Curuá House
House immersed in beautiful natural landscapes, located in a traditional Amazonian community. It is 3 km from the center of Alter and 1.5 km from the beaches of Alter and 800 m from Igarapés do Caranazal. Great space for family activities, there is a restaurant and traditional culture close by. You will be delighted with the space because of the wild animals that visit the house daily, the environment, the neighborhood and the outdoor area. Great space for couples, individual adventures, children and pets. It has an equipped kitchen, great for socializing and a fabulous bathroom in the middle of the trees.
The Curuá permacultural house is a place to be peaceful and immersed in the Amazon rainforest. Because there are no walls in its social rooms, its guests have a unique interaction with the forest and animals that constantly pass through the forest. It is a house that aims at peace, tranquility with neighbors and private social interaction for those who accommodate in it. The house was built by the owner's own hands, which makes the space unique in its details and stories. A house with an identity that dialogues deeply with the surrounding environment.
Guest access: Guests can use all spaces at Casa Curuá. There are spaces for camping and the living room becomes a hammock.
For those looking for a little more comfort and privacy, the house has a bedroom with a double bed + a hammock. Or an attic for those who come in a large group and want privacy. Mattresses can be accommodated everywhere in the house. Other observations: Casa Curuá is a space that respects the forest. In this way, she has some permacultural rules to better establish a relationship with nature - There are two banana tree vapotranspirator bathrooms using ONLY water. (PLEASE DO NOT THROW TOILET PAPER, ABSORBENT OR OTHER SOLID IN THE VASE !)
- The organic waste is taken to the compost bin behind the kitchen, to turn it into fertilizer and later fertilize the plants in the house.
- The water from the shower irrigates the surrounding plants - The house is rustic but very comfortable and cozy. Which awakens a unique feeling of being in the Amazon rainforest. - The house is also equipped with a 5.1 sound system so guests can listen to music! - The house offers a fan and blender. - There is WiFi internet in the house.
