Praia do Marceneiro on Alagoas’s Rota dos Milagres forms the setting for Paru Boutique Hotel, where twenty suites and bungalows sit between coconut palms, warm shallows and low-slung gardens. Angeli Leão’s architecture combines stone, timber, thatch and regional Brazilian pieces, allowing sea air and greenery to shape the interiors. Accommodation ranges from compact suites to expansive bungalows with terraces and private pools, while Paru Bistro, Spa Paru, the beachfront pool and shaded social spaces keep the focus close to the shore. Timber decks, pale stone walls and rows of palms frame the pool and beachfront paths.
