We had an amazing stay! Clive was a great host, and the house was beautiful. It was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, and the decor was unique and really cool. The breakfast each morning was delicious and fresh, and delivered right at our requested time. We'd definitely recommend this property.
As other commenters have mentioned, the driveway to get up to the property is a bit daunting - but Clive was happy to shuttle us up and down the hill anytime we wanted, so this wasn't a huge issue for us.

The location, view and authenticity of the villa is superb.

This place stole my heart. Nestled between the lush rainforest and breathtaking views of the sea and mountains, it’s everything you imagine when you think of a tropical escape. Fruit trees, sweet animals roaming freely, and the kind of peace you can feel in your bones. If you want to wake up in bed and feel like you’re in a dream—come here. It’s unforgettable.

Genuinely one of my favourite places I’ve stayed in after many years of travelling. Hands down the best in South America.
Superb views over the bay. Incredibly spacious, stylish and comfortable - a place we could stay at for weeks. The outside deck is incredibly relaxing, and a wonderful location for birding if that’s your thing. The road up was great fun too.
Clive (as well as Egsy & friends) were just superb hosts - had a lot of fun with them. Hopefully we will be able to visit again in the future.

the property is absolutely beautiful. super comfortable and relaxing. the hosts are incredibly kind and helpful. they provided us tons of information about the area and even booked us a boat tour. We extended our stay, because the place was the nicest place we stayed at during our travels in Brazil.
everything about the place is magical. the hosts provide a breakfast that’s absolutely marvelous. the best cheese we had in all of Brazil.

The location. The nature.
We were treated very well by the owners, who are very friendly and gave us lots of valuable tips on where to go and eat. The decor is very tasteful. The place is very clean, safe, spacious and everything is very well taken care of. Highlight for the location, which is inside the forest.
Despite not mentioning that there was refrigerated air in the place, unfortunately the intense heat and the lack of refrigerated air in the bedroom did not allow us to be comfortable and get a good night's sleep. As a result, we left the site a day early.

Location: the property is between the historic city centre and the main beaches such as São Gonçalo and Praia Grande. Moreover, it is at the top of a hill which gives it a beautiful view of the bay and a sense of isolation - you feel like you're at the middle of nature.
Hosts: very nice and helpful - they were ready to help us with what we needed but also left us alone to enjoy our stay.
Accommodation: the guest house is very comfortable and well equipped with a basic kitchen which allowed the breakfast to be served in the house and basic meals to be prepared. The bathroom was ample and the shower was great - plenty of water pressure and hot water which can be problems at other by-the-beach properties. Living space and bedroom are very spacious.
Breakfast: good and varied. It was not as ample or complete as a continental breakfast at a traditional hotel but what was served was of very high quality and very tasty. The hosts also provided replacements of any itens that we finished. There was fresh fruit, natural juice, great coffee, yogurt, bread and cold cuts.
Pet-friendly: not only they accept pets, they welcome them. We took our dog and he was very well received.
Location (again): although the location is a positive, the fact that it is at the top of a steep hill might be a problem. At the last day it rained and my car (which was a regular, non-4x4, automatic sedan - a vey unsuited car for such conditions) could not climb the last part of the hill. We needed a lift from the hosts to the guest house (which they wholeheartedly had offered and promptly provided). So, with the wrong vehicle it might be difficult to make the climb. Also, because of the house being at the top of the hill it ends up being far away from the beaches, making it almost required to go by car.
No AC: we didn't suffer from it because of the natural breeze and the fans provided in the rooms, but it is noteworthy that the accommodation does not have AC.

My five year old daughter put it best when she said Lena is a superstar. She was an amazing hostess providing wonderful breakfasts, great tour recommendations, and also booked a boat tour for us. The space was plenty big enough for our family of four and the balcony was a fun spot to relax in. The views of the sea and the Mata Atlantica were also quite nice.
The only challenge was the giant hill to drive up and down from the highway. And then without 4 wheel drive it was recommended not to drive the last 150 meters. It rained most of the time we were there so a bit challenging to walk up/down that hill, but Lena always offered to give us a ride in her 4X4 so we took her up on that offer each time.

We stayed there over a weekend. Magical place on the top of hill, lost in nature with an outstanding view of the forest and ocean. We accidentally landed on the full moon night, and the view cannot be described in words. The accommodation is as fantastic as the location. It is uphill though, and last 200 meters are best done with a 4x4. In our case, Lena was there to help. Such a charming personality, Lena's presence made our stay comfortable. Wonderful arrangements for breakfast. We had made a booking that got cancelled due to pandemic issues, I am so glad that we got the chance to be there this month. Highly, highly recommended.

Beautiful property set in the lush jungle of Brazil, about a 15-20 minute drive from downtown Paraty. We absolutely loved this place, the property had so much character and had a nice view as well. The owner Lena was one of the friendliest, most welcoming people we've ever met and she made our stay truly memorable. After a few days there it already felt like home. The rooms were very nice and we really liked the decor. There was also a nice sitting area in front of the main house with hammocks and lounge chairs and we enjoyed relaxing there every night and listening to the sound of the crickets. It's set in a very natural setting, and our last night there we saw the most stars I've ever seen in my life. The breakfast was also very good, and Lena was always offering throughout the day to prepare us a snack. She also recommended a beautiful waterfall hike nearby and when we couldn't find a taxi to take us there, she drove us herself. She was so accommodating and truly went out of her way to make our stay special. We also loved all her animals and the kids enjoyed playing with the dogs. After 3 days there, we were sad to say goodbye, and we hope to return someday in the future. Thanks Lena for your great hospitality, we'll always remember it.

