Two Michelin Keys

Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The peninsula looks out over the Emerald Coast toward the Três Ilhas archipelago, surrounded by placid bays and traditional oyster farms.
The rooms
Wood-paneled ceilings, private dry saunas, and fireplaces frame Atlantic views, while higher-tier villas feature heated infinity plunge pools on expansive decks.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
White columns and stacked stone walls enclose the heated lap pool, looking out through tall garden windows.
The spa
Treatment rooms open directly to the rainforest canopy for La Mer facials and botanical aromatherapy balms.
Gym and yoga studio
Glass-walled workout rooms look out on the jungle, with dedicated spaces for yoga practice and strength training.
At the table
Open-air thatched pavilions serve fresh Atlantic seafood, coconut moqueca, and caipirinhas beside the cove.
How it began

Long known as Ponta dos Ganchos, this secluded peninsula retreat was reimagined by Awasi with dedicated private guides and expanded rainforest pavilions.
