    City

    • Distance to city: 109 miles

    • Directions to property:
      After arriving at the entrance to Buzios "Portal in Manguinhos", continue on Av. Jose Bento Ribeiro Dantas until you reach Av. Parque, make a right. This is the entrance to Ferradura. At this point it's easier to look for and follow the signs saying Insolito or Ferradura Private. We are on the same street as they are. After passing the Police Station ~200 yards, make your first left. Continue down this road until you can make your first left at a 4 way intersection. Go left and continue driving past all the Qiosques "restraunts/bars" on your right side. Just after passing the Qiosques, you will reach a 3 way fork in the road. Go to the right and stay to the right, this is OUR ROAD, your almost there!! Continue driving past Insolito and Ferradura Private. We are just up the hill from them on the right side. Look for a small sign on the wall that says Cachoeira Inn.


    Airport

    • RIO - Rio De Janeiro, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

    • Directions to property:
      Best to use a MAP...After leaving the airport follow signs directioning you to Niteroi / Ponte "bridge". After you go over the bridge, stay to the left side at the toll boothe and follow signs towards Araruama and Cabo Frio, NOT Niteroi. Eventually you will end up on a toll road. After going thru the toll boothe follow the signs towards Sao Pedro da Aldeia and Cabo Frio, not Araruama. Once in Sao Pedro da Aldeia "30 min after the toll boothe" you will have to look for signs towards Buzios, not Cabo Frio. Follow all signs towards Buzios!! GOOD LUCK!!

    Wow, where to begin. We are so so so so happy that we chose to stay at the Cachoeira Inn! We are also thrilled that we added one more night to our visit in Buzios. The place is simply magical (and also worth every penny). From the moment you arrive at the Inn, you know you are in for something special. Everything is just so well done, but also unique. The views are stunning from all locations and the furnishings are are beautiful. The Inn is filled with beautiful and amazing things, but it maintains a casual and comfortable feel. There are 4 rooms at the Inn, but at times you would think you were the only one there. There are just so many hideaways and private spaces that you are able to have plenty of alone time should you choose it (while also enjoying simply stunning views and the calming sound of the waterfalls). The breakfasts are delicious and typically included fresh juice, amazing pastries, fresh fruit, eggs to order, etc. I would be remiss to not mention the Caipirinhas. Matt makes one mean caipirinha, and also taught my husband how to do it! We have had them many times since we've been home and pretend we are still sitting at the Cachoeira Inn looking at the amazing view! The town of Buzios is adorable and is full of cobblestone streets lined with great shops and good restaurants. We kayaked at the Inn and Matt and his staff were very helpful assisting us in and out of the water. At the recommendation of Matt and Susan, we took a private boat out with another couple that we met at the inn. This was one of our favorite things we did the entire trip (in spite of the fact that my husband got a little seasick!). We were sad to leave and hope to one day be able to return. We would absolutely go back to Buzios and would without a doubt stay at the Cachoeira Inn again (which says a lot because we don't often want to go back to the same place twice!).

    We visited the Cachoeira Inn on our Honeymoon in Brazil. The layout is amazing. So many waterfalls and places to relax. Very private; perfect for romantic getaway. Matt and Susan are gracious hosts and offer great conversation. Very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. The views are amazing; beautiful sunset. You can kayak to nearby beaches to have lunch. Susan and Matt prepare a homemade breakfast for the guests; the place is beautifully decorated, with unique pieces. They have a great library, in case you need a book to read while relaxing by the pool or swinging in the hammock. We stayed in a couple really nice places in Rio and the Cachoeira was our favorite by far.

    We spend the last week end of October 2011 in this place. It’s a spectacular place small and quit, it’s the place to go for relax and leave the stress out. The rooms are really lovely; we stayed at Iguazu suite, nice, very nice. Te design of the house, the waterfalls / pools, the reading / siesta areas total private and always with amazing views, do this Inn the most beautiful place I meet and I travel a lot around the world. But, nothing will be if Matt and Susan not be behind all these. You feel in a friend’ house, they take care of all you can need but with absolutely discretion. I know other hotel ‘boutiques’ in Buzios area and nothing to do whit this. We will definitely be returning. Ana Páramo

    This place is the most amazing place I have ever stayed! The Inn is unbelievably beautiful, the service fantastic and the setting fabulous. We stayed there on the last stop of our honeymoon in Brazil and I can think of nothing I would have changed of our time there. Matt and Susan are fabulous hosts and this place really does have the 'wow' factor.' Could not recommend more highly!
