The house
This is a very special place! The layout of the house is integrated with the surrounding nature in an incredible way – you feel like you are in the middle of a tropical rainforest. The premises are on a hill on the right side of the beach, basically you have two stories: an upper deck with two rooms next to each other and a vast terrace, plus a lower deck with another room, a small storage room with 2 fridges, another large terrace and the main area, combining the kitchen and living “room”. The special feature of this house is that this main area and kitchen is open space (obviously under a large roof). You have about 30qm, so more than enough space under the roof. So the only closed areas are the 3 rooms (each room has its own bathroom & shower). The view from the lower and upper terraces is amazing, you look directly onto the ocean. The kitchen is fully equipped, and there is also a barbecue pit. Everything is arranged and decorated with a lot of care, it is a very stylish environment. Not to mention that everything is clean.
Getting there
Access by car, it is a bit tricky to find, but the owner gives a very good description. The place is within a closed “condominio”, so it is also safe. From the parking lot you have to walk down ca. 80m of stairs which a quite steep. You should consider this, however it is not a problem if you do not have any health issues etc. with walking or stairs.
Barra do Sahy
The beach is great, it is a very beautiful and quiet place. Not many houses or movement. If you rather look for nightlife, this is not the place for you. On the left side of the beach you can take a boat to the close-by islands, it is a nice trip. The water is calm, so it is ideal for kids (however for surfing you need to drive ca. 10 mins to Juquehy or elsewhere).
In general, the pictures already give a good impression of the place. The owner, Fil, has given great support, everything was organized well. We were 3 couples and the house is more than spacious for this amount of people. I can highly recommend this place, it is ideal to kick back and enjoy nature. You will not want to leave again!
