Our house was built in 2003 by a famous local architect who is known for his high ceilings and beautiful style. The house is our second home and a place were we love to be with friends and family. It is cozy, functional and has all the amenities one need in a beach/golf/vacation house.
The house is situated inside a Golf course and has stunning views to the course and the sea. The course was designed by Pete and Perry Dye, from Dye Designs in Colorado, and coordinated by Dom Eudes de Orleans e Bragança, the Búzios Golf Club has over 1,000,000 m2 of green areas with valleys and hills bordering the lakes with 18 holes of golf. For those who love to play golf, this course could be really challenging in a windy day, a must see and play. (www.buziosgolf.com.br)
Buzios village is only 8km/10 minutes away from the house and has it's own story, it was originally settled by European pirates and slave traders, this happy mixture of many bloods prospered and became a picturesque fishing village, elected one of the 10 most beautiful areas in the world, famous for its unique combination of rustic charm, architectural harmony, incredible beauty and sophisticated boutiques and restaurants frequented by discerning visitors who come from all over the world to savour its magic. In the early 70's Brigite Bardot elected Buzios one of her favorite places in the world and you can see her bronze statute in Rua das Pedras overlooking the sea.
“The house is beautiful, and makes you want to stay all day there! Even better than on the pictures! The surroundings are great, in a middle of a golf, with a great view. It was easy to get to beaches and stores with a car. Paolo and Rosanna, the housekeepers were lovely and helpful. Jaime was very easy to communicate with, and took great care of our house!”
“Desde el primer momento la comunicación con Jaime fue fácil y fluida es una persona encantadora. la estancia en esta casa ha sido una experiencia inolvidable.Hemos disfrutado de la exquisita decoración que tan personalmente has realizado y el extraordinario diseño de la jardinería,con una combinacion de plantas perfecta Siguiendo sus sabias sugerencias hemos comido prácticamente todos los días allí aprovechando las habilidades culinarias de Rosana y hemos disfrutado de las múltiples formas de caipirinhas que prepara Paulo.Pero sobretodo hemos apreciado la discreción,eficiencia y educación de esta familia que cuida la casa. El entorno de la casa es extraordinario dentro de un campo de golf y en la proximidad hay hasta 23 playas todas extraordinarias.Un lugar perfecto para el relax y disfrutar de un tipo de vida hoy desafortunadamente desaparecida.Muy recomendable.”
“Staying at Jamie's house has been one of the most beautiful vacation experiences we had in our lives. The house is wonderful, very spacious, luminous, comfortable, full of details that makes it unique. Being an interior designer myself, it has been especially interesting to see his collections of various objects and to marvel at those illuminated ceilings. Jaime has been a very attentive host to all our needs and the communication with him has been very fluid. Rossana and Paulo had always been attentive to our needs. Thank you Jaime !!! We hope to come back someday to enjoy a little more of your paradise in Buzios !!!”
“We had an unforgettable five night stay at Jaime's property which was even better than we expected. The house is very spacious and tastefully decorated with everything you could possibly need. Our highlight was getting to know (through lots of actions, gestures and use of a dictionary) the housekeeper Rosanna, her husband Paulo and their daughter. They couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful (Paulo even took us to the car hire centre in Buzios as we don't speak Portuguese) and returned the car after we left. Rosanna cooked us a wonderful meal on our last night. Jaimé was extremely helpful in organising our trip and was always prompt when replying to emails. He even organised our transfer to and from Rio airport and phoned during our stay to make sure that everything was okay. We will never forget our time in Buzios!”
“We liked it so much we went back for a 2nd stay! Jaime was Very accommodating with our bookings and his staff are truly fantastic. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy a wonderful part of Brazil I can highly recommend this spacious home. Kind Regards-Murray”
“We had a wonderful stay at Jaime's property. The house is fantastic and beautifully located overlooking the golf course. On arrival, Jaime's housekeeper had prepared a great lunch of local fish, rice, beans and salad. We spent most of our time by the pool and bbq area, enjoying the sun and peace and tranquillity of the location. I would highly recommend this property.”
“If you ever wanted to stay in a home that is straigth out of Architectural Digest, this is the home. It is beautiful and the decoration is amazing! We were extremely well looked after by Rosana and Paulo. She is a great cook, a wonderful house keeper and Paulo makes the best Caipirinhas ever! Jaime, our wonderful host, is extremely friendly and helpful. Our vacation in Búzios was unforgettable! Thank you Jaime, thank you Rosana, thank you Paulo!”
“WE STAYED AT THIS MAGNIFICENT HOUSE OF JAIME'S FOR 12 DAYS AND IT WAS ONLY FANTASTIC. HIS DIRECTIONS FROM RIO WERE EXCELLENT. ROSANNA & PAULO LOOKED AFTER US VERY WELL AND ROSANNA'S COOKING WAS DELICIOUS. THE HOUSES HAD EVERYTHING THAT WE NEEDED WE WERE VERY KINDLY GIVEN TWO GOLF BAGS ON LOAN SO AS WE ONLY HAD TO BRING TWO GOLF BAGS WITH US WITH 4 HALF SETS OF GOLF CLUBS. IT WOULD BE A GOLFERS DREAM LOCATION. BUZIOS WAS A GREAT TOWN WITH BRILLENT BEACHED WITH GREAT SURF WHICH OUR BOYS REALLY ENJOYED. THERE WERE PLENTY OF RESTAURANTS ALSO.”
“Everything was perfect and Jaime is always available at any request to help make your tay unforgettable. The house is really well decorated and located in an amazing place. We only can recommand this house to visit Brazil. Unforgettable holydays. ”
“Exceptional house and interior decoration (superb collection of african statues and terracotta pots). Very easy to exchange with Jaime: fast and friendly communication. Very nice view as the house is on a hilltop surrounded by a golf course. If you want to relax, Paola and Rosanna who take care of the house will cook excellent food, clean and....prepare the best caipirnha for you :) ”
“Great trip. Nice house and very nice proprietary. Amazing experience. ”
