Description

Brazil is a hot destination. North East offers the most beautiful
beaches and a launch pad for many explorations: Amazonia, Brasilia,
Peru, Rio, Argentina. Joao Pessoa is Brazil best kept secret: a city
of 800.000 inhabitants with a human scale beachfront (no Miami or Rio
style). Capital of Paraiba State, the second greenest city in the
world after Paris (UNESCO), and the most oriental point of the
Americas(4.200 Km from Ivory Coast, Africa) People are always
nice.(but speak only Portuguese) Weather is the same all year round;
between 28 and 32 Celsius. Direct European flights reach Natal or
Recife (both cities two hours by bus). Infrastructure, public
transportation, taxis, healthcare are all first class. Cost of living
is FAR below North America or Europe. This is a true tropical
destination, astonishingly clean and secure - right under the Equator
- without most of the problems normally associated to such latitudes.
A fantastic family place.
The first time I visited this place.. I decided to make it my
secondary home! And I have traveled a lot!

Amenities

Apartment has all the necessary comfort, with ceiling fans and air
conditioning. TV and high speed Internet. Two closed garage spaces,
24/7 security guard. Pool and Sauna (if you are not hot enough!) +
party Space and Ping pong.
Enjoy the lovely evening breeze and the breathtaking view from the
veranda, with a Caipirinha. (you will love this drink!)

TESTIMONIALS
From Wendy Wolford, North Carolina
I stayed in the Cabo Branco apartment for four weeks with my husband,
a friend, and my 4 year old son. We loved the place, it really felt
both like a home and like a beach vacation house. The apartment is
right off of the beach - perfect, really, because the beach avenue
itself is too noisy to be comfortable on. And the beach were the
apartment is situated (Cabo Branco) really is one of, if not the,
nicest places along the shoreline of Joao Pessoa. There is a wide
sidewalk with little beach bars and good restaurants, and the road is
closed to traffic from 5:00 am to 8:00 every morning so that people
can run, walk and bike around. The beach in front of the apartment is
also lovely - several kilometers of white sand and not very many
people in any given place. If you're looking for a family vacation
place in Joao Pessoa, this apartment is perfect.

Attractions

White sand beach, 40 meters from apartment, is huge, clean,
secure, lighted at night, friendly for swimmers and seems almost
deserted during the week...
Play futbol (soccer) barefoot on sand every evening with local kids
(good luck!)
Daily excursions on Buggy, with a guide, for small islands (at low
tide only) and coral reefs.
Tour the South and North beaches, every one of them more gorgeous than
the other. Sand, dunes, rocks, canyons...All within 1 hour drive.
Go farther to share waters with Dolphins (Pipa beach) or discover
Dinausors tracks.
Good music around Tambau area, 15 minutes walk on convivial beach front.
Enjoy the beach restaurants, under mango trees, eating
catch-of-the-day Langusta..or the more sophisticated ones, always al
fresco and with such good prices! Take a bite out of tasty
Argentinian beef.

Rates

The official high season in Brazil is from December to March, peaking with the Carnival frenzy, end of February. Joao Pessoa has no big Carnival, but hosts many small activities and people going to Campina Grande, Natal or Recife. It is very difficult to travel during this time of year and to find a decent place to stay ($$). You can enjoy Joao every month of the year. So there is no real low season! Pricing adapted to the length of the stay and the number of people.
