When is a hotel more than a place to sleep? When does it become an iconic expression of a destination; interpreted through trend-defying tropical design fantasy, celebrating cultural exchange and conservation aspirations while evolving over a 15-year period to become the protagonist of an entire micro-economy – circular in all aspects – built upon equal parts craft and education?

This dream project is UXUA Casa Hotel & Spa by Dutch designer Wilbert Das, a former creative director and design director for the fashion label Diesel who changed his life by moving to Brazil. Named after the indigenous Pataxó word for wonderful, UXUA is located in the heart of the colonial fishing village of Trancoso, Bahia, and has captured the imagination of design-savvy fans worldwide and an international, fiercely loyal clientele who’ve collectively selected the resort as the best in the world (Conde Nast Traveler’s Readers' Choice Awards 2021).

“One sheds one’s sense of self as if taking off a winter coat, becoming one with people – all people,” says the book’s author, Lidewij Edelkoort. "The property looks unpretentious but is incredibly well conceived, each detail taken care of, each aspect crafted by hand, each piece of furniture recycled or designed; a rare mix of hand and head resulting in an organic modernist style with a Brazilian make-do aesthetic. The historical architecture has proportions that embrace the body and soul while the colourful painted details add to a heightened sense of abstraction that somehow overwhelms all notions of rational thinking. This must be what the scriptures call paradise."

Produced locally under the direction of Lili Tedde, beautifully designed by Mariola López Mariño, and printed using the highest quality techniques and materials, ‘UXUA UTOPIA: A Very Gifted Guest House’ is a visually-stunning collector’s object that reinvents the coffee-table book format by combining the lifestyle elements of design, art, food, craft and travel to explore UXUA’s achievements in establishing humanitarian values for a new world; a very local project that strives to create social impact. For these reasons, the book received 1st Place for Publishing at Fedrigoni’s Top Award in 2025. Indeed, this is more than a book: part trend book, part style bible, part life philosophy manual, ‘UXUA UTOPIA’ is a unique design tool for aesthetic activism that revives hope, happiness and the conscience.

Read it!!! It's so good!
Format: Kindle
I will reccomend this book to anyone and everyone who is looking for an omegaverse book to read! The rabbit hole of male omega books this one sent my mood reading self down was crazy! 🤭 I could not have loved Finn more! He was the sweetest omega, making sure Cammie was comfortable each step of building a relationship with him and Reid. He was so good with the kids even though Ben was a little rough around the edges. Cammie's fears were all justified but the way she learned to trust her new pack was sweet! They just continued to show up and her sister was hilarious! Being a mom and thinking of her littles but also finding her own happiness was such a sweet journey for her 💖 lets just talk about the kids for a second and say Em is a spitfire and I LOVE her and Ben sweet Ben just wants to protect his Mama but needs love, Reid does such a good job stepping up! And the 'gift' at the end had me in tears!! 🥹 Without giving too much away that is why I think sweet Finn is my favorite of all male omegas I have ever read! His way with words no matter what he is using them for, declarations of love, pep talks, or advice he really just knows what needs to be said 💖

I wanted to like this more than I did
Format: Kindle
This started off so well! I thought it was going to take Lola on a run for her money but it ended up getting weird. I liked the writing but there was just too much spice which I didn't think was possible for me. There were too many times that the writing felt weird or the situations too outlandish and unrealistic. I had to skim through a lot of the later half. It might just be the dynamic between the characters that didn't work for me so I'll give this author another go.

love love love!!
Format: Kindle
Unwanted is the perfect hurt/comfort romance read. I LOVE an OV romance where the beta is the center of the story and Song delivers a heartfelt story of a single mom to 2, burned by her alpha-hole ex starting her life over in the small town of Knotty Pines. Reid and Finn are an alpha/omega pair who’ve been together since they scent matched as teenagers, they’ve always known someone was missing in their lives and they’ll stop at nothing to prove to Cammie that her, Em & Ben are everything they always wanted. I couldn’t put this one down - Song tugs at your heart strings, and gives you vulnerable, real and lovable characters with depth and relatability. The book is so well paced, detailed to perfection without overdoing it or straying, I really honestly loved the flow and details in this story and the banter and humor had me smiling throughout this read. This was the perfect hurt/comfort, who did this to you, fated mates, stop at nothing to get the girl romance that I’ll be recommending for the foreseeable future!!

Oh this was adorable and cozy and spicy
Format: Kindle
Oh this was adorable and cozy and spicy and I had so much fun with this book! The relationship between Cammie, Finn and Reid is good. I love how doting both men are of her and her kids, always providing them with a safe space to be themselves. They were patient with Ben and I loved seeing that represented in this book. The plot was done well and it was well paced with quiet, family moments as well as drama to keep us on our toes. I do wish we'd gotten more moments just between Finn and Reid to showcase their strong relationship (they've been together for two decades!) and while we got something, both men were first and foremost focused on Cammie. It makes sense why this was, there was a lot of hurt that needed to be soothed and I'm glad she is treated like the queen she is, but I did yearn for more of the alpha-omega couple.

A Beta’s Dream!
Format: Kindle
I loved this book!! Unwanted follows Cammie, a single mom and Beta, working two jobs, trying her best to raise a son and daughter since her a$$hole ex Alpha kicked them out after meeting his scent match. Being a Beta from the wrong side of the tracks, Cammie is often the victim of rumors and blatant disrespect from several alphas in town; and while in a panic searching for her daughter who somehow managed to wander outside of the home, she finds herself in a panic when she comes across a police officer. Rather than help her, Cammie finds herself feeling threatened and helpless against the alpha’s behavior. That’s when Reid, one of her Alpha neighbors (and super hot firefighter) swoops in to her rescue. Sparks fly, but Cammie thinks nothing of it since she is so used to being disregarded. Little does she know, Reid goes home to his Omega, the adorable and caring Finn, and confesses that he thinks he’s met their match. What follows is a beautiful hurt/comfort romance, with lots of steam, and found family perfection! Reid and Finn worship Cammie and absolutely adore her kids. They’ll do anything to protect them and cherish them, to erase all the hurt and rejection that their bio dad put them through. It’s such a heart warming and emotional story—perfect for when you’re feeling like something low angst with princess treatment for not just Cammie, but her kids as well. I definitely recommend picking this one up!!
