What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
set on a palm tree-framed clifftop, its wide infinity pool and wooden terraces open to the sea, sky, and jungle.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Trails lead down to the surf at Praia do Resende, with quiet coastal waterways and mangrove channels waiting nearby.
The rooms
Suites frame coastal views through flowing white drapes, featuring polished concrete floors, auburn timber ceilings, and private ocean-facing verandas.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The clifftop infinity pool stretches along a weathered timber deck looking straight out over the Atlantic Ocean.
At the table
The open-air restaurant serves fresh local seafood to the sound of vinyl records, and the rooftop bar pours sunset caipirinhas.
How it began
Founded in 2020 by a Brazilian surfer and Swedish friends, the retreat merges Scandinavian minimalism with Bahia’s coastal spirit.
