A TROPICAL ADVENTURE IN RURAL ITACARÉ, BAHIA, BRAZIL.
Accommodation for €185 per week, all year round, for one to four people.
Experience a tropical adventure in the 'jungle', if desired with personal care at Fazenda Sao Jorge, municipality of Itacaré, district of Taboquinhas. A beautiful green setting where rural life is simple and good.
The European autumn and winter months, here are the spring and summer months. Only the plane tickets could stop you , or maybe a language problem. Only Portuguese is spoken. Spanish is also reasonably understood.
Location.
Our location is outside the inhabited world. Maps / Navigation hardly works here due to the absence of a phone signal and unreliable maps. We are happy to assist you in arriving at our farm from Taboquinhas, Itacaré.
Peace, space and nature.
These are the keywords for Fazenda Sāo Jorge. Guests on our cocoa plantation use a spacious room with door to the veranda, a private toilet and a communal shower cabin. You can also rent our entire house per week.
We almost always sleep with the windows (with mosquito net) open, about as in the open air. Various species of hummingbirds and many other birds in all colors of the rainbow are your daily companions. You will stay in an exuberant nature reserve with many streams, rivers and waterfalls. Within the municipality of Itacaré you will also find beautiful beaches.
Care.
When renting a room (from two nights) we basically have breakfast together in the morning - café de manhã. We have help in the morning with breakfast and for housekeeping. At noon we prepare a hot meal ourselves and a simple meal in the evening. If you eat with us, we will make an appointment about this. Taking over a cooking session from us provides one free meal for the cook.
When renting the whole house , you are 'self supporting'. If you appreciate help in the household, this can be arranged with our housekeeper.
Walk.
On our site we have various hiking trails, from doable to challenging. If you are a real 'hiking lover', larger guided tours can be arranged.
Horseback riding.
Horses and donkeys are widely used here. If you want to go horseback riding, we can arrange that, with or without a guide. A very nice way to cross this beautiful area.
Visiting beaches .
As a day trip or multi-day experiences? Fantastic opportunities around you. Itacaré with many 'bounty like' beaches, towards Ilheus to the south or to the north the islands of Morro de Sao Paulo and Boipeba (our preference) or closer to the Marau Peninsula, you will live unique experiences. Afterwards possibly back in the tranquility of Fazenda São Jorge and your holiday will be unforgettable.
Water sports.
Taboquinhas is a well-known Rafting Paradise. You can experience water sports adventures close by on the Rio de Contas. In addition, there are many sea opportunities in the area and in the bay of Camamu. Taking a Barco to Barra Grande (Popular destination on the Marau Peninsula) is an adventure in itself .
