This was the first time I have rented a large house for a group and to do so in a foreign country can be a little daunting. Everything about this house, the pool, its managers, housekeeping, EVERYTHING was incredible. The house is well appointed and the setting stunning. Regina, the housekeeper made us the most delicious breakfast meals and arranging for a chef for dinner was very easy. There are several beaches within a 15 -20 minute walk, lots of restaurants and the shopping is an easy 20-30 minute stroll. I would like to point out that the house has such an amazing view because it is on a steep hill - meaning walking back from town or the beach was a fun exercise! Thank you for such a memorable vacation.

Overall, our stay was excellent. This home is masterfully designed, completely unique and beautiful. The infinity pool and outdoor living spaces are exquisite, and the home opens on all sides with large doors, allowing the breeze to flow through upstairs and downstairs. The beds are very comfortable and each bedroom has its own bathroom, which was wonderful. You can tell that this home has been built with every detail lovingly decided. Regina, the housekeeper, is kind and meticulous - and she prepares a beautiful breakfast each morning. The owners helped us arrange transportation from Rio airport to the home, and also a private chef for a couple nights. This was much appreciated. The main concern, and a rather surprising one (as it was not disclosed to us before or even after our arrival to the home), was that the owners/manager have numerous camera all over the house and outdoor/pool area. These were on and recording 24/7. We did not realize until almost two days into our stay that this was happening, and we asked about them. It was very unpleasant/upsetting. On vacation, when relaxing in the living room, playing with your kids or laying out in your bathing suit, you expect privacy in the home where you stay. In fact, it is our understanding that video recording renters without disclosing the act of doing so violates the HomeAway policies. The owners said they could not turn off the system, which they consider essential to security on the property, and that the perimeter cameras are not on separate circuit from the living space cameras. We ended up having the manager come cover the inside (living room, dining room, hallway, stairwell) and pool deck cameras with plastic bags to block the recording view. It was odd to have to do this, and again, mostly upsetting because the owners had not informed us that this recording was happening. With full disclosure/notification and a pre-set plan to cover those living space cameras while renters are there, there would no barrier to staying in this otherwise amazing home.

A casa é simplesmente maravilhosa, ampla e aconchegante. Super estrutura, vista incrível e sempre limpa. O serviço é ótimo e os proprietários são solícitos, dão toda a assistência necessária para aproveitar Buzios da melhor maneira possível. Forneceram também tudo o necessário para meus filhos pequenos, como berço, cadeirinha e até mesmo brinquedos. Não foi a primeira vez em que me hospedei com minha família, e com certeza não será a última.

we had a great experience! the house is beautiful, the location very convenience, the views and the pool outstanding. Very comfortable, we spent a week to remember!
