If it is not obvious by now, I have a deep admiration and affinity for Salvador and all of Bahia. Whenever I go there, I always try to rent an apartment, even if it is for only a few days.

One of the places I stay is located in the “Corredor da Vitoria” overlooking the bay, nice place and well appointed.

Here is a brief description of the place. It can be found on of my favorite sites – www.vrbo.com.

Newly renovated condo on the bay on the walk between Pelourinho (the Historic Center) and the beaches in Barra. It has the best view of the bay you can find in Salvador. Excellent location for Salvador festivals such as Carnaval, Bonfim, New Years and much more. The condo has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and can sleep up to 10 people. Features include immaculate tile and granite floors, stainless steel appliances, all new closets and cabinetry throughout kitchen hallways and bathrooms. The condo includes cable and high speed wireless Internet, DVD with surround sound and a stereo system. Appliances include large capacity refrigerator and freezer, stove, microwave, washing machine, blender, coffee maker, iron, sandwich press and water filter. Maid service and airport transport available.

Location:
Avenida Sete de Setembro – 2044, Salvador, Bahia

So I begin “Googling” for apartment rentals – was planning on staying 13 days. I am a huge fan of Apartment Rentals while on vacation. Nothing like having a home away from home.

Choose Rosewood Apartments – they provide excellent service. Very knowledgeable and even hooked me up with the local fishing guys to get fresh fish everyday.
