Location.
Set amid lush tropical gardens and renovated in 2011, Villetta Dunas is just 2 km (1.2 mi) from Salvador's famous Itapua Beach, with its picture-perfect lighthouse. One side of the beach is lapped by calm, reef-protected waters; on the other side, powerful, unprotected Atlantic waves draw local surfers--and those who love to watch this exciting sport. Guests can also spend a day at Jaguaribe Beach, 3 km (1.8 mi) from Villetta Dunas. Here, the sea is relatively calm, and natural pools form during low tide. At both beaches, kiosks sell local snacks, fresh seafood, and ice-cold beer. Also within easy reach: Parque Dunas Do Abaeté, a natural preserve with towering white-sand dunes and blue lagoons. Salvador's city center, including the historical Pelourinho district, is about 20 km (12.4 mi) away, across the peninsula. Arriving in Salvador by plane? The international airport is only a 5-minute drive from the hotel.
