Txai Resort Itacaré
Salvador & BahiaDesigned with the principles of exclusivity, well-being, and hospitability in mind, the Txai Resorts hotels are situated in locations of extraordinary scenic beauty, surrounded by natural landscapes. This positioning ensures a commitment to ecological sustainability, responsible social development, and respect for the local culture and community. Throughout, the guiding principle remains a harmonious relationship between humanity and nature.
Stretching along the Atlantic Forest's edge, Itacarezinho Beach extends as far as the eye can see. With its coconut palms, white sand, and warm crystalline blue ocean throughout the year, this idyllic setting includes bungalows nestled in the shade of trees. Constructed primarily from wood and natural materials, these bungalows are either built on stilts at the water's edge or perched on the hillside, offering breathtaking views of the beach.
The Shamash Spa, situated on the slopes and boasting sweeping vistas of the ocean, provides a variety of beauty rituals using natural products from Bahia. Equally impressive are its culinary offerings, featuring fresh, healthy, and fragrant cuisine that seamlessly blends Brazilian and European influences.
At the Txai Itacaré, the cuisine acquires unique flavours and scents in two restaurants: Orixás and Praia. The Bahian cuisine is presented with contemporary techniques and a vast selection of South American and International wines, which ensure the perfect matching.
