Frequently Asked Questions

We're planning a trip to Aretê Hotel Búzios and want to experience the best of the natural surroundings. What wildlife can we realistically expect to see, and when is the ideal time to visit for optimal viewing?

We love the proximity of Aretê to the APA do Brasil, offering fantastic birdwatching opportunities. You can expect to spot numerous native bird species, and if you're lucky, perhaps even some capybaras near the Geribá Lagoon. We recommend visiting during the drier months, from April to September, for the clearest skies and most active wildlife.

Beyond the golf course, what specific nature activities does Aretê Hotel Búzios offer that truly leverage its unique location next to the lagoon and park?

While the golf is superb, we truly recommend exploring the trails adjacent to the Geribá Lagoon and the Parque Estadual da Costa do Sol. We've enjoyed guided nature walks that reveal hidden coves and offer incredible birding. The lodge also arranges kayaking on the lagoon, which is a serene way to connect with the local ecosystem.

Considering Aretê Hotel Búzios is an ultra-luxury property, what can we expect in terms of the lodge's atmosphere and its commitment to sustainability?

The lodge feels luxurious and timeless, with impeccable service that anticipates your every need. We appreciate their genuine commitment to sustainability, from local sourcing in their kitchens to thoughtful waste management. It’s a place where opulence and environmental consciousness coexist beautifully.

We're traveling with young children. Is Aretê Hotel Búzios genuinely child friendly, and what amenities or activities are specifically geared towards families?

Absolutely, Aretê is wonderfully child friendly. We've seen families delight in the spacious grounds and the dedicated children's pool. The staff are incredibly welcoming to younger guests, and the proximity to the lagoon offers safe, supervised opportunities for gentle exploration.

What's the best way to get to Aretê Hotel Búzios from the nearest major airport, and what are the typical costs associated with transfers for such an exclusive property?

The most convenient route is flying into Rio de Janeiro Galeão International Airport (GIG), followed by a private transfer. We recommend arranging this directly through the lodge for a seamless experience; expect costs to be in the higher range reflective of the ultra-luxury service. The scenic drive takes around three hours, allowing you to soak in the coastal Brazilian landscape.
