Kenoa is a private beachfront sanctuary designed for relaxation. The resort’s style is described by architect Osvaldo Tenorio in turns as eco-chic and indigenous: calming textiles, local wood and stone, original artwork by native craftsmen, and rooms that promote connection to nature. Privacy, luxury, simplicity, and tranquility are the stated objectives.
Kenoa is a Member of the Design Hotels collection and it is located near Barra de Sao Miguel, approximately one hour by road southwest of the Maceio airport (MCZ).
The Resort’s golden beach is partially sheltered by reef, creating natural tide pools at one end and allowing gentle waves at the other.
