Prepare to be Amazed




























Truth be told, I am so over summer. The nonstop sweltering heat, teetering on daily triple digits has got me spent. But if I had the opportunity for one last summer hurrah before bidding this season adieu, I would want to spend it here, at the stunning UXUA Casa Hotel. Choose among nine spectacular artisan constructed homes, all the while enjoying 5-star hotel services while nestled in a tiny Bahian fishing village overlooking the sea. Paradise? Yes.

Ya got Me!
The cowboy hat with the pink wall was a major winner in the line up.

Happy to have more of your Summer, since ours has mean beyond mild.

Cheers!

I'm not usually one for the tropical look, but those pics certainly appeal to me now that I've been stuck in cold and windy NorCal all summer! I'll trade you- you can come here and wear a sweater, I'll sweat it out in the heat for a few days :)

Splendid Willow said...

What a concept! How do you even chose where you would like to put your hat down?

Lovely post - as always.

I am taking a small break before the next and final vacation. Just checking in to let you know that you are still adored (: (despite heat and everything).

ox, Mon

You had me at the first photo. The simplicity and comfort of the spaces floats my boat. Thanks for making my morning. Jenny is right, a February posting of the same photos would have us inquiring about a group excursion. Dallas is as hot as a skillet and yet I want to be taken away to the tropics.

Sad thing?? It's probably cooler there than it is where I am. What am I saying - it IS cooler there than where I am! And those ocean breezes would be amazing.

I think I would drink too many margaritas if I were there.... good thing the beds look comfy!

Holy hell, I hear ya. My friggin eyelids are sweating. But a dip in that amazing water might just cure me.
