Brazil can be easily recognized as one of the countries with a unique culture. Looking at its size, however, it’s not hard to acknowledge that the culture and landscapes are diversified within the country itself. Some of the regions are well known among the tourists but some of them still remain undiscovered. One of them is Trancoso – often called a “hidden beach town”. White sands, coconut palms, and candy-colored clay houses – if this doesn’t sound like a paradise then I don’t know what does. Be one of the few people to experience its beauty. Start with booking a place to stay. Read on to see our picks of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Trancoso, Brazil.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on December 18, 2024.

12. A spacious house within walking distance of the beach
This house is a great place for a friends’ trip. It can accommodate six people (with two of them sleeping on the folding sofa). The best thing about this space isn’t even its beautiful interior design, nor is it the fact that you’re going to be served a breakfast every morning. It’s its coziness and being so close to nature that makes staying here truly magical. If you’re lucky enough, you can even spot some monkeys hanging around in the garden. And you don’t need much luck to hear the local birds singing! The house is located within walking distance to the beach and the historical city center. To make it even more special, there is an outdoor swimming pool for the guests!
