Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Brazil

The staff were very helpful..the breakfast buffet had a vast and varied selection of food including chicken pie which was delicious. The rooms were large very clean and beds were very comfortable. We chose the hotel for the swimming pool which didn't disappoint. Lovely big pool with plenty of sunbeds ( some uncomfortable) and a nice pool bar and cafe. All of the communal areas were very luxurious and clean.

Excellent hotel and little oasis in a relatively undeveloped and sometimes rundown beachside strip. The hotel is super clean and has minimalist style. The rooms were great, well tended with comfy beds and plenty of sockets big shower and a good tv. The staff were amazing, attentive and friendly. Special thanks to Junior and Mabelle on reception who were fantastic.They also helped with a medical issue we had without fault. In addition the bar,restaurant and poolside staff worked hard to please every request. The hotel bar and restaurant prices were reasonable and good value .Breakfast varied and Brazilian. The amazing Pria do Futuro beach is steps away over the road with plenty of activities and beachside bars and restaurants during the day. (warning they closed with sunset around 1800 at the time we were there).Warning in that the sea is quite rough, great for all the windy water activities. The temperatures were a constant 30degrees when we were there but a consistant and established Fortaleza breeze kept it pleasurable. The main tourist area of Meireles is a 20minute taxi ride away (around BRL20)and offers more restaurant options and great night market. Take a 30min taxi to nearby Beach Park waterpark for a great day out. Not cheap at around BRL280 but a well organised, clean and Disney-esque adventure. Fortaleza is a wonderful and varied place and I would recommend the Hotel Gran Mareiro without a doubt for a holiday, base or trip to this part of amazing Brazil.

Clean, organized, great staff, great breakfast and pool! Beach is great too!

Breakfast, in front of the ocean, big swimming pool. Room was clean

The breakfast was awesome! The pool was fabulous and the hotel is in front of Futuro beach!

Staff were excellent, professional and helpful. Lovely room and great views of Rio. Nice breakfast and good rooftop pool.

Usually I do t write reviews however I have to make an exception this time to express how amazing the entire staff was during our 8 days stay at LSH Laghetto lifestyle. Rooms extremely clean, unbelievable delicious breakfast , a selection that should be illegal lol, and the front desk receptionist is so friendly that makes you think if people Like that truly exist …. Kudos to Alan, Vinicius, and the entire crew of that amazing place… I can’t wait to come back to Rio and stay there again…. LSH!!! You rock!!! Thank you for all you did for my husband and I. Eternally thankful

This hotel was amazing!! I felt so welcomed as soon as I walked in the door! Receptionist Vinicius was super nice! They helped to charge my portable charger at the front desk when my adapter no longer worked! All staff members helped to facilitate Uber pick up and drop off! Because I spoke Portuguese it was easier to build a good relationship with them! They were so respectful, informative and made sure I made it to my destination and back safely seeing I was a solo traveler! I will DEFINITELY book with them again when I go back! Thank you!!

Can and stayed for 10 nights with the boyfriend we had the absolute best experience here straight from checking in. Had such a lovely welcome. The room was perfect and was cleaned every day with fresh towels. Breakfast included, great selection which changes. Beautiful fresh cakes. The balcony was lovely we had a sea and also mountain view. The beach is seconds away. Perfect location, couple min drive to a strip with lots of bars/restaurants. There is also 24/7 room service which is very reasonably priced. We will be coming back. Thank you to all the amazing staff

Nice place, right on the beach. Value for your money. The reservation desk is promptly in reply and the checkin was very friendly and helpful. Bed is really good and comfortable. Breakfast is also really nice. Only 2 things: Spa is closed and it is a bit strange to be charged for making a coffee in your room with the Nespresso, never had that before, should be included.

