Cuisine
We believe that how you feed your body is as much of a part of a yogic life as breathing. Food is prepared with love and care, from the freshest, most un-altered ingredients possible, so that every bite can be savoured with pleasure.
Maraú
The wild and beautiful Maraú Peninsula offers pristine beaches, freshwater lakes and world-heritage listed luscious Atlantic rainforest. The bay is dotted with small islands, local fishing villages and serene, crystal clear rock pools with stunning snorkeling.
The Butterfly House
Butterfly Lodge’s luxurious bungalows, carved out of nature, offer unrivaled comfort and privacy in one of the wildest parts of Brazil. For those seeking luxury and adventure in equal measure, look no further.
