One of Búzios' rare beachfront bargains, this family-run cluster of three modest rooms and seven more spacious upstairs apartments sleeping up to four boasts a prime Orla Bardot location. Budget-minded travelers will appreciate the motel-like cheapies downstairs; those with extra reais to spend should reserve ahead for one of the two oceanfront quads with private terraces directly overlooking the water.
Argentine owner Cesar also offers four double rooms (R$250 to R$300) in his comfortable rental house 600m inland, with a spacious, fruit tree-shaded yard, pleasant outdoor deck, shared kitchen, barbecue and enclosed parking.
