Experience the Famous Quadrado Way of Life

Informed by generations of family experience in the hospitality business, this vacation home rental in Trancoso is a relaxed and chic take on Bahian style. We love the rustic finishes and outdoor living areas.

Built by local artisans who were selected for their respect and knowledge of the culture, style and the traditions of the Bahia region, this vacation home rental in Trancoso was created by a well-known French family who, for generations have developed a collection of luxury hotels around the world.    

Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac and set back just enough from the famous Quadrado for both easy access and privacy, the property is designed in classic Bahian style. Entering through a beautiful tropical garden to the ground floor, the large living areas include a professional grade kitchen and bar with large sliding windows that blends into the outside deck and dining area with its large wooden table, pizza oven and grill. There is a master suite with a private terrace and one double room on this floor. Above is an additional open living area overlooking the garden with a master suite that opens out to a balcony with two additional double bedrooms.

Decorated in traditional Bahian style by local artisans, the rustic finishes and handcrafted furnishings are focused on traditionally sourced materials. The Indonesian tile swimming pool with counter current swimming system features a sitting area with a large wooden sofa and hamaca and is surrounded by a wooden deck for chilling out and enjoying the Bahian sun.

The perfect home to experience the famous Quadrado way of life and the beautiful white sandy beaches of Trancoso with family or friends, you'll be part of the historic community that has become one of Brazil's most celebrated destinations.

AROUND

The charming and rustic town of Trancoso sits along the southern region of the Atlantic coast of Bahia along beautiful stretches of unspoiled shoreline. A former laid back hippy destination, the town is attracting a more jet set crowd of late but remains laid back. From the UNESCO-designated Quadrado, to the cobblestone streets and candy-colored houses, this bluffside village hums along at a dreamy pace. 

The nearby beaches of Praia do Espelho, Praia dos Nativos, Rio da Barra are to the north and Rio Verde, Itaquema and Ponta de Itapororoca are to the south. Further North is the historic town of Arraial D’Ajuda in the district of Porto Seguro belonging to the region known as Discovery Coast (Costa do Descobrimento), where Portuguese explorers arrived in 1500. A peaceful and unique seaside village, it's located on a plateau overlooking the breathtaking coastline.