The Belmond exceeds expectations. Upon arrival, we were greeted and cleansed of any concern. The staff pays attention to detail, accommodating any request. The property is historical and meaningful, encouraging relaxation and a connection with nature. All facilities are within comfortable walking distance and easily accessible. The Belmond, at its best, offers an exceptional breakfast experience-something to look forward to and reminisce. The pool complements the hotels beauty, alongside the animals, who are familiar with the property and curious. However, one improvement the Belmond should consider-the dinner experience at IPE (the smaller restaurant, poolside) did not meet expectations. While the food is amazing, the service was not consistent. Otherwise, excellent destination and a memorable experience. Special thank you to Rodrigo for being very friendly and accommodating at our arrival

Nice pool, great pool service, restaurant employees are outstanding, wonderful room amenities

There’s so much to praise here. The location jn the national park is ideal and worth getting up early to see the falls before the crowds arrive. The views of Devils Throat are sensational. The pool area is simply world class and the staff are exceptional too. It is SO relaxing. All the dining options and bars were outstanding too. Feels luxury and the staff are so professional. Really good choices. The sunset from the tower is incredible too and well worth a visit. We did the safari tour which is out of this world and a must do. The only negative was I emailed through a feather allergy which was acknowledged. When we arrived the room had feather pillows and duvets. I went to reception and it was resolved but there was no real apology or offer of a new room. No one checked up either to see if I had a severe reaction to the feather. No follow up whatsoever. For the price point it was a really disappointing error to make and then compounded with the lack of customer service. It is not what you’d expect in a 5 star hotel.

I cannot say enough about this place, it is pure magic and simply stunning! Design, decor, food/drink, experiences and service are all top notch. Enjoying the park before and after opening hours was worth the price of gold! Culinary offerings were exceptional, with casual dining in Ipe Restaurant and an exquisite Michelin 2-star tasting menu in Y Restaurant that blew our minds away. Lots of options for cocktails as well, my favorite was the outdoor patio at sunset. Spa was small but tasteful, with incredible treatments that embrace the local culture and flair. Swimming pool was an oasis in itself, relaxing and overlooking the beautiful gardens. Lastly, are the indescribably perfect experiences that bring you right to the Falls at all hours of the day. I recommend the First Light and Full Moon walks which take you inside the park before it opens to the public. Also, Macuso Safari boat ride must not be missed - exhilarating fun, but prepare to get wet! Belmond Hotel das Cataratas is the only place to stay when visiting Iguassu Falls... while we came a long distance to experience it, we are already looking forward to coming back!

Several months later we are still talking about our stays at the Belmond. We found the service to be outstanding and our rooms (we enjoyed two separate short stays within about a week) were excellent. The access to Iguazú Falls—being located inside the national park—was really worth the exorbitant cost… we got up really early in the morning to walk the trails and view the falls before the rest of the tourists arrived. Such a spectacular experience to be almost the only people there among so much beauty. Breakfasts were generous and very good and we also enjoyed dinner in the same restaurant. We appreciated the shuttle that took us to the park entrance…almost to the bird park. The grounds of the hotel are lovely, with a nice pool. There’s access to a tower that offers spectacular views of the falls. We saw some striking birds on the grounds as well as coatis and guinea pigs. Also, we appreciated excellent service from the concierge desk. This was a big splurge for us but we didn’t regret it one bit.

very nice location near the ocean, great green territory, rabbits, toucan and parrots living where, spacious room with big comfortable bed facing the ocean, very nice beach, ocean with natural pools where small fishes swim, several pools including infinite pool facing the ocean, delicious food into restaurant

Pools were very nice, our room (suite with “pool”) was wonderful, the birds & other animals on the property were a great unexpected bonus.

The location is absolutely stunning – nestled between two beaches, it offers the unique opportunity to enjoy both sunrise and sunset. The rooms are fine, though not outstanding, but since most of the time is spent outside, this is not a major drawback. The pool area is beautiful and well maintained. There are plenty of activities for children throughout the day, and in the evenings guests can enjoy live music or other entertainment. The food is excellent, with a wide variety of options, and the service is outstanding – attentive and genuinely kind.

The property is fantastic. There are many leisure options for adults and kids, the pools are great and the sunset is marvelous. The dinner and breakfast are fantastic: there were several options and everything was delicious. There are also many animals, and my kid loved the opportunity to meet Macaws and Toucan. I’d definitely return to stay more days in the future.

