Pousada BGK

A little paradise for a holiday, whether you’re looking to relax or want days full of wind and kitesurfing. At low tide the water is flat, while high tide brings small kickers. The on-site kitesurfing facilities make it easy to get out there. The beachfront bungalows are elegant, the pool is sparkling, and greenery surrounds the place. It feels like an oasis where luxury meets nature, with every detail geared toward a tropical escape. My absolute favorite place!

The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, and breakfast was delicious. Try the couscous and made-to-order tapioca. The beachside restaurant was okay, and the pool was nice. The property is right by the beach. We stayed in one of the chalets next to the pool. I’d avoid those unless you have small kids and want to keep an eye on them from your balcony. The rooms felt damp and smelled like bedding that hadn’t dried properly, and the mattresses and pillows were low quality.

The kiteschool had a funeral-like vibe, which was a shame because the place could be so nice. The beach boys seemed like the unhappiest Brazilians I’ve met, and they showed no respect for my expensive kite gear.

After I crashed on the reef, they stopped the bleeding and cleaned, packed, and stored my kite. They’re super helpful and friendly. We ate there every day, and the food and drinks were fairly priced. Really convenient if you’re kiting!
