Hibiscus Beach Pousada
An almost magical experience! We had originally booked for two nights, and loved the hotel and Buzios so much that we have extended our stay. Guests have a cozy cottage all to themselves, and our room is very comfortable, beautifully clean, and has everything we need. The highest rooms have the best sea views, and we were lucky to be given number 9, right at the top. The staff are really friendly and most speak English. The service is great, and we would like to recommend this hotel. Buzios in June is quiet, with plenty of room on the beaches and in restaurants and bars. During our stay, the peninsula has been bathed in sunlight....yes, a magical experience !...More

Porto Bay Glenzhaus
The room was spacious and had a beautiful view. Very nice and helpful staff. Unfortunatly, my expectations for a hotel that multiple guidebooks and sites declared "2nd best in all of South America" fell a bit short as we were without hot water throughout our stay and didn't have any running water for a portion of our stay. We also had ants in our bed and other little critters but I know that is to be expected in such a tropical setting. All told, I think it is worth the low-season pricing but I don't think I would recommend it for high-season....More

Hibiscus Beach Pousada
This was my first time to Buzios – a business trip in August, the southern hemisphere's winter. I stayed at the Hibiscus Beach Pousada for 9 nights and enjoyed every aspect. Each ‘room’ at this pousada is an individual bungalow that is built up a hill-side. One of the nicest beach is a 1 minute walk out the front door. Each bungalow has French doors that open to a small private patio overlooking the sea… Every room has a tremendous view, and as a previous review noted, the higher the room, the better the view (I too was at the top in room #9). The staff was great. English is my only language and I had no problems. They even arranged a car for the 2.5hr ride to the airport in Rio at a rate much cheaper than any other private transportation. The location of the pousada is towards the tip of the Buzios peninsula and is much quieter at night than ‘downtown’. For shopping and nightlife, the walk to down town is a beautiful 10 minute stroll along the waterfront (very safe, even late at night). The rooms were immaculate and comfortable. The free-breakfast was served promptly at 8:30am (and it is a good mix of fresh fruit, cereals, pastries and scrambled eggs). I could not get a strong WiFi signal in my room, but it was a pleasure to take my laptop down to the restaurant area to work online. Overall – I cannot imagine a nicer experience in Buzios than the Hibiscus Beach....More
