⋅ GUIDELINES ⋅
1. Check-in
📍We usually ask guests to share their live location once they’re in the taxi or en route, so we can meet you at the front gate. That way, we can guide you to the entrance, introduce you to the dogs (who take their job of guarding the house—and greeting new faces—very seriously), and help the system register your face for later automatic recognition at the house door.
While we're generally flexible with arrival times, our life is spread across two places—this home in the city and our property on the island. Sometimes one of us is managing the island retreat while the other juggles school drop-offs, home routines, and pet duties. So we truly appreciate it when check-ins can be more or less planned in advance. Just let us know your estimated time, and we’ll be there to welcome you. 🧭
2. House Rules
🎥️ Cameras: For everyone’s safety, there are outdoor security cameras around the property. They do not record inside your room, of course, nor on the terrace, where there's a tub and an outside shower. Your privacy is sacred.
🚭️ Smoking: No smoking indoors, please. You’re welcome to smoke outside—just be kind to nature and use the ashtrays or bins provided.
🥂 Minibar: There’s a small minibar on the terrace. We occasionally leave wine and beer. Ask us for prices and they will be charged separately. Enjoy!
🤫 Quiet Hours: To keep the vibe tranquil for everyone, we ask for quiet hours between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM, in line with local law. But it's also true that in Bahia, cultural rhythms and celebrations sometimes stretch beyond those limits. Sound systems, parties, or even spontaneous gatherings can happen with a certain spontaneity that doesn’t always align with the law—or with what travelers might expect. In the nearby Museum of Modern Art for example, there's a space for open air concerts. In winter there are lovely Jazz concerts which you can enjoy from our terrace. In summer music tends to be really loud, on Fridays or Saturdays, some concerts are really nice actually, others less, but they at least tend to finish at 10:00 PM as per law.

4. Breakfast
🥐️ With a view – and a chat: We offer a hearty and healthy breakfast at flexible times on the small first-floor balcony, overlooking a blooming bougainvillea and All Saints Bay. Guests are always welcome to join us in the kitchen while we prepare it – no formalities, just warmth. From there, you'll discover a tranquil lounge area with a small wooden deck suspended over a koi pond, tucked into the heart of our leafy patio. It's a rare oasis in Salvador and one of the house's most intimate treasures. 🌞
5. Housekeeping
🧺 Keeping it simple, with care. While our space is relaxed and informal, daily housekeeping is included – thanks to Natalie, our kind-hearted and discreet helper, who ensures everything stays fresh and inviting during your stay. If you need anything, we're just around the courtyard. 🧹
6. Care & Damages
🪴 Our home has been designed and built with great care, using artisanal materials and handcrafted pieces that make each space truly unique. We kindly ask all guests to treat the house and its furnishings with the same care and appreciation.
Please note that many items—whether furniture, ceramics, fabrics, or fixtures—are custom made or sourced locally, and replacing them is not always simple or immediate. What might seem like a small damage can take time to repair or replace, which affects the experience of the next guests. If any accidental damage occurs, please let us know as soon as possible so we can address it promptly and fairly.
Thank you for helping us preserve the charm and integrity of this special place for everyone who stays here. 🌿