The resort is amazing! Very family friendly and great atmosphere. They have very clean rooms, restaurants, pools and beaches. Best part is the amount of animals you will find there. Rabbits, araras, monkeys, tucanos etc They have recreation time with kids and adults and super friendly employees. I will definitely be back and bring my entire family next time

Everything was amazing. The private pool is a great idea if you want to stay away from all guests

Amazing hotel, very clean, the private swimming pool is a great idea if you don’t want to share a pool. We’ve enjoyed a beer or two in our pool.

A pousada é nova, bem organizada e limpa. Os quartos são novos e a cama muito boa. O banheiro é amplo e o chuveiro muito bom (ressalva abaixo). O café da manhã é excelente. O atendimento é perfeito, todos muito simpáticos. A Agencia de Turismo XP: o pessoal é competente e atendem superbem. Recomendo. Recomendo e voltarei. Ressalvas sobre a estadia: - Banheiro: há o retorno do cheiro do esgoto e isso causa um desconforto par ficar no quarto (pelo menos para mim e no quarto que fiquei - ap. 21) Sugestão: O café da manhã nos fins de semana e períodos de eventos (ex. Festival de Inverno) poderia se estender até às 10h

O local parece ter sido construído recentemente (tudo está novo) fica bem localizado, perto dos restaurantes e comércio de Bonito. O atendimento foi cordial e vi muitos funcionários organizando e limpando tanto os ambientes externos como internos, o que garante o ambiente bem cuidado. O quarto era bem higienizado, cama e travesseiros confortáveis, possuia smartv e tinha espaço adequado para 2 pessoas. Com um bom café da manhã. Minha única recomendação à hospedagem é que troquem o tipo de desinfetante porque o atual tem um cheiro muito forte e ruim. Grávidas e pessoas mais sensíveis podem enjoar com ele.

Os quartos são pequenos, mas tem espaço suficiente para um casal, a cama é confortável, tem uma cômoda que dá para colocar as roupas, o quarto possui ar condicionado, frigobar, não tenho muito o que falar! Único lado ruim do quarto, é que não entra vento no banheiro, para secar as roupas, já que a maioria dos passeios são na água, as roupas não secam, ficando úmida e com cheiro forte.

Very beautiful location. The breakfast was very nice and the pool area was also very cosy. The rooms were clean and lovely. The staff was very friendly

Everything, restaurant Gondola is incredible, the attention of the personal, the pool, everything.

Hotel was surrounded by nice nature, next to the water, amazing views. Nice relaxing by the pool. Hotel need refurbishment. Was very noisy from outside amd inside of the room.

Hotel maravilhoso. Toda estrutura impecavel e pensada no conforto dos hospedes. Pegamos o quarto com hidro e vista para o mar e ver de la o nascer do sol foi simplesmente perfeito. Aproveitamos e fizemos massagem no spa do hotel e foi uma delicia. Unicas coisas que nao me agradadam foram cobrar pelo aluguel da bicicleta e da piscina só funcionar ate as 19:00. O horario deveria ser estendido, principalmente em dias muito quentes.

A reserva foi feita por se tratar de aniversário de casamento e da minha esposa. O que foi informado nos dados da reserva foi cumprido pelo Hotel, destaco o atendimento dos funcionários atendimento de excelência, o café da manhã atendeu as expectativas. Um ponto relevante é a localização do Hotel próximo a uma variedade de Restaurantes e Bares além de um cenário bonito para fotografias e lazer.

The pousada is really great they attended to all our needs, service was amazing. We had a room with a private pool what was really nice. Breakfast was well served. The restaurant and bar Bacuri was fantastic. Their cocktails and menu were really great.

A wonderful place to stay in Bonito! We stayed in an apartment with private pool and had a great week. The staff was very friendly and the service was good. The breakfast had an incredibly wide choice. Definitely recommended to stay in Bonito!

Pousada is gorgeous, very clean and well maintained. Enjoyed having my own private pool in the room patio area. Staff was very friendly and super attentive to my needs. Fantastic breakfast. Great location, short walking distance from restaurants and shops.

Don't often leave a review, but this place is incredible. It's the perfect base for exploring Bonito, looks just like the pictures with great pools and swim up bars. We were kindly upgraded to a private pool by the owner Paul who was very welcoming. All the staff were very helpful, especially Alifer the bartender who was always helpful despite us speaking different languages.

