  • The place was BEAUTIFUL. It far exceeded our expectations. The delicious breakfast with a beautiful view. The service and warmth of Mara and her husband, two very nice people. It was not difficult for us to communicate since Mara speaks Portuguese and English and somehow we always understood each other without problem.

  • The rooms were cozy and perfect for what I needed for my retreat experience. The kindly hosts and skilled cooking staff provided delicious food, and overall I had a peaceful time. Maravilha itself is located about a 10 mins walk to one beach, a bit longer to another beach, and nearby a lovely forest walk and a gorgeous cliffs area. I loved the space and appreciated the people.

  • Chris and Mara were exceptional hosts for our group. The accommodations were comfortable, clean and well appointed with an amazing view of the ocean. The food was excellent. Nearby hiking trails and beaches were easily accessible. The charming town of Buzios was a short drive from the retreat. Had a great time! Highly recommended.

  • View of the ocean with distant islands and mountains under a partly cloudy sky, seen from a balcony with a black railing and some green foliage on the right.

    Beautiful views and comfortable stay Beautiful setting overlooking the ocean. There is a sauna which we also enjoyed both nights we stayed there. The breakfast quality is great and the view on the ocean is just perfect. We enjoyed our stay and recommend the place. Super nice Italian lady who manages the place. We had a car which we think is needed if you want to fully enjoy the area and reach town but there are quite a few restaurants at walking distance near the closest beach.

  • Maravilha is one of those special places you don't find really often. The accommodations is absolutely stunning — spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and the cleanliness was impeccable. One highlight is the outside area with pool and a big terrace with ocean view. The breakfast is outstanding and offers a wide variety of delicous fresh food. What truly set this hotel apart, though, was the exceptional service provided by the staff. My host Maressa was super attentive and always ready to assist with a smile. She did everything to ensure I had a great time. Additionally Maravilha has a range of wellness offers. The massages I got were incredible. I highly recommend Maravilha to anyone looking for a relaxing, enjoyable stay with outstanding accommodation, delicious food, and top-notch service.

  • Wonderful views! As we went out on the terrace to appreciate the magic of Buzios, he let us know that it was worth choosing the Mara Inn. A lot of tranquility to rest and most importantly, Mara's attention at all times.

  • The place is beautiful, the accommodation we could not choose better, the ferradurinha beach that is 3min away is the most beautiful in Buzios! The view of the accommodation is inexplicably beautiful, and the peace that the place has is what one needs to disconnect. I have no complaints, everything was perfect

  • The attention and warmth of Mara, as well as of all the people who work there. They were kindly available for all the things we requested. The natural landscape, the outside area, the shared areas, the balconies. The building's structure is integrated into the natural environment, it is excellent. The hospitality style is efficient but also relaxed. We could come back from dinner at any time and open the door ourselves, with agile and safe technology. The wifi was perfect anywhere in the place. We will definitely return and recommend to everyone do not miss staying at this amazing place, full of beautiful and damaged energy!
