Another tropical trip...

Coming at you from the other end of the country - Linda from Lime in the Coconut making me miss the motherland...


The ever-so talented Ashley asked that I blogsit for her while she travels to the wild edges of Alaska.

Sure, I say. What an honor...What a privilege...What fun!

So...

While she dips her icy toes into the dark Alaskan waters...

Join me. Grab a long cool drink...We are heading to

a whole other edge of the world...

Separated from civilization by a sweep of meandering lagoon and white sands

With no neighbours and a maximum of just 28 guests, this Bahia Coast Beach hotel is like a private slice of paradise.

It is all about hammock snoozes, rainforest wanders and just

being.


Its 14 spacious cabãnas are surrounded by lush jungle, and are adorned with a smart mix of bright white and bold colours...

each has it's own outdoor shower




Hotel Fazenda de Lagoa is practically the definition of beach-shack chic.

A fine line exists between indoor and outdoor living...

don't we all need that...

once in awhile? well, maybe not so much in Alaska.


In the alcove library, carefully curated floor-to-ceiling titles are interrupted only by wooden sculpture of a white bird surrounded by flowers.

and of course, the requisite billowy spa area

Fazenda da Lagoa....what a colorful, sunny respite

and, uh, Ashley...can you bring some Ice when you come back?

for our long cool drinks?

hmmmmm?
