My parents had a restaurant with more than 50 years of tradition in a small town in Germany called Palenberg, near Aachen. When I fell in love with a Bahian woman and moved from Germany to São Paulo, working in industry, I began to idealize my pousada in Bahia, with sun, palm trees, sea, moonlit nights and countless stars.

Simply Iolanda
I'm simply Iolanda, the Bahian woman Arno fell in love with.
I'm simply Iolanda and I like the sun, I like the sea, I like painting, I like working, I like doing nothing, I like caipirinha, I like telling stories, I like loving, I like dreaming about the past...
With this...
With the future...
I like this charming place...
Why the name Jambo?
Jambo is a delicately scented fruit
Jambo is fruit that is sometimes pink and sometimes jambo
Jambo is the dark color of Bahia
Jambo is sometimes the color of the rising sun
Jambo is sometimes the color of the setting sun
Jambo is a welcome wish
Jambo, sun and fresh water is sometimes all I want
Jambo is our pousada in Praia da Espera
Jambo is the color of joy.
