Overpriced and poor plumbing
I booked this place after reading reviews which gave glowing reports. They must have stayed at a different hotel! It was the most expensive but worst place I stayed at in this my 4th trip to Brazil. The plumbing in my room didnt function. The toilet didnt flush properly the washbasin didnt drain and water pooled up in the shower as the drain was above the tiles. The toulet in the breakfast dining area didnt work either. I had to move to a new room which was better. There were quite a lot of mosquitoes and small cochroaches.

Comfortable and pleasant hotel near the beach
Comfortable and pleasant hotel near the beach, and our chalet had an ocean view. Staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good, there was always one juice, yogurt, cereal, fresh fruit, different kinds of bread, ham and cheese, some scrambled eggs, and a cake and/or another sweet treat. Room was clean and comfortable, a double bed, a small couch that could probably turn into a bed, decent bathroom and wireless internet access. Staff gladly provided towels for us to take to the beach daily. The only care I would have regarding this hotel is the number of stairs/steps that one must walk to get to your chalet. If you or your family have mobility issues, don't like going up steps, this hotel/pousada may not be for you. But if you are strong, "young" and beautiful like we are, I don't think you will regret your decision you you paid a competitive price.

Close to the beach, great view, some stairs
Nice location, close to the beach, 20 min walk to the center along a nice walkway with the BB statue on the way :-) Yes, there is a few stairs up to the rooms, but you will be laying on the beach all day anyway ...

Charming Pousada close to the beach
Buzious is charming and beautiful and the location of this pousada is perfect - a short walk from the beach in a quiet part of town, but only 5 minutes by car from the centre. The rooms are all little chalets with their own balconies and plenty of space. Breakfast is plentiful and delicious and the staff welcoming and extremely helpful. We loved it.

a room with a view
Lovely cottages spilling down a terraced hillside with beautiful views of the beaches of Buzios...rustic and simple, clean and comfortable...the perfect tonic for R&R after the hectic pace of Rio. Friendly staff, simple service. Close enough to town but removed from the nightlife sights and sounds of Buzios.

Great hotel for couples
Great hotel with lovely view. I think it's an excellent property. Very close to the beach and 15 minutes to downtown harbor area. The breakfast is average - nothing great but sufficient. The hotel is very clean and the rooms have a nice balcony with view of the ocean. That view requires a climb up a hillside so the walk to the villas is a bit of a hike but totally fine, except for travellers who have walking or fitness limitations. My only suggestion for the hotel is to better assist guests scheduling excursions, such as day trips, snorkeling, diving. There's a slight language barrier in Buzios and that assistance would have been helpful. Overall, great hotel in a romantic setting - perfect for couples.

Great experience in Buzios
It was a very pleasant stay. I took my two small dogs with me and all went smooth. The staff was polite, but nobody helped us taking the bagagge upstairs -one of the helper just stared at us but did not offer to help but upon arriving at the door he waited to be tiped.

Hibiscus Beach Pousada - Great Value in Buzios
Staff was outstanding, friendly, and offered excellent service. Breakfast buffet was top-notch. Nice touches like available beach towels and umbrellas plus 24/7 coffee in the breakfast room were especially welcome. Had one maintenance issue while there, but I honestly feel that the staff did all they could to handle and rectify the situation, so no complaints and only positive marks from us.

Great olace to stay in Buzios
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?

As Good as it Gets !
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 !

Five Star price at 2 star level
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!!

Recommnded
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

KENNY & KELLY'S REVIEW
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.

Excellent Views and Location
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.

Great little pousada
We were generally very satisfied with our short stay at the Hibiscus Beach. The staff were helpful and friendly, although the concierge was out when we arrived so we had to carry our bags up many steps to our bungalow. The hotel was clean, despite the construction work at the front (a deck area was being built.) Breakfast was fine. We'd definitely stay here again.
