Butterfly House Bahia

Getting here requires some combination of Jeep, speedboat, bus, and truck, which is either an adventure or a warning, depending on your temperament. Butterfly House is a small, sustainably built pousada-style resort on Brazil's Maraú Peninsula, with eleven rooms and bungalows made from salvaged wood. The beach bar pours caipirinhas, the breakfast table groans with tropical fruit, and the nearest crowd is somewhere very far away.
