UXUA Casa Hotel & Spa is a boutique hotel and Almescar spa located in Trancoso, Bahia, Brazil that was designed and built by Wilbert Das, Creative Director of Italian label Diesel S.p.A.[1] from 1993 to 2009.

The hotel has casas and a tree house that is around an area called "the quadrado", which is a Unesco World Heritage Site.[2] The casas are houses that were renovated, and some of them date to the 16th century.[1] The property also has two restaurants.[1]

Festa de Sáo Brás

[edit]

In 2011 Wilbert Das was appointed festeiro (honorary host) of Festa de Sáo Brás, a religious festival held every February 3 as a tradition dating back to colonial times in Trancoso. The event was captured by Brazilian director Cisma, in a short film he produced.
