Value
Opened in 2004, it is a unique hotel, more like a friendly guesthouse. Conceived by the owner Renata Mellao and designed by architect Renato Marques with landscaping by Jose Pedro, the simplicity of the Corumbau native ways is allied to the sophistication of international hotels standards. Long wooden walkways merging with the native vegetation connect the buildings over the sand.

This is a gem hotel. The locations is tricky to get but this the great deal. The rooms are well decorated and inserted in the nature. Rooms are clean and confortable. The bath room is clean and fairly enough in space. The service is great and the staff is always ready to help you. The private beach is almost empty giving you the best relax and tranquility.

Vila Naia is the perfect place if you want to rest, relax in an amazing beach. There are only 8-9 bungalows in one of the best beaches in Bahia. Every thing is simple, friendly, super charming. You as as well as in the best restaurants in Sao Paulo or other major city in the world, but you are in the middle of paradise. Most likely with only few other guests and over 30 wonderful staff members to pamper you and your family. Natalina and Marcos where amazingly helpful to me and my family. My wife, my two daughters (6 and 8 years old) and myself all loved it.

Vila Naia is a fantastic place with outstanding service sufficiently far away from mainstream tourism so that you get an almost empty beach for yourself. The way how to get there is either by a long car trip or a bit more adventurous by car to Caraiva and afterwards by boat crossing two rivers and a buggy ride in between. However was you are there the surrounding, the rooms and especially the service make it an unforgettable experience.

I went here for the day from Trancoso by boat it took about an hour there is another way to get there by car then you have to cross a river then a buggy sounds like an adventure but I only had the day so the boat trip was great the coast like is magnificent. Once I arrived I was greeted with such a welcoming smiling face holding a glass of the freshest coconut water ever was the perfect start. I was then showed around the rooms and facilities even though I was a day guest the place had the aura of serenity. I settled on the beach was then given a 2 way radio if I needed anything which worked well and then had fresh ceviche which was the best I have ever eaten. I then had lunch in the restaurant was I felt was good but not great shrimp but the salads and bread was so fresh it was delicious followed by a small pudding again delicious. I settled back on the beach for another hour before I had to go back as it was getting late. After the monologue of my day all I can day is I wish I could have stayed or actually I should have stayed as I felt so lifted and free if I ever get the chance will 100% go back. The only downfall which sadly I must add is the mosquitos.

Vila Naia is a charming place 4 hrs ahead, by car, from Porto Seguro. Yes, it's a loong road trip, and sometimes dangerous, but worth it. Is it possible to go by plane .20 min or helicopter (15min). In one of the mpst beautiful beaches in Brazil, where you can swim in the water with no waves, amazing and very hot sun, the houses and rooms are beautifully designed and decorated. If is possible, choose the houses where you can have more privacy. The food is good, but the best from all is the "Bahia" hospitality. All the staff is really kind and polite. It was a wonderful time and new year's eve celebration. Want to come back soon!!!

If you're seeking for the best experience of anywhere in the south of Bahia, this is your destination. It has the feel of a private house as rooms are spread apart and few. Service is flawless: each room is assigned a personal caretaker who can be reached anytime from a walkie talkie. Bob - the great barman - makes any drink you've ever had plus a few amazing creations of his own.

I stayed at Vila Naiá during Carnaval. In a nutshell: idyllic… Corumbau is almost as I remember (had been there in 1998), still deserted, except for the two villages north and south of the property, which have grown hectically – and actually look awful. But the property is still far enough to ensure privacy, as most people do not walk that far. I had wonderful recollections of the beach itself, and relived all of them: it is one of the best beaches I know in Brazil, in terms of water, sand, sun, setting. Now, about Vila Naiá... The property is in a class of its own. They cater to very few guests at a time, so it is never crowded –whether by the pool, at the restaurant or at the beach (where the cabanas for the guests are set far enough from one another no-one will be within earshot). I stayed at one of the “casinhas”, and found it excellent. Large but not huge (but some would say huge, I am sure). An architectural wonder in its simplicity. Such craftsmanship – feels it was assembled as a puzzle… The little house, rustic from the outside, is a box of polished wood inside. Sparingly and nicely appointed, über comfortable oversized bed. The bathroom was good, not dazzling, but still not to be faulted. The seclusion ensures quiet nights of quiet stars – and *so many* stars! We found the food is also delectable – most of the meals were memorable, and even those that were not, were above-average, to say the least. Staff are very helpful and friendly, every time you need them – otherwise they will just hover around, almost invisibly. Vila Naiá does come at a price, but it is perfectly understandable – you have to experience it to understand the excellent value. If you need to get away from it all, it is *the* perfect destination. I, for one, am looking forward to staying there again.

Appearances can be deceiving. From the outside, it looks more like a local property with fishermen huts. But Vila Naia is an absolutely lovely hotel, and the apparent simplicity is only part of a great experience, that also includes fantastic service, great food, miles of beautiful beaches and secluded location. A place to relax and enjoy, in a peaceful atmosphere that makes you wonder why people live in big cities. An absolute must that more than compensates the long journey (4 hours by car from Port Seguro) or the costs of the 20 minute helicopter ride.
