The combination of an awesomely beautiful place and deliciously fantastic food can only mean PARADISE, if there is heaven and it’s something along those lines then I want to die now …
Buzios is located in Rio de Janeiro and it's about 3-4 hours driving from the city. It’s an amazing holiday spot with many beautiful beaches, bars, restaurants, shops etc. We stayed in Joao Fernandez and if you are looking for a tip for your next trip, you don’t need to go any further, we can share all the details with you and I can guarantee this will be a holiday to remember forever…
We rented a big house for 10 people and a little toddler (Mummies although this place doesn’t look child friendly , we managed just fine with a very active 2 year old and no issues with either edges , cliffs or swimming pool , you just have to be aware at all times thou) The house is absolutely beautiful and spacious, highly recommended for a big group , you can check the details on their website : http://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p575895149?cid=E_habrownerinquiry_DB_O_20110208_thumbnail_text_LPROP_
It’s the BEST location in Buzios with the most stunning view , its priceless waking up and looking at the sea first thing in the morning...

And of course not to mention the adorable Ezio and his wife (housekeepers) Ezio is in charge of the food and Roseli is in charge of the cleaning, so you can imagine what kind of royalty treatment we had…
Ezio really impressed us with his cooking and passion for food, every morning he would wake up and start preparing our menus according to what we wanted to eat on the day , the fish was picked up fresh in the early morning from the fisherman’s market and the house was filled with different aromas every day.
The dishes varied from Brazilian fish stew the famous “Muqueca de Peixe com Frutos do Mar” to typical Brazilian dishes such as “Feijoada and Arroz Carreteiro” which is a pot of slow cooked black beans with cured meat and sausages served with in this case with fried rice but typically you can serve it with simple steamed rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and there was never any leftover… we always made sure we ate everything and complemented the meal with lovely caipirokas de maracuja (passion fruit cocktails)… what a beautiful way to enjoy life!!!
