Parnaioca Vacation Packages

My experience is so good… The breakfast, the clean room is perfect. The location is better too.

I booked Hotel Villa Rica because the rate was reasonable for my stay in Rio. Based on the listing, I wasn’t expecting a luxury hotel, but I was disappointed by the overall condition of the property. The first room I was assigned was spacious, but the bathroom—particularly the shower—did not appear to be thoroughly cleaned, and the furniture was extremely dated and heavily worn. The bed consisted of what felt like a thin mattress topper on a platform and was very uncomfortable. After speaking with the front desk, the staff kindly allowed me to inspect and choose another available room, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the second room had many of the same issues. Although the bed was an actual mattress, it was exceptionally firm and uncomfortable. The furnishings were again heavily worn, the window would not remain closed, and there was visible mold in the shower. After four nights, I decided to check out early because I simply wasn’t able to get adequate rest due to the bed. The breakfast was very good, and the front desk staff were friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. I also requested a prorated refund for the unused nights. The hotel initially responded promptly through WhatsApp and indicated a refund might be possible, but after Expedia submitted the formal request, communication stopped and the issue remains unresolved. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this property and would choose to stay elsewhere on a future visit to Rio.

A wonderful breakfast. Fresh food and many, many lovely shops.

Amazing Hotel to stay! Very welll located, 10 minutes walk to Rua das Pedras, next to different restaurants and bar. I definitely recommend this hotel to everyone who is planning to go to Buzios.

This is a simple but cozy property. The staff was pleasant and the place was very clean.

Was doubled charged for the room and refund took an effort. Room had only one bed and was different and smaller than the pictures on Expedia. Staff gave us an upgrade after complaining and it was better, but a bit dusty.

Excelente experiência! A pousada é muito aconchegante, limpa e bem organizada. Os funcionários são atenciosos e sempre prestativos. O café da manhã é ótimo e a localização é excelente. Com certeza voltarei e recomendo para quem procura conforto e tranquilidade.
