Vila Kalango  

In the heart of Jijoca de Jericoacoara on Brazil’s sun-blown coast — a beach pousada just steps from Jericoacoara Beach, Central Square and the famous Por do Sol (Sunset) Dune. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, this oasis sits among century-old coconut trees and constant trade winds.

Built in 1999 from reused native wood, the property has 24 rustic, cozy bungalows and apartments with private balconies that catch sea breezes and treetop views. Rooms focus on nature: ceiling fans or air conditioning, hot showers heated by solar energy, and no TVs to keep the vibe unplugged and local.

TicoWind water sports center offers lessons and rentals for kitesurf, windsurf, wingfoil, foil, SUP and more. Lounge by the red lagoon-style pool, book an on-site massage, join yoga or pilates sessions, ride horseback to hidden spots, or take hands-on cultural experiences like cassava-flour workshops. Babysitting is available (surcharge) and there’s a kids’ playroom.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property, a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and laundry services. Roundtrip airport shuttle and concierge services are available for a surcharge.

Restaurant Vila K serves fresh regional flavors with an ocean view and a focus on local fish and Ceara cuisine. There’s also a cafe and poolside bar. A complimentary full breakfast is served daily from 7:30 AM to 10:00 AM.
