Palácio Tangará

An urban oasis tucked away in one of the world’s busiest cities (São Paulo), this property invites guests to escape reality in indoor and outdoor pool spaces designed to reflect the colors, textures and biodiversity of Brazil’s natural landscapes. Unwind on a luxurious sun lounger, in a cabana or under an umbrella, all overlooking the lush scenery.

 

Awasi Santa Catarina

Twenty-five ocean-facing villas lie between Brazil’s Atlantic rainforest and the crystalline waters of the Emerald Coast, and it’s here where guests can find an ultra-private resort dedicated toward relaxation and recovery. Start the day by enjoying a private plunge from the comfort of your villa or head to the ocean-facing infinity pool for coastline views.

The Bahamas is the Place to Be for the Ultimate Multigen Thanksgiving Experience

This Thanksgiving, family travelers should swap dishes and stress for sun and sand. The Bahamas is emerging as a multigen destination of choice thanks to short flights from the United States, making it easy for the whole family to gather and spend quality time together.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
