Praia do Patacho, Alagoas
In front of Patacho Beach, on a practically untouched stretch of the northern Alagoas coast, this hotel-gallery freezes travelers in time, encouraging them to experience the era of colonial-style mansions and coconut farms from the 1920s. With architecture that recounts history, every corner of the house deserves a careful look, decorated with a refined selection of Northeast Brazilian handicrafts gathered over time. Guests are welcomed with typical Brazilian warmth and up-close, inviting service, an exclusive touch made possible by the limited number of suites in the main house – one master suite and three bungalows. Its manifesto of Brazil is also reflected in the cuisine, which offers a rereading of typical dishes made from the riches found in the cuisine from each of the country’s biomes. The nature of the surrounding areas tops off the enchantment, with bike tours, swimming and excursions by raft to natural pools.
