Mu husband and I stayed here for 3 nights in the beginning of April. Paraty was our side trip from Rio and we thought 3 nights would provide us a good break from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Immediately upon arriving to Pousada Guarana, we regretted not staying here longer. Both the town and the hotel were... more

I don't even know where to begin to describe what a wonderful stay my husband and I had at Pousada Guarana. This was the first stop on our Brazilian honeymoon, and it was impossible to top. Lovely town, lovely pousada, lovely people. The inn is full of amazing artistic touches, the rooms are huge and comfy, and the daily poolside... more

This place throughly deserves it's No.1 rating on this site. The owners are super friendly and passionate about the place, the breakfast is lovely - particularly compared to the usual breakfasts you get in Brazil; and the place itself is magic with all sorts of artistic touches around the place. The only thing I would point out is that its... more

The rooms were very nice, clean, and well designed. In addition to the comfortable digs, after we were settled the owner sat us down and gave us a nice breakdown of... more

Pousada Guarana was the perfect little hideaway from which you can explore Paraty or spend time relaxing in whilst you plan your next adventure. It provided a real home away from home for my friends and I, with Jimena and David being on hand to provide much needed plasters, medicines and a lovely environment in which to recuperate after inevitable... more

Almost everything about Pousada Guarana is perfect. My husband and I stayed there for 3 nights in April 2009 on the strength of the Tripadvisor reviews, and the pousada really lived up to expectations. David and Jimena, who own and run the pousada, are both lovely and incredibly helpful. They are both around at breakfast time which means you can... more

We stayed in Paraty for 3 nights in April and were fortunate to have found Pousada Guarana. The staff was amazing and the rooms were super clean and serviced well. Breakfast is great and the Pousada itself is taken care of with impeccable attention to detail. We enjoyed lounging around poolside and riding the bikes around Paraty. The staff helped... more
