Fodor's Expert Review Aquabarra Boutique Hotel and Spa

Rua de Corina 16, Búzios, Rio de Janeiro, 28950–000, Brazil

A Zen-like calm pervades the rooms and living spaces at this casual-chic spot just a few minutes' walk from Geribá Beach. Much use is made of natural materials such as bamboo, linen, and reclaimed wood, and the attention to detail is impressive—each suite is decorated with arts and crafts gathered during the owners' travels overseas.

PROS

  • short stroll to Geribá beach
  • excellent spa offers massages and beauty treatments
  • most rooms have lovely views

CONS

  • you need to cab or bus to get to Centro
  • some rooms offer limited privacy
  • bathrooms could be cleaner
