Local perfeito

Foi uma boa estadia, funcionários muito atenciosos e gentis. Café da manhã excelente, bem farto e variado. A tarde tinha um café de cortesia muito bom, que nós adoramos. Tinha piscina aquecida, ao lado um bar pra que os hóspedes pudessem fazer seus pedidos de drinks. Gostei muito da pousada, fica perto da Orla Bardot e das principais praias de Búzios (Azeda, Azedinho e João Fernandes). Tem um farto comércio ao redor, muitos restaurantes, isso fez toda diferença. Com certeza voltaria a me hospedar e indico.

Superestimado

Achei a pousada regular para o preco cobrado na diaria. Pra comecar, tivemos que esperar 20min apos o check in pro quarto ficar pronto. Entramos no quarto e esse tava com cheiro de barata. Alem disso, os quartos nao tem padrao. Eu e meu sogro reservamos quarto da mesma categoria e no entanto o nosso quarto era pequeno e claustrofobico e o dele bem melhor e com uma cama do tamanho Queen (a nossa era de casal, menor). Por fim, o cafe da minha era apenas OK em relacao a outras pousadas da regiao.

Excelentes funcionários. Quarto limpo e confortável. Ótima localização, da para fazer tudo a pé. O estacionamento fica um pouco distante e precisa deixar as chaves no local. Esperávamos um café da manhã mais farto, com mais opçõés, variedades. A piscina é bem pequena.

Excelente localização em búzios!

Pousada muito bem localizada, principalmente para quem vai a primeira vez, pode ir a várias praias a pé. Café da manhã espetacular e ótimo atendimento. Piscina aquecida também foi show! O atendimento das moças no café da manhã e no lanche da tarde é digno de nota: sem palavras para o carinho e a dedicação da Dona Daisy e colegas. Cuidado somente com os passeios de barco oferecidos pela recepção: alguns não se realizaram por falta de condições do tempo.
