the scenery without blocking the ocean views, despite the lush greenery.
And the local caiçara culture shines through in many of the decorative features – with light tones, paddles hung on the walls, and other seaside elements -which retain a cosy and comfortable feel.
From the five suites to the TV room, every space is delightful. Not to mention the outdoor area: there is a swimming pool, sauna, a pergola with hammocks, and a fire pit perfect for warm, fire-lit evenings. From beginning to end, this is the beach house of our dreams.
We are not exaggerating when we say that this is one of the most special villas in our portfolio…and arguably in the whole of Trancoso. It is located on Itapororoca beach and is a real oasis surrounded by lush green rainforest, with beautiful architecture and art.
Architect, Marcio Kogan from MK27 designed the villa on a raised wooden deck, with straight, simple lines throughout, with the purpose of highlighting the exuberance of the surrounding countryside. Every corner of this house is beautiful.
From the four en-suite bedrooms to the gym, to the clever use of natural light throughout the house, everything harmonizes beautifully with an impressive art collection and furniture made out of braúna wood.
The gardens which lead to the sea were designed by Isabel Duprat who used different shades of green throughout the garden. The gardens come to life at night with the clever use of lighting designed by Airton Pimenta.
The villa´s staff are always on hand and can prepare healthy food menus. This really is a place from which to escape and reconnect with nature.
Villa 15 in Trancoso was born from the desire to create a unique and deeply Brazilian space on a paradisiacal plot of land by the sea, on Itapororoca Beach, just 20 minutes from the Quadrado.
Inspired by a village in the Xingu, the house has as its centerpiece a large oca, built by the indigenous people themselves. The decor is ethnic and authentic, with handcrafted pieces that enhance the large living room integrated with the garden and extend to each of the suites.
The result is a house that balances rustic and simple style with the comfort of a contemporary residence, combined with a highly trained staff and the lush natural setting of an exclusive private condominium.
Villa 17 is located on the beach with stunning views of the sea. Its stone tiled pool blends into the lush green of its 6,600m2 tropical garden, home to a huge variety of native Atlantic rainforest plants. The veranda dining table is the ideal place to while away a long lunch while the sea breeze permeates every corner of this magical home.
It is hard not to be charmed by the villas unpretentious decoration and its abundance of beautiful furniture from around Brazil and the world.
There are many reasons why villa 17 is one of the most special houses within our portfolio of villas. However, what really puts it at the top of our list is its exceptional service.
Every day a full time, well trained team take care of every need so that you can really enjoy your stay in this small piece of paradise. In short, every detail is taken care of so that you can really make the most of your holiday.
The villa was designed by a talented artchitect couple and is one of the most special houses in Trancoso. Its relaxed boho rustic décor includes items from around the world making it one of our stand out properties.
It is like an oasis surrounded by 5,000 m2 of tropical gardens and a gorgeous pool, in one of the best condominiums in Trancoso.
The house is the perfect haven for total relaxation. The master suite takes up the whole of the upper floor and has its own terrace with a hammock. There is also a bungalow with two bedrooms, each with a private terrace and external showers – perfect for watching the stars at night. The house also has a sauna and an open air bar.
Don’t be surprised if, after spending a few days at Villa 47, located in the Terravista condominium, the experience of being at home easily rivals any seaside activities in Trancoso. With seven suites and an atmosphere designed to help you unwind, the property invites you to savor every moment at a leisurely pace, surrounded by family, friends, and long, unhurried days.
The pool occupies a central position and naturally connects the home’s spaces—from the gourmet kitchen to the game room, equipped with foosball and pool. It is around the pool that lazy mornings on the terrace, leisurely lunches, and movie nights in a cozy and extremely comfortable room take place.
Added to this, the housekeeping service makes all the difference: under the attentive care of a dedicated team, every detail of the day is handled with care and precision. Meals served in new settings, carefully set tables, massage sessions in a private space, and small surprises throughout the stay help create a memorable experience.
To begin with the light that invades every part of the house, it’s impossible to not feel enchanted by our Trancoso Villa. The garden has a striking presence from wherever you look and helps the villa to become a true refuge.
With a lot of “bossa” and an unpretentious decoration, the house resembles a bit of Mykonos and Ibiza but don’t let aside authentic elements of the Brazilian culture. Like the “taubilha” roof, a typical material from Bahia that seals the living room height. And if the idea is to bring together groups of friends, the atmosphere can become more breadth if you open the two doors that separates the bar and the kitchen.
As a view, the terrace and charming straw nets, an old wooden deck and the house main character: a swimming pool that embraces the green vegetation. At the surrounding, the 5 ensuite bedrooms with minimalist style and its gardens.
The location is also special: located inside the Altos de Trancoso condo, with all the security and exclusivity that your holidays require, but close enough to the city center (Quadrado) for those nights you feel like partying.
