Lugar de paz e gente boa!

Não tenho outra opinião a dar do quê excepcional! Desde o lugar até a recepção de Zanza e Rodrigo. Sério, quem quer de fato se desconectar da correria, cidade agitada é lá que você precisa ir. O lugar é simples, mas é justamente isso que encanta e faz você se apaixonar por cada detalhe. Café da manhã simplea, mas muito gostoso. Ficar sentada de frente pro Rio tomando um vinho e com a fogueira acessa... só sei que agora a Pousada virou meu refúgio quando quiser sair da cidade. Zanza e Rodrigo, parabéns pela recepção, o cuidado nos detalhes e amizade que fizemos. Até breve.

Um final de semana mágico

Um final de semana mágico, um café da manhã preparado com muito carinho e um tratamento diferenciado! Um rio incrível a alguns passos do chalé e em especial o cuidado da dona da pousada, Zanza.. gentil e super preocupada com tudo. Para quem quer paz e contato com a natureza é o local certo!
