Txai

Coconut groves and the Atlantic Forest cradle Txai in privacy along a protected stretch of Bahia called the Cocoa Coast, coined after its many cocoa farms. Here, palm-dotted hillsides meet the powder sands of Itacarezinho Beach. As far as the eye can see, coconut trees whisper in the sea breeze and views pan out over turquoise waters. 

Beyond, Brazil‘s Atlantic Forest, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, invites you to discover its diverse nature and wildlife. Walking trails lead you to natural pools, waterfalls and hidden beaches like Jeribucaçu and Havaizinho. You can also explore nearby rivers by boat and learn about cocoa production on neighbouring farms. 

Back at Itacarezinho Beach, its consistent waves make it a favourite among surfers. Meanwhile, its fine sands are a sanctuary for nesting turtles. Without leaving Txai, you can while away the time between its collection of pools or at the hilltop spa. Take part in a calming meditation class or indulge in a wellness ritual to the tumble of waves.

Tropical blossoms and foliage envelop Txai’s apartments, bungalows, villas and residences. Designed to reflect their natural surroundings, they’ve been crafted using raw materials, including bamboo and palm fronds. Couples will adore the intimacy of a stilted bungalow, tucked away near the beach or on the hillside overlooking the ocean. 

Enjoy breakfast and lunch on breezy terraces or with sand sifting through your toes. In the evenings, starry skies and soft candlelight set the scene for haute cuisine using Bahian ingredients, which the skilled culinary team sources from local growers.