It took us about 4h to get to this place from Petropolis by a car though the busy but wonderful seaside road. And it 1000% worth our efforts, once we turned our car up the hill and plunged into the green vibe of the Atlantic forest. As many guests write here about BusStop location, our car didn't manage to get last hundred meters up the hill (was a bit slippery after the rain). Nevertheless we were nicely welcomed by worried dogs and happy owner Lena, who picked us up with all our belongings... :) And here we are - exactly like on the pictures, in a fantastics chalet surrounded by nature. Rooms have unique design and filled with art objects collected by Lena from all around the world. Interior is somehow minimalistic but sufficient and with absolutely great taste. Wherever your eyes fall, you see how greatly all these elements and details interplay and enhance the whole spirit of the place. Going beyond art taste, you'll plunge into the art of food too, enjoying delicious breakfast carefully prepared by Lena from the local supplies including multitude of homemade jams, cheeses, breads, juices, smoothies, fresh cuts... MMMM!
And after all, this place is all about being IN THE NATURE! Undoubtedly it will welcome and relax you - all what you need after busy days of travelling :)
We found that location was also very convenient to explore nearby area. It took us about 5min driving to the nearest small sandy beach (surprisingly not overcrowded at this time of the year, maybe because it's not so well known) with clean turquoise water. Famous Paraty is about 15min driving (worth to see well preserved old centre).
Once you will stay at this wonderful place, don't forget to wake up before sunrise and enjoy from your terrace this majestic play of the colours in the sky! Unforgettable!
Nothing :)

Внутри дома очень много антикварных и красивых вещей, приятная мебель и посуда.
Вокруг дома замечательный сад, мы видели маленьких обезьянок в хорошую погоду. Также нас порадовали местные собаки ☺️
Клив очень помог нам, была дождливая погода и он все время довозил нас на место на своей машине, мы парковались ниже по дороге. Также помогал с местными развлечениями и подсказал лучшие пляжи, мы остались довольны. И готовил очень вкусный завтрак!
Это очень маленькое замечание, но может быть кого-то это затруднит. В номере не было шампуня, только мыло.

8.0 / 10.0
O local que ficamos hospedados estava extremamente limpo e muito bem cuidado, além de estar próximo do centro (cerca de 10 minutos de carro). A Lena e o Clive foram muito atenciosos e nos forneceram todos os equipamentos necessários para nossa estadia, bem como algumas dicas para aproveitarmos melhor a cidade. Além disso, a vista do chalé é um espetáculo à parte e o café da manhã é muito saboroso!
A localização (apesar da vista maravilhosa) pode trazer muitas dificuldades caso você não tenha um carro potente ou em caso de chuva. Infelizmente demos azar de pegarmos um feriado chuvoso, o que estragou um pouco nossa estadia. Esse ponto não é um problema, desde que você esteja ciente que talvez terá que subir uma ladeira andando.
Um outro ponto que é mais um feedback, mas que poderia melhorar, seria a comunicação num geral, uma vez que, apesar de ter dado várias dicas para aproveitarmos melhor a cidade (o que que com certeza nos ajudou), algumas oportunidades em que a Lena se prontificou para ajudar acabaram ficando meio soltas e talvez esquecidas.
Exemplos: agendamento do passeio do barco com antecedência, onde fomos assegurados que ela entraria contato com a empresa responsável pelo passeio, mas que acabamos não conseguindo fazer pq todos os passeios já estavam com as vagas preenchidas quando tivemos um retorno (um dia de antecedência). Diante dessa falha na comunicação, não tivemos tempo hábil para agendar o passeio no único dia que teria sol (algo que seria facilmente sido resolvido se fossemos comunicados com antecedência). Um outro exemplo seriam as surpresas que havia pedido para comemorar uma data especial com minha esposa, que infelizmente acabou sendo esquecido.

Todo! Su ubicación era perfecta, pues queda cerca en auto para ir a playas (como praia de sao gonçalo, praia grande y muchas otras!), como también al centro histórico de Paraty, al mismo tiempo que uno aloja en medio de la naturaleza. El desayuno era espectacular. El lugar es atendido por sus propios dueños, que son un amor, muy atentos, y dispuestos a hacer todo lo posible por hacer de tu estancia la mejor. El descanso y relajo que sentimos al estar rodeados del canto de los pájaros y con la hermosa vista del lugar es incomparable.

Um refúgio perfeito para quem busca descanso e tranquilidade. A localização afastada proporciona silêncio e contato com a natureza, criando uma experiência única. O bom gosto está presente em cada detalhe – das louças aos móveis, tudo foi pensado com elegância e harmonia. E a vista do nascer do sol? Simplesmente a mais linda que já vi. Um lugar inesquecível.
Tudo perfeito