My partner & I traveled Brazil for a month coming from Australia, staying in 5 star hotels along the way, this hotel was a stand out for us. I have rated this for couples 5 star, however, once there we could see you could easily bring the kids with a few different options of pools with different vibes through the entire hotel. The rooms were tidy, staff were friendly & helpful, with sufficient English. We loved the swim up bars, the drinks strong and not overpriced, an easy way to cool off on a hot day. A special mention regarding the breakfast bar, was by far the most elaborate and impressive in all our travels, the cakes decadent! Have included photos. 😋

Awesome place for couples (of which there were some). The place has a very romantic vibe: private sunbeds with 360 degree curtains around the pool, many jacuzzies (some of them private) for a good love making session, sexy lightning, an outside bar, great comfy bed / room. I will come back with my girlfriend! Also, try the natural pineapple juice in the bar! Best i have tasted. It's a 5 minute car ride from Old Town of Paraty.

Very good breakfast, nice swimmingpool and jacuzzis, a lot of shadowed places, games ( bilard etc)

Instalaciones en general, se destaca la pileta y el bar.

Everything was Amazing in this hôtel. Breakfast, rooms, bar, cocktails, swimming pool, employées. The location is directory on the 2nd beach and the view from the rooftop pool is superbe. WE had an issue with the aircon leaking in our room and they upgraded us to a better room with jacuzzi bathtub. I can't recommend enough this hôtel.

Friendly staff, esp. breakfast and cleaning ladies. Good variety and quality of products at breakfast. Pool is really nice, would be even better if they add some beach umbrellas at the lounge chairs next to the pool, as there is very little shade. We booked an apartment duplex with jacuzzi and the view was as not as nice as expected, but it was surprisingly quiet for a hotel right in the middle of 2nd beach.

This was my third visit to the island and by far the best experience. Located right in the middle of Segunda Praia, we enjoyed the two swimming pools on the rooftop with a great bar. The bartenders Everton and Edilson mixed some of the best cocktails we encountered. We were grateful for some of the information about the island they gave us. We also liked the friendly staff at breakfast, and the different items offered every morning. We wished to have such great water pressure in our shower at home!

The hotel is located in the heart of Morro beach #2. Breakfast was great, the rooftop pool is beautiful and inviting, walks from the beach and most of all, the staff is very friendly and helpful, even without English. My daughter and I had a very pleasant stay.

Hotel is in second beach, which is prime location if you want to visit 1st & 3rd beach. Hotel has a rooftop pool overlooking the beach.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating every need at all times. They made every minute of our 4 night's stay easy and fun. We had our 7 month old baby, and they thought about everything to accommodate his needs. The food was amazing. The room was very comfortable and had everything we could possibly need. Had massages two days in a row, very relaxing. The pool we had in the room, was lovely and relaxing.

Great place to say in Gramado. Beautiful property all around. Babysitter on site. Pool area is great for relaxing. Very quiet around the property. Safe for kids to run around. Afternoon tea is excellent. Restaurant has great steak options. Family will definitely be back to visit.

We loved the tranquil garden setting of our spacious apartment (Julieta) and enjoyed relaxing in the pool area. Tea/coffee facility in the room is a bonus. Breakfast simply couldn’t be better- delicious food and excellent table service. Staff always pleasant and courteous.

O hospedagem no Ritta Hoppner é tão mágica quanto Gramado em si! Tudo pensado em bem atender, em fazer o hóspede se sentir acolhido. A equipe é extraordinária, sempre simpática, prestativa, pronta para lhe agradar. É um atendimento sem igual, vc já se sente em casa no check-in. A beleza do lugar é ímpar, capricho em cada pequeno detalhe. As pinturas na parede são magníficas, o hotel em si já é uma marca! Queria morar ali! Está em meio ao verde e a natureza e, da mesma forma, a alguns minutos caminhando do centro. Região muito agradável, residencial, silenciosa… a hospedagem foi perfeita e queremos voltar em breve!!! O único ponto negativo foi ter que partir e voltar para a realidade, rsss!! Parabéns a toda equipe que tão bem nos acolheu! Saímos felizes e ansiosos por voltar! Quando voltarmos a Gramado, apenas ficaremos se for no Rita Hoppner

