Amazing experience in this charming hotel.

This modern and super cute boutique hotel steps from Ossos beach was a joy to stay in! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, beds were super comfortable, bathroom was amazing with a great shower, breakfast was incredible and the heated pool was awesome. Great decor throughout and many plants all around the property, with great attention to detail in the rooms and the hotel itself. Parking was off site but a quick 2 minute walk and the staff was helpful in bringing bags from the car (there’s an unloading area outside) to the rooms. The surrounding area is great with so many walking options for beaches and amazing restaurants. Steps away from Ossos beach. I took the trip with my mom who loved the heated pool. They also provide beach and pool towels in addition to the ones in the rooms. Great value and hope to return again!

Sente em casa.

Os funcionários são um grande diferencial, a atenção, sempre muito cordial e fazendo de tudo para atender as necessidades muito rápido e sempre com sorriso no rosto. O hotel tem um café da manhã excelente e a tarde com um café, bolinhos de chuva e petisco delicioso. O ponto negativo a piscina é muito pequena e não tem opção para jantar mas isso foi irrelevante.

Very good hotel near to buzios centre

Very friendly staff, well placed hotel near to the town centre (1km walk). Facilities and breakfast were very good. Only downside is there is no parking, however this is not the hotels fault and you can pay for parking in nearby roads, if need be.
