Everything here is attuned to the spirit of the place, with nothing to disturb nature's magic: no TV or telephone in the rooms, no Internet. This place is for you to be in a different world, the only sounds are the wind in the palm trees and the sea gently lapping the shore.

The rooms are simple but comfortable, walking out onto a vast garden with the sea as a backdrop. Overgrowing luscious tropical flowers and plants form natural screens for the rooms, with humming birds as visitors.

We offer nine rooms, double or twin, some with an extra bed, and a honeymoon suite, accommodating a maximum of 24 people. Each room has a private balcony with a hammock.

The hotel decoration is sober and includes original works of Brazilian artists.

No TV, telephone or Internet here; no air-conditioning. The rooms are sober, with just a few orchids and fresh water on the table. You can get drinks around the clock from the honesty bar in the corridor. All the rooms are different but have the same standard, except the spectacular honeymoon suite with its en-suite jacuzzi and large balcony overlooking the sea.

At Picinguaba eating well is part of the lifestyle; we draw from the abundance of exceptional fresh produce to offer our hosts an intense culinary experience. For breakfast, the organic eggs from the village have a rich yellow yolk, reminiscent of old days, and the coffee from the nearby valley of Parnaiba is one of the best of the world. For dinner, we serve large helpings of fresh fish and seafood from the bay along with Cunha mushrooms, gold bananas, fresh grilled palm hearts, all from the forest. Fine cuisine based on delicious naturally organic local products that we harvest or fetch ourselves, is one of the very enjoyable privileges of the Pousada. We want you to share the wonders of the ocean, the mountain and the tropical forest that are all around us.

When you get back in the evening, after a well-deserved drink, you will sit down to a choice of succulent dishes from the day’s catch or harvest, prepared by Beto the Chef and his team of cooks, ladies from the nearby village.
