AWASI SANTA CATARINA

A hidden coastline at the edge of the Atlantic

There are still places along the Brazilian coast that feel undiscovered.

Places where dense Atlantic rainforest tumbles towards empty beaches, where fishing villages continue to follow the rhythm of the sea and where nature remains beautifully untamed.

Awasi Santa Catarina was created for travellers seeking exactly that.

Set along one of the most spectacular stretches of coastline in southern Brazil, the property offers complete privacy, personalised service and extraordinary access to landscapes that remain largely unknown outside the country. Each villa enjoys its own private guide and vehicle, allowing every day to unfold according to personal interests and curiosity.

One morning may be spent exploring hidden coves accessible only by boat. Another might reveal coastal trails, local fishing communities or long lunches overlooking the ocean. There is no fixed schedule, only the freedom to discover this remarkable region at your own pace.

Like every Awasi property, the experience feels highly individual. Guests are not following an itinerary; they are creating one.

The result is a journey that feels intimate, authentic and deeply connected to place.
