Villa Raphael is a beautiful small hotel situated on the beach in the most picturesque bay! Everything here was amazing: The room, the service, the grounds, simply everything! The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our wishes! If you are looking for a romantic and quiet place in Buzios, this is the place 💖

Good hotel overall. Very good location and scenery. The breakfast was nothing special and the bread was cold. Staffs were not very trained compared to the price of the hotel.

Melhor opção pra quem quer pé-na-areia e conforto
Um dos poucos hotéis realmente pé-na-areia de Búzios, combina o livre acesso à linda praia da Ferradura ao conforto do ambiente bem instalado da piscina. O staff é bem preparado e muito cordial. Quarto limpíssimo, roupas de cama e banho super cheirosas, banheiro reformado e excelente ducha. Destaque para o café da manhã delicioso e uma carta de drinks autorais excelente.

The property was perfect, especially for a 2020 vacation. It was clean, spacious, and beautiful. The view from the sea-view room is incredible, and sleeping with the sound of the ocean is very calming. However, the best part of my stay were how kind, caring, attentive and interesting the staff were. It was very sad when we had to leave. I would absolutely recommend this property, it gets so much sunshine, the pool is lovely and and food is incredible.

My husband and I really loved staying here. It was very peaceful, the staff was super kind and always helpful. The beach access is fantastic. We really enjoyed massages right by the beach, I can't think of anything more relaxing! We also really enjoyed the free shuttle to the downtown area, it was so convenient! I will definitely be back!

Private Villa Luxury
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!

Excelente localização. Só que no sábado, quando o hotel estava com mais hóspedes, só havia um funcionário servindo e o serviço deixou a desejar. E o café servido em pequenos bules de porcelana esfria super rápido... não se usa mais... atendimento sexta de manhã muito mais atento e profissional que no sábado... e foi baixa estacao

Decepcao
A pousada tem uma boa estrutura porém muito pouco bem aproveitada . Os funcionarios nao fazem a mínima questao de os hospedes permanecerem no hotel durante o dia , nao dão a mínima assistencia quando estamos na praia , piscina , quando cheguei ao hotel eles nao mostraram por exemplo onde fica a sauna , só soube no ultimo dia que o hotel tinha sauna . Os horarios do jantar tambem sao péssimos , ate as 21h é bem complicado para um hotel em um balneario como buzios . Caso voce perca o horario do cafe da manha voce nao consegue tomar nem mesmo pagando alguma taxa , isso é um absurdo . A impressao que fica que os funcionarios estao ali te fazendo um favor . Nao recomendaria a amigos .
