Vilaveratheresa
VilaVeraTheresa is a small, stylish hotel on the coast at Pontal de Maceió, in Fortim. A relaxed, charming little hotel a short walk to one of the best kite spots in the area, with flat-water lagoons. Simple comfortable rooms, three pools and good fresh food.
Accommodation is a mix of bungalows and suites, kept natural, simple and comfortable. Each room sleeps two, and the hotel keeps things adult and peaceful rather than family-focused, so it suits couples and kite travellers best. There are no dedicated sea-view rooms, though parts of the hotel look out to the water, and you get daily maid service and towels for the pool and beach.
There's one restaurant and bar, open through the day from late morning until half ten at night. Lunch is the simple pleasure of a caipirinha and freshly caught fish under the palm trees, which is hard to beat after a session on the water. For downtime there are three outdoor pools, open all year.
On land there's padel, horse riding at sunrise or sunset, and quad and buggy tours around Pontal de Maceió and Fortim, with buggies running down the coast as far as Canoa Quebrada. There's a coworking space if you need to get some work done, and a 24-hour concierge.
