Sauipe S.A.

What Sauipe S.A. does

Sauipe S.A. (CNPJ 00.866.577/0001-80) is a Brazilian private limited company (Sociedade Anônima) operating under the unified 'Aviva' master brand alongside group affiliates Companhia Thermas do Rio Quente and Valetur. The company operates two integrated nature-based resort destinations in Brazil: Costa do Sauípe in Bahia (a beach resort complex with six hotel properties, including Sauipe Terra Resort, Sauipe Mar, and the Sauipe Grand Premium Sol and Brisa) and Rio Quente Resorts in Goiás (a thermal hot spring complex with five hotel properties, including Rio Quente Cristal Resort, Hotel Rio Quente Resorts Refúgio Grand Premium, Hotel Pousada, Luupi, Hotel Giardino, and Eco Chalé). The product portfolio spans 10+ all-inclusive and half-board hotel packages, two Hot Park water parks, two private residence clubs (InCasa in Rio Quente and InCanto in Costa do Sauípe) with subscription-based membership models, the Clube de Férias Aviva vacation club, the 24-hour Parque das Fontes thermal park, corporate event venues with capacity up to 3,500 attendees, dedicated wedding services, à la carte restaurants (Baía, Benditos Frutos, La Villa), and two branded spas (Bluma Spa by Natura Ekos, Manacá Spa).

The business operates on a multi-stream revenue model combining transactional package sales (all-inclusive resort stays ranging R$7,755-R$34,779 for 7-8 day family packages with 18x installment payments), one-time day-use water park tickets with dynamic seasonal pricing, recurring vacation club membership fees, and corporate event contracts. Distribution is omnichannel across Brazil: direct website booking (aviva.com.br), the Omnibees third-party booking platform, a centralized call center (4000-1449) covering all Brazilian DDD prefixes, WhatsApp sales channels, travel agency reseller networks, and a dedicated corporate event sales team. Marketing runs through destination-specific Instagram accounts (@costadosauipe, @rioquenteresorts, @hotpark), blog content, and email/WhatsApp newsletters. Operational scale includes 6 km of beaches within a protected Atlantic Forest reserve, conference infrastructure totaling over 4,900 m² of event space across both destinations, and the Praia do Cerrado — claimed as the world's largest artificial hot spring beach — as a signature attraction.