The hotel was beautiful and everything was neat and clean; property well maintained. The tea time in the afternoons were a highlight, delicious tea, beverages, sweet and salad snacks. Breakfasts were so good too, with a variety of fruits, cold cuts, eggs made the way you wanted, pastries, lots of coffee, etc. The room was big, with everything you need, bathroom was well equipped, with a tub and a shower; the only thing that was missing was an extractor in the bathroom. Concierge and restaurant personnel were very nice, always very helpful; very good staff. Not all of them speaks or understand English, but they always find the way to understand and comply with our requests. One of the best hotels I have stayed in.

Firstly i went to Brazil for the first time amd by myself i may add ..the staff bentbover backwards to help me try and navigate aroundvthe language barrier ..they were kind .polite and very helpful dispute me not knowing a single word of the language . The manager Maxmad e me feel welcome right from the beginning and issue I had no matter how big or small due to the language barrier was resolved instantly.. In my opinion I would have liked some of the staff to know a little more English but in all honest maybe it is me that needs to adapt aswell ..the hotel looks amazing and orientated towards the needs of the guests..air con bigbpatio doors in the bedroom and my own Jacuzzi...the hotel is situated a stone's throw away from the beach ...the tide can be a little rough but never the less it is and has beautiful sandy setting with the hot sun and the cool breeze it was a perfect combination .. I would highly recommend this deluxe and beautiful hotel to anyone .. I will be going again for sure ..

O hotel tem um ótimo custo benefício. Fiquei em um quarto luxo, de frente para o mar e com uma Jacuzzi que atendia a dois quartos. Gostei muito. Achei muito boa a opção do hotel de além de ter pratos a la carte ele tb tem a opção de self service tb de petiscos. Então se vc n quiser pedir um prato pode se servir no rodízio de petiscos e pesar. Adorei essa opção porque muitas vezes não estamos com fome para pedir um almoço completo. A noite teve música ao vivo. O hotel é muito bom, recomendo. Achei o preço ótimo para o que oferece. Viajei com marido e filha. Já tinha ido aos hotéis Wish, Serhs e Rifoles mas voltarei nesse com Ctz. O café da manhã poderia ser um pouco melhor mas tem de tudo. Acho q só faltou mais algumas coisas diferentes mas só básico tem tudoooooo. Recomendo demais.

Funcionários educados e prestativos, café da manhã excelente com variedades. Piscinas limpas e 1 com acessibilidade o que fez a diferença para nós que temos limitações. Hotel e quartos limpos, cama confortável, lençóis e travesseiros limpos e confortável. Bem arborizado, amamos a estadia, voltaremos com certeza. A única ressalva que faço é para trocar a lixeira de papel higiênico do banheiro por uma com tampa, ou lixeira basculante, pois pelo menos no quarto aonde ficamos o 511, a lixeira era sem tampa ficando o papel higiênico usado exposto, não sei se nos outros quartos também. Este é um pequeno detalhe que faz uma grande diferença. No mais hotel perfeito, indicaremos sim. Parabéns! E obrigada pela excelente estadia.

We had an amazing time at the resort. The staff, Maria, the manager was very helpful and speaks good English, and helped us with any little issues that we had, Marcus on reception was very helpful sorting out our room change when we needed something further from the bar area, Pedro the porter carried our many bags without any fuss, and refused me helping him, Josie in the restaurant was so friendly and helpful. In fact ,everyone was fantastic, will definitely be coming back again

Superou minhas expectativas! A comida é saborosa, porém há poucas opções. No modelo all inclusive, é possível pedir petiscos, lanches, pizzas e tapiocas diretamente na lanchonete da piscina, garantindo que estejam sempre frescos e deliciosos. O resort realmente precisa de algumas melhorias, talvez uma renovação nos quartos e piscinas, mas não fica atrás de outros resorts da mesma categoria. Os colchões deixam a desejar—são muito macios, parecendo um amontoado de roupas. No entanto, isso não comprometeu nossa experiência, e os funcionários são excepcionais.

