Our comments

This pousada is a good alternative to Casas Brancas. Does not accept children under 14.

When to go

It can be quite cool from July to August, and hottest from December to February (also the busiest time of year and more expensive with national holidays).

Client comments and reviews

Open QuoteWe were a little disappointed with Vila d'Este. The superior room had a great [sea] view but was very small and there was almost no wardrobe space. The location is stunning but it was also a shame that the lower gate was out of order for part of our stay.Close Quote - PH (February 2013)
Open QuoteI don't think we've ever had a better end to a holiday!Close Quote - TB (December 2011)
Open QuoteThe team at Vila d'Este was great and couldn't help us enough. The Brazilian champagne was actually very nice and they?d decorated our suite with petals. I think the caiparinha and oysters on the beach was the moment we realized we were in for a special trip and the stress of wedding planning faded away. They also recommended and arranged a trip to Cabo Frio to take a boat trip and even found an English speaking guide. It was amazing; we went snorkelling and found a turtle.Close Quote - AT (August 2008)
