Finding decent accommodation in Brazil can be tricky so here are my hidden gems, the top 5 places to stay in Brazil off the beaten track.

Why the undiscovered island of Boipeba, two-hours south of Salvador, is one of my favourite places in Brazil and Bahia’s hidden gem.

Combine a five-star luxury hotel with the friendliness of a backpacker hostel and you get the Windtown Resort & Spa in Cumbuco.

A night at this hidden gem in Brazil’s Chapada Diamantina might seem a bit random but come the morning all will be revealed.

The luxurious Pousada Mangabeiras may be off the beaten track but it’s worth the effort to get to this hidden gem and Boipeba’s best pousada.
