Nannai Resort and Spa

0 1 2 3 4

Nannai is a superb beach resort offering both relaxation and activities on the pearl-white sands of Brazil's northeast Atlantic coast.

Close to Recife, one of Brazil’s most dynamic cities, yet in a peaceful setting worlds away from the urban vibrancy of that Atlantic port, the beautiful first class beach property Nannai is a tropical paradise. A well planned Polynesian-style resort, it has meandering pools interspersing the superb guest rooms and villas; open-plan relaxation spaces and wooden boardwalks.

There’s plenty of room for everyone to find space and privacy within Nannai’s gorgeous palm-studded grounds. The resort’s centrepiece is its vast freeform pool and semi open-air restaurant where you can dine in the ocean breeze. Nights can be especially magical, with atmospheric lighting and a sociable atmosphere.

Nannai sits above Muro Alto beach facing the Atlantic Ocean, and there’s a sheltered arc of white sand in front of the hotel which is suitable for swimming.
