Hibiscus Beach Pousada

really friendly staff and beautiful sea view. a 10-15 min walk from the town and a lovely little swimming pool.

This is a wonderful place to stay in Buzios. Esach room is a separate bungalow, and each bungalow has a deck with a view of the sea. Good WiFi service on the deck, so it's a lovely place to catch up on your e-mail. The service is friendly, the rooms comfortable, good breakfsat, good & quick laundry service if you need it. What more cxould you want?

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel in July, and want to recommend it to other people. Its location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach. We especially liked the fact that the rooms are private cottages, all with a beautiful sea view. Ours was beautifully maintained and very clean. Breakfast was delicious and varied, and the office staff seemed to speak at least five different languages. Although it was the winter low season, the hotel was almost full, so it is probably best to book in advance. Our stay was a short one, and the only regret was not having more time to see many of the beaches in Buzios, and to relax for longer at Hibiscus Beach. We´ll be back !

After all I've heard about Buzios, this was a dissapointment during my trip. The rooms are in bad need of refurbishing. The hotel was very difficult to locate. The breakfast offered was very poor, and that is being generous!! The hot water in the shower lasted no longer than 5 minutes and then it would turn cold. This hotel did not reach a two star level, but the prices charges (this is "off season") where 5 star prices. To all that might consider this hotel, stay away!!

It was great - friendly staff, cool little bungalows. Breakfast was lovely, location was very chilled but an easy 10min into the centre of town. Best of all, the transfers from Rio were cheap and reliable - we ended up going to Buzios twice and booked our transfer through Hibiscus a second time even though we weren't staying there the second time around - the transfers were far cheaper through them

We had a very good experience at the Hibiscus. Jose Antonio, the taxi driver from Hibiscus was fantastic. When we arrived at the Hibiscus it was the middle of the night, but there was someone to greet us-great. Next morning we had breakfast-adequate, but coffee and tea was luke warm, but fruit and pastries were lovely and you could eat as much as you wanted. Kevan and Alicia were very helpful and sorted anything we wanted. The villa(no 4) was lovely, especially the shower!!! It was quite cold in the villa, but we were visiting in the spring. There is a shuttle bus to take you into the centre of town for about 80pence. There a many restaurants and shops to keep you occupied. We hired a small jeep which allowed us to travel around Buzios-recommend this. Also, head to the Joan Fernandez beach to have freshly cooked fish on the beach-20 pounds for 2- Excellent. We also had lovely coconut and caramel-yum! The private taxi to and from the airport was quite expensive, but worth it, especially if you get Jose Antonio. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel.

Really happy with our stay. Amazing view. A bit removed from the rest of Buzios but worth it. Def recommend.

This posada was somewhat rustic, VERY near the beach and close to downtown, without all the noise that a downtown can bring. While not being a 5star hotel, it was clean and fun to stay in.

The Hibiscus is about 150 km of Rio and airport pick-up and transportation was arranged by the hotel. The hotel is about a 20 min walk to shops and restaurants, and about a 45 min walk into the middle of Buzios. There are lots of mini-buses if you don't want to walk. It was a 3 min walk to the beach. The included breakfast had a an excellent selection. The cottages were private and each had a small deck with an excellent view of the ocean. There was a safe, bar fridge, and TV in the room. The bed was a little hard and the linens and pillows are in need of updating. The pool was perfect for cooling off and the surround had shaded areas to park yourself and read a book (the hotel supplied beach towels). It is a hotel for the able-bodied, as there are many steps up to the lobby area of the hotel, and then a steep walk up to the cottages. There is good wifi in the rooms. We would recommend this hotel to our friends.

Super location Great view Up on a hill w/ many steps to get to room Great breakfast
