Kitejuba Bungalows

I tried Posada Gamela, KWW and Kitejuba. In my oppinion the best place to stay in tatajuba.´Each Bungalow has very nice details. Can recommend it to people how look for remote places, even on a remote place. The owner Luciana is great, she takes care of everything one needs. Breakfast is delicious and diversified. Afternoon can come a oysters boy, can also just recommend. Dinner can sometimes be taken in the Pousada but not everyday. But close to kitejuba is IslaKite-restaurant, what is the best restaurante in tatajuba. Only thing what is missing is a BeachBoy for starting and landing the kites,

Nice Host and Good kitespot

I spent 5 days in this paradise during August 2017 (with my wife, both kitesurfers), I stayed in the UpWind Bungalow (1st floor). There are no words to describe what you feel when you wake up with the sun and you have the sea in front of you, unbelievable landscape together with a sensation of freedom and relax….only nature around you! The room is really nice and big, all made by wood, there is also a small kitchen area if you want to cook something. Daily accurate cleaning, breakfast was super with handmade cakes and fresh fruit/juices. Luciana (the owner) is super kind providing you all the necessary comfort you need, including trying to teach me Portuguese  . Inside the area you have all the space to put your kite equipment and eventually to wash it. When there is full tide/full moon…..the lagoon in front of your room is also fully filled in and you can kite, otherwise there is the big lagoon going upwind. With a small walk on the beach you can also find some restaurants for dinner. During the night you can admire a really beautiful sky full of stars with no noises except the relaxing sound of the nature…..including blowing of the wind. Talking about the wind….every day from 11-12am starts to blow and during my stay was around 25/30kn….really every day! Epic flat water sessions! Definitively I will recommend this place, I left a piece of my heart there and I am looking forward to come back …hopefully next year!

The pousada is nice, but it's not the best choice for kiters. It's a long walk (10min or more) to acess the water at the ocean, and about 15min to the kite station at the lagoon. There is no kite storage (other than at the lagoon), and you'll have to bring everything including a pump, they don't have any equipment. We were a little surprised that no one spoke any English, luckily we could speak a mix of Spanish-Portugese to communicate. The owner was available via Whatsapp, but given the time difference between Europe and Brazil, we couldn't solve all problems right away. Our first apartment had a bad bug infestation (literally hundreds of termites came into the bathroom), but no staff was available. Thankfully other guests took their car to drive to the managers home to get the key to another apartment). Other than that, the apartments are beautiful and clean, the whole surroundings are well thought through. Good place to relax!

Kitesurfer Heaven......comfortable and idyllic beach chalets right on the lagoon complete with kitchen and everything needed for long stays. No need for windfinder just lie on the balcony until the wind arrives at 11 every day. Set in a beautiful tropical garden with great Brazilian style breakfast. At the end of the day you can kite right to the gate ! Great kitesurfing host who can help with arranging downwinds too !
