Pousada dos Coqueiros Búzios
The place needs total renovation! The walls of the room have mildew, the toilet was clogged, the water from the shower stall permeates through the whole bathroom floor, making everything wet. Breakfast is poor with only fruit a banana, breads are small and not crispy. Staff is nice and courteous

Own Buzios Beach Hotel
Staff and location was excellent. Hotel has good amenities (pool, restaurant, sauna and steam bath). Rooms and facilities were a bit tired. Needs a scrub and a fresh coat of paint. Breakfast was delicious and generous.
