The Pink House was my home during the 10 years I lived in Bahia. I built it as a peaceful place to retire to write and live in the simplicity of a fishermen's neighborhood away from tourism, yet close to downtown and Pelourinho. Today I rent it out to select travelers who really want to experience life in Bahia.

It is located in the neighborhood of Monte Serrat, very close to the beach of Boa Viagem and near the famous church of Bonfim, right on the waterfront, with a beautiful view of the Bay of All Saints (see Neighborhood for pictures and Location for maps of the neighborhood).

It has 1 bedroom with a double bed, bathroom, a quaint kitchen/dining area, and its main feature: a very large atelié/studio with a balcony over the bay, ideal for writers, artists, etc. The atelié has a sofabed and a hammock, and can be used as an extra bedroom.

The house is:

Fully furnished
View of the bay
Wireless internet connection
Utilities included
2 entrances: the "main" entrance is on the waterfront, on a pedestrian-only alley and a back entrance from the street above.

(Discounts available for people going to Brazil for social, environmental, artistic, or similar work)
