The Costao do Santinho Resort has reached another milestone in its history. We were recognized at the Caio 2025 Award, the most important award in Brazil's events and tourism industry, with four trophies, including the Golden Jacaré for Best Beach Resort in Brazil.

The award ceremony took place on July 8 at the Expo Center Norte in São Paulo (SP), attended by our Events Account Manager, Maira Veras, who represented the resort.

In addition to the title of Best Beach Resort, Costao took home three other significant recognitions:

• Golden Jacaré: Environmental Responsibility | Event Enterprises
• Silver Jacaré: Social Responsibility | Event Enterprises
• Bronze Jacaré: Food and Beverages for Events, with the case of our Food Processing and Distribution Center (CPDA)

With these achievements, Costao now totals 27 trophies in 26 editions of the Caio Award, solidifying its position among the most awarded and complete destinations in the country for corporate events, fairs, congresses, conventions, and leisure experiences with excellence.

Commitment to excellence and innovation

According to Daniela Rocco, Commercial and Marketing Director at Costao do Santinho, the awards reflect the consistency of the work carried out over more than three decades:

“Costao has a solid history in hosting events and a permanent commitment to excellence. Being recognized again by the Caio Award demonstrates the market's confidence in our infrastructure, gastronomy, and our team's capacity. Hosting large conventions and events demands preparation, innovation, and hospitality, pillars that we continue to strengthen year after year.”

About the Caio Award

Established in 1999, the Caio Award is promoted by Grupo Conecta Eventos and recognizes the best professionals, companies, and destinations in Brazil's business tourism and events sector.

The trophy shaped like a jacaré is a tribute to businessman Caio de Alcântara Machado, a reference in the sector, and to his iconic phrase:

“One day it's going to be a jacaré.”

A symbol of persistence, vision, and innovation, the phrase reflects the spirit that inspires the professionals and brands recognized by the award.
