Overview
A destination for the adventurous traveller, Atins is the ideal base camp from where to explore the famous Lençóis Maranhenses due to its immediate access to both the park and the sea. With its huge sheltered lagoons, flat waters and steady and reliable cross/onshore winds of 15-30 knots, Atins is also one of the top spots for all kiteboarders.
Based on a lasting love for the marvellous village of Atins, its nature and people, the Convento first came to the fore in 2016 as a holiday house. The large terrain has now been transformed into a beautiful garden in which guests will find a tranquil, relaxing and personal experience of a home away from home. Set in half a hectare full of coconut palms, a grove of cashew trees and tastefully decorated, the Convento invites you to relax and kick back. In less than 100m you will find yourselves at the beach or in the nearest restaurant. For kiters the Convento offers purpose-built facilities. And if you’re into yoga there’s a fully equipped open-air studio.
Convento Arcádia has been carefully developed in harmony with its surroundings to provide for a unique and cosy atmosphere. Its outdoor kitchen is designed for dinner parties to the sound of the sea and the large verandas provide ample shaded space to relax and kick back with a good read in one of the many hammocks.
The main house offers three rooms, two doubles and one large suite with a double and two single beds, and sleeps a total of eight people. These rooms can also be booked individually. In addition, four chalets each feature their own large private veranda. Two chalets come with a large double and two single beds, two others feature two additional single beds on a mezzanine.
All rooms come with ensuite baths and are tastefully arranged and decorated. Breakfast will be served on the main house’s veranda and rooms are cleaned on a daily basis. The kitchen is ready for you to prepare meals at your own convenience, just be prepared to bring some essentials from Barreirinhas or São Luís as the choice of groceries in Atins is very basic.
