"A 2 and a half hour drive northeast from Rio gets you to Búzios - a peninsula offering some fine coves and a choice of 26 different beaches. Frequented by rich Carioca weekenders and other better-off South Americans seeking an alternative to Rio, Búzios was once a small fishing village put on the map in the 60s by Brigitte Bardot. Today it's more lively, but it still retains some original charm with its cobbled main street and bobbing fishing boats. We found Casas Brancas, a 5-minute walk from the centre of town, to be the most stylish, welcoming and relaxing place to stay. Set on a hillside overlooking the bay, it’s one of the oldest hotels in Búzios. Owner Amalia de La Maria has given her residence a chic Mediterranean feel. With its billowy white drapes, jumbled mix of 34 individually decorated rooms (many with terraces and hammocks), endless nooks and crannies, and a spa, Casas Brancas is a beautiful place to languish. The alfresco 74 Restaurant is pure romance for those wanting candlelit dinners set before the twinkling lights of the bay and night sky. Highs A 5-minute walk from the main street with its excellent seafood restaurants, lively bars and chic boutiquesSome of the best views of Búzios BayIt has a laid-back and inviting ambianceImaginative East-meets-West décor Búzios boasts every type of beach you should want and is one of the best beach destinations close to Rio Lows Not located on a beach, but almost none of the hotels in Búzios are; most are within a 5-10 minute drive - we recommend hiring a beach buggyBathrooms were simple and some of the fittings somewhat outdated, but the team assure us they have been updated since our visitWatch out for hungry mosquitosBúzios is a developed resort and party town - if you're seeking tranquility and empty beaches avoid high season, or head south of Rio to Parati" - Nikki Tinto
"In the southern summer, when the whole world seems to gather in Rio, those of Rio's inhabitants who have the means flee to Búzios, two hours to the north. This humble fishing village (is there any other kind?) has become an upscale resort destination, largely thanks to a '60s visit by Brigitte Bardot, now the town's unofficial patron saint of tourism. Thankfully the towering megahotels of Rio have yet to make an appearance on the shores of Búzios; the best lodgings in town are the pousadas, more guesthouse than hotel, and among these one of the finest is Casas Brancas.The laid-back Mediterranean look of Casas Brancas belies the hipness of the place — proof that you don't need big-name designers or challenging hypermodern furnishings to attract the beautiful people. Instead the 32 rooms are cozy, homey, tucked away around courtyards and along terraces, all overlooking the view of the scenic bay of Búzios. A classic pousada comes with its own restaurant, and this one is no exception, serving a fusion of Brazilian and Mediterranean cuisines. And beyond obligatory is the spa, a bit of an indulgence for a hotel of Casas Brancas' size — though a drink on the terrace overlooking the bay is the preferred form of relaxation here." - Tablet Hotels
