as visitors might expect there are many choices of accommodations in búzios, ranging from hostels to luxury penthouse suites - as holiday locations go, búzios is perhaps not the cheapest, but it is certainly possible to enjoy the area without having to hold up a bank.

we selected a few lodging alternatives, all of which are highly recommended, and for varying budgets.

the insólito boutique hotel is neatly perched on the waters edge next to one of búzios' most stunning beaches, praia ferradura, and is what class and comfort feel like - the hotel prides itself on existing in harmony with nature and its beautiful surroundings, and  features a number of themed rooms that take inspiration from brazilian culture.
