Pousada Chic Boutique

The small beach village of Barra Grande is set on the westernmost stretch of coast of the little known, but picturesque northern state of Piaui. This is the place to truly relax and disconnect from the modern world.

Although still a small fishing community, the pristine coastline and excellent conditions for kite surfing are beginning to attract a small number of in-the-know international travelers. This stunning five-room boutique hotel was lovingly built by a French architect couple and, despite the remote location, no comforts have been spared. The attention to detail is astonishing, and many of the design elements were imported from France to ensure luxury in the spacious suites. Overlooking the dunes and ocean beyond, allowing for breathtaking year-round sunsets, the restaurant serves local cuisine with French influences and is the best in the village.

Hotel Pros
  • The only luxury hotel in a small fishing village, a great place to disconnect
  • Fantastic kite surfing and fewer tourists than at the better-known spots in Ceará
  • Delicious food and a stunning pool area – it’s easy to spend a whole day without leaving the hotel
  • As well as the beaches and kite surfing, you can also visit the vast Parnaiba River Delta from here, wonderful for birdwatching as well as just cruising through wild mangrove forests by speedboat
  • One of Brazil’s best sunsets
Hotel Cons
  • The beach itself is around a five-minute walk from the hotel through the dunes
  • The ground floor rooms don’t have sea views
  • The nearest commercial airports with regular flights are Teresina and Fortaleza, which are both around a five-hour drive away. Jericoacoara is closer (three hours) but has limited connections. Private flights can arrive at Parnaiba. However, it is a property that works very well as part of a multi-stop land itinerary along the north coast.
