We are ESG activists

Environmental, Social and Governance, that is: Environmental, Social and Governance. 25 years ago, we were born committed to environmental, social and governance practices, and today, we have this increasingly solid flag in all sectors of our inn.

Welcome to authentic sustainability, where every action makes a difference!

Michelangelo Pistoletto, one of the greatest masters of contemporary art in the world, created in 2003 the Third Paradise, symbolized by a New Symbol of Infinity. This easy-to-understand but at the same time theoretically complex visual representation represents the Natural World, a First Paradise in which humans were completely integrated with nature. And the Artificial World, a Second Paradise developed by human intelligence, composed only of artificial forms.

The junction of these two paradises creates the Third Paradise, a new humanity,a world conducive to cultural and social evolution.

Today it is essential to use the formula of creation to bring a new model of society. Create a harmonious balance between two worlds in duality through a new creation. We support the Third Paradise.

The wind always knew, but now it's official

We are a Certified B Corporation: part of the global business community that makes a positive impact on people and the planet.

For 27 years, Vila Kalango and Rancho do Peixe have grown with respect for the land, our people and the natural pace of life. In 2026, this journey gained international recognition with B Corp Certification, awarded by B Lab to businesses that demonstrate good social, environmental and management practices.

In practice, we continue as always: preserving the environment, valuing people in the region, choosing responsibly sourced food and taking care of water, energy and waste seriously. Being B is not a finish line, but an ongoing commitment to improve, measure our impact, and evolve.

Come live the B-side of the Terra do Vento.

ENVIRONMENTAL PRACTICES

Only 8% of our land is built on.

Sustainability and environmental preservation are fundamental, since our foundation, we have adopted several initiatives to ensure that our operations respect and protect the environment around us.

Our bungalows are built with local and natural materials, ensuring that the structure harmonizes with the environment. This choice minimizes environmental impact and provides an authentic and comfortable experience for our guests.

We use our solar power plant to reduce carbon emissions and help us to be more self-sufficient energetically. We practice selective garbage collection and encourage recycling among our guests and staff, thus contributing to the local cooperative, Coopbravo. In addition, we have implemented the composting of organic waste, transforming it into fertilizer for our garden and vegetable garden.

We have implemented responsible water management. Our bathrooms are equipped with water-saving devices, such as low-flow faucets and showers. We use an ecological wastewater treatment system throughout the inn, which allows us to use this water for crops that enrich our gardens, in addition to a localized irrigation system. All of this ensures the balanced use of this precious resource.

We preserve the native vegetation around the inn and maintain green areas that serve as habitat for several local species. We work in partnership with conservation organizations to protect local wildlife and promote biodiversity.

Social Practices

We love Ceará and its people.

Priorizamos a contratação e a capacitação de pessoas da comunidade local, que passam a fazer parte da nossa história e crescem conosco.

Várias dessas histórias estão por trás dos contos do Rancho do Peixe. Convidamos artistas da região para integrarem conosco em eventos e feiras de artesanato local, para que assim, nossos hóspedes possam viver ainda mais a cultura nativa daqui.

In harmony with the S.E.R Institute, we promote training for the region, prioritizing the development of responsible and sustainable tourism. So that future generations can enjoy this refuge. We promote, together with the municipal and technical schools in the region, an immersion for students to experience the practices of hospitality and have their first contact with the profession.

Governance Practices

Acreditamos que nosso sucesso está intrinsecamente ligado ao bem-estar da comunidade que nos acolhe. Por isso, trabalhamos em estreita colaboração com os moradores locais, oferecendo oportunidades de emprego e formação. Desenvolvemos projetos educacionais, como a Escola Ecoar, que visa promover a educação ambiental e a sustentabilidade entre hóspedes e comunidade.

Transparency and ethics are fundamental pillars of our governance practices, and we maintain an open-door policy so that employees and guests can voice their concerns or suggestions.

Innovation and adaptation are essential components of our governance approach. The hospitality industry is constantly evolving, and we at Rancho do Peixe pride ourselves on being at the forefront of trends and innovations. Whether it's implementing new technologies to improve energy efficiency or creating new guest experiences, we're always looking for ways to innovate and adapt to changing markets and our customers' needs.

Climate Guardians Destination

Tourism with purpose, climate in balance!

Live unforgettable days and still help preserve our region.

Have you ever imagined traveling to a paradise destination and, instead of leaving negative traces, actively contributing to the preservation of nature and the well-being of those who live here?

This is the proposal of the project Guardians of the Climate: Rancho do Peixe joins the S.E.R Institute in order to transform the way we live tourism. Here, each visit of yours can be part of a positive cycle of environmental regeneration and social justice.

It works like this: Businesses in the region have their carbon emissions measured and offset. With these resources, family farmers and traditional local communities receive financial support to adopt sustainable practices, recover degraded areas and care for the land with wisdom and affection.

Through reforestation projects, production of healthy food and preservation of biodiversity, when you choose to stay or participate in events committed to this model, you are also part of this chain of good.

It's not just about tourism. It's about belonging, respecting, giving back to nature all that it offers.

In conjunction with the Instituto S.E.R we carry out actions in Rancho do Peixe. S.E.R stands for the Portuguese words Sustentabilidade, Essência e Raízes: Sustainability, Essence and Roots. The Institute operates with a focus on sustainable tourism, the recovery of local memories and the appreciation of human beings.

We promote projects and actions that preserve the environment, as well as protecting the physical, social and cultural identity of communities. We make community inhabitants aware of the importance of sustainable tourism, training and empowering them.

We encourage the development of Sustainable Tourism, respecting the essence of the place. Therefore, we identify and support hotels and inns that promote sustainability, preserve the environment and the culture/memory of communities.