Really nice property around 10 mins to the beach and 5 mins to Broadway the main drag in the town. We stayed in a cabin by the pool which was comfortable. Nice little patio where one can hang a hammock. The pool is very large and we much enjoyed it. Breakfast was very generous and varied we enjoyed it every morning. WiFi worked but not very fast. Tv signal in the room was not great and channel selection limited. Staff was very helpful throughout our 5 day stay. The property is on the older side and generally seems like it would benefit from some sprucing up. Minor item, but the amount of very visible large signs could be toned down. Cheapens the property considerably!

We stayed at this place from Wednesday through Saturday this June. It was fantastic! The place is only a block from Broadway, where all the action is, and only a short 5-minute walk down to the beach. We stayed at the L'amore apartment/room. Very clean, brand new room. AC unit was so quiet we didn't even know it was on half the time. Breakfast had a nice variety of fruits, cakes, juices, and other local staples. The only problem we encountered was on Friday night and Saturday morning with excessive music noise from the guests at the next door pousada. The manager at our place advised us to let them know next time, so they can take the appropriate course of action notifying the local police (there are noise ordinances in Brazil after 10pm). Staff was always helpful and pleasant. The owners seemed to show concern for our comfort every time they crossed us in the pousada grounds. The chalets were the cutest thing too. The Wi-fi was spotty at times. The swimming pool grounds was beautiful. The place is all beautifully ornated and the landscaping is pristine. I suggest staying during the week days and leaving before, or right at the beginning of the weekend, to avoid noise and crowds from the capital, Fortaleza. If you can, book a room closer to the entrance of the pousada to avoid noise from the pousada next door, in the back.

So glad to have found this spot in previous post. Great for relaxation after 2 days of delayed flights. Owners photos represent the place accurately. Staying in a basic room with queen bed and set of bunk beds. Clever configuration. I am enjoying the easy access to wi-fi in room and dining area. Nice breakfast, inviting pool, comfortable bed, easy walk to main street (Broadway) and beach. This town has an eco development plan in progress. Lots of new construction evident. If you're the patient kind of traveler, it works fine to arrive by bus from Fortaleza, via the city bus station (rodovaria). Tookus about 3 1/2 hours on the comfy Sao Benedito (green) bus. There's also a transfer service available from the hotel (inquire directly) but it cost too much be comparison. I'm sure it would be lots quicker. (Bus fare was less the $!0 each at the bus station)

I´ve stayed there for two days and it was an unforgettable experience. Clean and confortable rooms with AC, cable TV, good bathroom, king size bed, refrigerator. Nice swimming pool where is possible to get a good massage while drinking some local drinks. Amazing breakfast. I´m sure it´s the best place to relax in that paradise called Canoa Quebrada.

We stayed for two nights and it truly is a great place! Lovely and helpful staff, clean and beautiful pool area, nice cabins and exellent breakfasts . Located close to the beaches and main street. Very child friendly. I would highly recommend Pousada la dolche Vita.

A hospedagem foi muito boa, o hotel é bem localizado, perto e restaurantes, padarias e farmácia. O quarto é amplo, limpo, bem arejado e iluminando. A cama confortável, isolamento acústico bom, enfim tudo muito bom. A única questão são os valores das diárias, muito altas se comparadas com diárias de cidades grandes de mesma categoria. Deve ser pela falta de concorrência.

Só a lixeira é que não cabe ao lado do vaso sanitário. Para usá-lo tem de empurrar a lixeira p o lado/frente. Soube q o elevador travou com nossos amigos dentro, mas foi resolvido felizmente. Nossa estadia foi mt confortável . Funcionários mt educados e efetivos.

We experienced amazing hospitality and service from everyone at Alfa Hotel. The restaurant had great breakfast every day and the shrimp risotto at dinner is phenomenal. The street noise was a little loud on weekend nights but otherwise a perfect stay.

praticidade e conforto com um bom atendimento, apartamento amplo, bem arejado e com uma bela visão da cidade, principalmente da região central. Os funcionários são muito agradáveis e prontos a ajudar. Muito boa a hospedagem.

Hotel muito bom, confortável, funcionários atenciosos e café da manhã muito bom. Fica bem próximo da UFV, é difícil de estacionar próximo, mas tem garagem e manobrista.

Great location. The suite with a private pool is amazing. Super private, comfortable and cozy.

