About
AFRO-BRAZILIAN
Brazilian Baroque meets Yoruba craftsmanship
Nestled in the quiet fishing community of Museyo Village, ConchaVilla is an authentic Afro-Brazilian-themed beach and grill house dedicated to providing a unique beach retreat experience for our guests. We began 17 years ago as a private beach residence and have now opened our doors to select guests.
Afro-Brazilian coastal style is a vibrant cultural blend of African traditions and Brazilian seaside culture, with deep roots in regions like Bahia. This distinctive aesthetic is visible across architecture, fashion, religion, and cuisine, creating a rich tapestry of influences.
In coastal cities like Lagos, Nigeria, the descendants of formerly enslaved Afro-Brazilians introduced a unique architectural style. This incorporated Portuguese-Brazilian baroque designs, like intricate floral patterns, curved windows, and arched doorways, with traditional Yoruba craftsmanship.
Afro-Brazilian houses were built for privacy and often featured central courtyards and windows to improve airflow in the coastal climate.
Beach Front
We are right on the peaceful, sandy beaches of Museyo Private Beach, where the gently lapping waves of the Atlantic Ocean tickle your bare feet and soothe away the stress of urban living. Watch as the fishermen bring in the day's catch of fresh seafood, or simply sit and commune with nature.
The villas
Enjoy the unique character of our accommodation range, from our traditional Afro-Brazilian-styled wooden beach house to the modern villa with beach-facing deluxe rooms and a 2-room VIP suite. All rooms come with modern amenities for an intimate getaway, private party, or company retreat for up to 20 people. The villa includes a swimming pool, pool house performance stage, outdoor sit-out, fire pit, and a functional office. 24-hour security and a private chef are available
Beach Grills
Come and savour our authentic Brazilian-style churrasco BBQs. Whether it's fish, shrimp, lobsters, or meats, our beach grills are slowly roasted on charcoal pit skewers. We are proud to call this our house specialty. We also have a functioning smoker, underground tandoor grill, and pizza oven.
Ideas
At its core, ConchaVilla is a space for creative expression and innovation. We started over 20 years ago as a creative retreat. We now carry on the legacy with a series of creative residential retreats and events for creators, innovators, and makers.
