Oka da Mata at a glance

Why choose Oka da Mata?

• Real immersion in the Mata Atlântica, with the ocean still in view: the hotel is fully surrounded by native forest, yet the pool, the terrace and several suites still look out over the treetops to the sea.
• Breakfast without leaving the suite: it's served straight to the room or on a terrace with a view, with a full spread of bread, fruit, juice and coffee.
• A social area built for more than the pool: alongside the pool and deck, there's a pool table and board games like backgammon and checkers outdoors.
• Suites with their own personality, not one-size-fits-all: there's a unit with a balcony and ocean view, one spread over two levels, another with a freestanding tub by the window, and one with a living room and its own kitchenette.

What are the suites at Oka da Mata like?

The hotel's photos show at least four different suite styles. One has its own balcony with a breakfast table and the ocean visible through the trees. Another is arranged over two levels, with the bed set beneath a row of sunset artworks. A third adds a separate living room with a freestanding tub by the window. And a fourth combines the bedroom and living room with its own kitchenette (fridge, microwave and coffee machine), useful for longer stays. Every room photographed shares the same identity: solid wood, white linens and ethnic-inspired wall pieces, with a courtesy bathrobe and a fresh flower as a welcome touch.

Where is Oka da Mata located?

Oka da Mata sits in Tibau do Sul, inside the stretch of Mata Atlântica that separates the hotel from the beachfront strip — you get there by car or transfer, not on foot from the center of Praia da Pipa. In exchange, its elevated spot inside the forest keeps the ocean in view from the pool and from several suites, something uncommon for a stay this deep in the vegetation.

What's included in a stay at Oka da Mata?

• Outdoor pool with deck, loungers and umbrellas.
• Breakfast served in the room or on a terrace with a view.
• Pool table and board games (backgammon, checkers) in the social area.
• Courtesy bathrobe in the room.

Who is Oka da Mata best for?

Oka da Mata suits couples and small groups looking for real quiet, tucked inside the forest, without giving up the ocean view from the pool or the balcony. The in-suite breakfast and welcome touches (bathrobe, fresh flower) also make it a good pick for marking a special occasion. If you'd rather have the town center and the beach within walking distance, it's worth pairing it with a few nights somewhere more central: the draw here is the Mata Atlântica, not a walk to the sand.

How do you get to Oka da Mata?