Wonderful 18 room hotel! Beautifully property and grounds facing beautiful beach. Stuff was very friendly and accommodating. Great restaurant/ breakfast, bar. We enjoy playing table pool and cards in a pretty part of hotel dedicated for it. Pool area and grounds were well kept and groomed surrounded by variety of sitting/ lounging options for guests. On a rainy day we used their spa for massages and hydro bath. We absolutely loved the place and definitely will stay there again.

After staying near João Fernandes beach for a few days, we wanted tranquility and this is what we got at Villa Raphael. The feel of the Villa is quite exclusive, as if you're a personal guest at Raphael's villa. The reception and restaurant area is beautiful, with nice garden and gorgeous views. The service from all staff was excellent. As it was an adult only guesthouse, it was always tranquil in the garden and there was no loud music (just some quiet jazz in the background). Ferradura beach is a much quieter beach than the beaches near the centre. The pool was a good size and we could swim some short lengths, and the water temperature was perfect. There were lots of sunloungers with shade and other comfortable seating in the garden, and also some chairs with parasols on the beach for use by Villa guests. Our standard room was a good size, nicely decorated and clean. The bed was very comfortable, and air conditioning worked well. There was a good choice for the a la carte breakfast, and the quality was very good. We also had dinner there one night and it was very tasty, and not too expensive. The town centre is not close, but it takes less than 10 mins by Uber or taxi. We had a lovely relaxing stay, and would recommend Villa Raphael to anyone staying in Búzios.

An Unforgettable Stay at Villa Raphael! Villa Raphael is an absolute gem! It's beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean, creating a truly charming atmosphere. The thermal pool was a pure delight, with some caipirinhas for perfect relaxation. Every morning, the breakfast was fantastic, complemented. What really stood out, though, was the outstanding service. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, making our stay truly special. We highly recommend Villa Raphael for anyone seeking a serene and beautiful getaway with top-tier amenities and unparalleled hospitality. We can't wait to return!

This is an exceptional property with hibiscus blooms at corner of the manicured grounds and pool area, all just r steps through a private gate to the midst beautiful beach in Buzios. Our deluxe room had a French door balcony with stunning views, responsive a/c, stylish and bright decor, and ample space. Breakfasts were abundant and fresh, the staff were responsive but unobtrusive; we truly felt like the owners of a large and luxurious beach home rather than paying guests. 100% recommended!

This hotel is incredible 🤯 our room was spacious, beautifully equipped, with a private pool oasis. Breakfast prepared right at your private pool. This was one of the most unique and beautiful hotels we have every stayed in. Best pousada in Jeri

Wow! What an amazing place. I stayed in the suite with the private pool and it was magical. They made my partner and I feel very special by decorating the room before we arrived and then different decorations throughout the stay. They brought a delicious breakfast to the room every day. Thank you Luana!

The staff was incredibly helpful and lovely (Vanessa and Carlos were both especially nice), and were happy to help with recommendations. We booked the junior suite for the night after arriving in Jericoacoara, which was the ideal way to relax after the journey. The private pool really was the best for feeling happy and refreshed after a day in the heat. The room itself as well as the rest of the pousada were filled with interesting art pieces from all over the world. The breakfast, which was served on the private patio, was also lovely. The pousada is located fairly central in the village, so everything is just around the corner.

Alll room facilities. Comfy bed, great air conditioning, smart tv, pool with jet spa, great daily breakfast, great location.

Antônio has been the nicest host possible welcoming us to Jeri with tips where to eat and what to do in town, as well as speaking a good English (very rare in the North of Brazil!). The pousada is in a central location, but far from the noise of the main street. It is small and very welcoming. Our room and bathroom were spacious, the bed really confortable and well equipped. The bathroom had shower gel and hairdryer and the room had air-conditioning, a kettle with cups and glasses, a safe and a frigo bar full with many different drinks available. The breakfast was served on the pool edge in the nice little garden and it is really good: plenty of fruit, savoury and cooked options are available. The pousada has also an available shower for guests who are leaving which we used (also with clean towels!). It is such a good opportunity once you've already checked out, but have some beach time before leaving! Really highly recommenend!
