New arrivals

This month sees Mr & Mrs Smith’s Brazil collection get a dramatic boost, in the form of five new boutique hotels on the sun-soaked, palm-fringed coast of Bahia, as well as a fabulous luxury city stay in Rio de Janeiro.

Stateside, Mr & Mrs Smith go to Washington, launching DC’s grand and glamorous St Regis hotel (sister of the St Regis in San Francisco), and in the UK, we’ve combed the countryside to bring you a new collection of Cotswolds hotels, including two very exciting – and incredibly stylish – inns.

Next month, we’re heading out east again, with a new China collection, and we’ll be seeking the last of the summer sun at some fantastic boutique hotels in Italy.

	Bahia, Brazil
	Style Jungle gem
	Setting Hipsters’ hang-out Trancoso
Bahia’s peaceful fishing village of Trancoso’s been a choice destination for wanderlust-struck creative types since the Seventies, but Etnia Pousada ups the luxe a notch, offering eight woodland bungalows each styled with a different ethnic influence. In the hands of anyone other than the fashionista/design guru owners, it could all slip into kitsch, but smart, sensitive style prevails – together with an air of absolute serenity and back-to-nature bliss.
