Overview - Located on a 250-acre coconut plantation, Txai is a posh eco-resort lining the edge between the dense rainforest and the white sand beach. The service and facilities are first-rate, while the ecological impact is minimized through sensitive design and reforestation programs. Exquisite bungalows standing on stilts are spread throughout coconut groves, each with a wraparound deck from which to take in the views. The interiors are contemporary-rustic with mosquito-netted beds, vast picture windows, and earth tones. Bathrooms have outdoor showers and some bungalows come with outdoor Jacuzzis or private plunge pools. The ocean-view restaurant serves gourmet cuisine accompanied by a great choice of wines. After dinner rest in the Colonial-style lounge, filled with Brazilian art and furniture, surrounded by a reflecting pool, and enjoy the views.
