Mini-Moon to Brazil

Salvador da Bahia is an attractive UNESCO World Heritage-listed city of Portuguese colonial architecture, Baroque gilded churches, colourful houses and cobblestoned streets leading to pretty squares. It also has a vibrant Afro-Caribbean culture, a thriving arts scene (have a go at capoeira) and a tropical coastline studded with beautiful beaches. Villa Bahia is a stylish boutique hotel in the heart of the city, with one of the city’s best restaurants and a rooftop terrace looking out over historic Pelourinho.

Head south along the coast to the pristine white-sand beaches, multicoloured coral reefs and tropical rainforest of the Marau Peninsula. The Butterfly House Bahia is a remote, luxurious bolthole where you can find blissful seclusion in idyllic surroundings. Head out on a nature trail from the lodge to see armadillos, marmosets and anteaters. Out on the water, snorkel and dive around the coral reefs and spot whales, manta rays and turtles. You could also enjoy paddle boarding in the lagoon or go surfing - this is a popular surfing spot. Relax on tranquil, postcard-perfect bays, and explore the islands at your leisure by private boat, to discover your very own perfect beach.
