Hotel lovely - disappointing food and catering

We stayed only one day. Firstly is a bit difficult to find so please contact hotel in advance to arrange you a taxi. Hotel is amazing and very intimate , personal. However you still see and hear all the traffic of busy Rio - so it’s not a total escape. We loved staff and hotel , but personal chef is not a good value or good food. As you away from everything else you are stuck with what hotel offers and we find it very expensive food for what we received , also chef was slightly invading on our privacy (although I guess he just friendly and didn’t have much else to do). Breakfast was perhaps the poorest we had on all our trip to Rio - and they literally offer you just one cooked egg with some cold continental style (but limited) meats , fruits - not too impressed. Overall I would recommend the hotel , but they need to sort out prices of catering or at least be worth it for what you pay. And at least complimentary coffee would have been nice , considering you are excluded from any cafes around.

Jantar excessivamente oneroso

A hospedagem restou maculada pela absoluta falta de transparência com os pratos servidos no jantar e respectivos preços. O hotel e o chef não são claros ao expor os preços e aí tem tudo para dar errado. Pagamos por 2 caldos, 1 salada e 2 sucos a quantia de R$ 400,00, algo injusto e desonesto. Um dos caldo veio com cerca de quatro colheres de sopa. Enfim, não reputamos correto o procedimento da hospedaria.

Awesome time was had

This place was fabulous, the staff was exceptionally helpful, and the place was clean, spacious, safe and beautiful views. I definitely recommend this place for anyone travelling to Brazil. Your chef prepares what ever you want to eat. This place was neatly tucked away up in the mountains in a secure gated community. Former home of Brazilian soccer super star Pelé. Place was tastefully decorated and beautifilly maintained.

A gem in the hills of Joa, near Rio

Wonderful gem of a property, which felt like our own private villa. Christo the manager is welcoming and so helpful - and make sure to get a few of Jorge’s caipirinhas, they are the best and most authentic in all of Rio! Oh and the chef - creates a masterpiece at dinnertime, there’s no need to leave such tranquility when you have paradise all around you!

Foi a primeira vez que estive em uma casa que foi transformada em hotel. Foi tudo maravilhoso. Minha noiva é MUITO chata e ADOROU tudo. A paisagem é magnífica, o serviço soberbo, vc decide com a chef o que e onde vai comer. A 5 minutas a pé da praia da Joatinga. Tudo sensacional. Atendimento personalizado!!! Incrível.

Simplesmente Fantástico!

Eu e minha esposa gostamos MUITO de nossa estadia! Apesar de morarmos no Rio, a oportunidade de ficar em uma casa maravilhosa com uma vista deslumbrante para qualquer lado que se olhe compensa muito! Alem disso, nao tenho como deixar de destacar o cuidado e carinho que toda equipe do hotel demonstraram desde o primeiro contato... Radi, Chef Raquel Mascarenhas e Marcelo fazem de tudo para nos sentirmos especiais! Por falar em Raquel, nao deixem de experimentar um menu completo preparado por ela na hora... Fantastico! Antes da reserva Ate me preocupei com um unico comentario negativo sobre as instalacoes: posso dizer que existe sim ate um reparo ou outro muito pequeno que necessita ser feito... mas asseguro que isso nao representa absolutamente nada que se compare com a maravilhosa experiencia proporcionada a um preco muito justo, diga-se de passagem!

P'essima escolha

Foi uma decepcao, pois a suite que reservei com vista o ar condicionado nao funcionava, e a chave quebrou entao para nos trocaram para uma suite inferior sem vista. Nenhuma das duas suites possuia qualquer tipo de comunicacao com o atendimento, portanto quando a chave quebrou tive que ficar tentando sinal para ligar para o proprio hotel e abrirem a nossa porta. O SPA nao tinha ninguem para fazer qualquer tipo de servico, ja que no sabado apos as 17h a unica pessoa no "hotel" era a chefe, por sinal muito atenciosa, que fez o servico de camareira, garcom e chefe. O jantar nao tinha cardapio e apenas uma opcao de entrada e sobremesa e o prato principal apenas file e dois tipos de risoto. Esse jantar foi cobrado 120,00 por pessoa. O que achei extremamente caro pela total falta de opcao. E para piorar, no domingo ao fazer o check out, continuava apenas a chefe para resolver tudo, muito simpatica e dedicada, porem era um presente para o meu namorado, paguei a diaria pelo site, porem ele foi perguntar como pagariamos os extras e acabamos dentro da cozinha, fazendo contas em um caderninho de papel. Enfim nao retorno e nao indico.

Unbelievable beautiful surroundings with Natural Beauty surrounding the Hotel in 360º. The General Manager was tireless and showed extreme personal treatment which made us feel like VIP Guests and was always available to guarantee any personal needs or demands. Everyone who worked there were extremely courteous and friendly. Recommended for anyone who wants to spend a romantic weekend or small holidays like we did.
