Hotel Deville Prime Campo Grande

The recently opened Casa Turquesa is the most luxurious hotel in Paraty. With just nine individually decorated suites and a pleasant pool area the pousada is located in the heart of the historical district near to the pier. The building is originally 18th century but was damaged in a fire thirty years ago. It has since had a complete refurbishment retaining the colonial style of the area but to modern standards of luxury and comfort. Each of the rooms is tastefully decorated and well appointed with air conditioning, flat screen televisions and large bathrooms.

The Fasano Rio is the most stylish hotel in Rio. Set on Ipanema beach front and designed by Phillipe Starck, this is a stunning property. The Fasano brings an air of understated cool and luxury that has been somewhat lacking in some of the other beach-front hotels in Rio. The rooms are immaculately decorated with a combination of period pieces, original artwork and chic-modern style. We recommend the Deluxe sea view category or above. Each has a private balcony with views out to sea and king size beds with Egyptian cotton sheets and goose down pillows. For that extra touch of luxury and pampering, there is also butler service. The facilities include an excellent bar, perhaps the city’s best seafood restaurant and a stunning rooftop infinity pool.

Actually inside the national park on the Brazilian side, this luxury property is ideally located. Walking out from the lobby one can hear the thunder of the falls and the hotel is surrounded by lush tropical rainforest. The hotel has been recently refurbished throughout to a high standard and in keeping with the colonial mansion style of the hotel’s original design. The hotel has large rooms with high ceilings, hard wood flooring and period style furniture. There is a large pool area in the rear to relax at with a drink after a day exploring the falls.
