The location & the wonderful staff. The staff in particular - very friendly & helpful on arrival. We were made to feel very welcome. And when one of our group was very ill, they went above & beyond to help us. Honestly, we could not have asked for a better experience at Pousada Boyrá.

Showers could be refreshed

It is wonderful to spend a whole day there, the pool, the open bar sitting area and canoeing down the river were fantastic. And best cocktails in Brazil!

We have zero complaints.

Pousada Boyra was fantastic. From the moment we checked-in all our needs were met. The staff was amazing. They reached out before we arrived and asked us about preferences. My family has a variety of food allergies. Boyra's culinary staff, both the breakfast and dinner chefs, ensured we had a variety of amazing choices. Honestly, this was some of the best food and service we have ever received from a resort. Add to this, the staff attended to all our needs constantly. They were great with our kids and made our stay in Bonito perfect. Thank you Isa, Ja, and Fernanda for everything. We all hope to visit Boyra again.

Food is okay. Rooms are just passable.

Gorgeous grounds. Swimming holes excellent, bar and pool area very nice.

The only thing to mention is that the hotel can only be reached by a dirt road 15/20 minutes from Bonita.

A hotel resort next to the river with spacious rooms overlooking the swimming pool, the restaurant and bar area. Rooms are great, food is delicious, staff is super nice and attentive, pool is gorgeous. One can have a walk along the river that is just below the garden.

There’s not one thing we didn’t not like

Great hotel, food and amazing staff

Only the hot water in the shower could be a bit warmer

Beautiful paradise not too far from Bonito downtown. We stayed for only two nights during cold weather, but really enjoyed their facilities. You can see wild animals (such as araras) in the property. Also the host cat (Maria) was the cutest cat ever.

I am elderly and on occasion found walking up and down a central set of steps challenging. Overall, this was not a problem.

Boyrá has a simple elegance that blends with the local forest and river beyond. The food was excellent and beautifully presented. It is hard to overemphasize how warm and attentive were the staff. They anticipated your needs throughout the day, consulting you about lunch or beverage orders. Because of the small size of Boyrá, you truly get personal attention. The Rio Formoso is a few minutes walk on the Boyrá property and offers kayaking and swimming in a peaceful natural setting.

Nothing

The setting is gorgeous, the room was really nice, and everyone was very kind, helpful and welcoming. Dinner was also really good. And if you’re lucky you might even see an anteater on the road to the hotel! We booked the room on a whim because we were tired of staying in downtown Bonito and we were so glad we did. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to Bonito!

Thiago and Gregory were the most amazing hotel staff we encountered on our trip- incredibly friendly, generous and genuine. The hotel is in a beautiful remote, yet accessible location, the pool was stunning, and the food delicious. Would 100% stay again.

The room is super clean and has everything one needs. The rest of the property is not only beautiful, but also calm and one can truly relax and enjoy. The staff is amazing, so is the food.

The Sup/Kayak board renting on the river was with additional payment, we knew that only on check out. we would pay it anyway because the price is fair but they should share this information in advance.

my wife and I came to this amazing Garden of Eden on earth in pre-season at the end of November, unfurtunally we spent only 2 nights, I wish we could spend at least 4! The facilities are amazing, the staff is wonderful, helpful and very friendly and the close access to the river bank provides a major value to this isolated location. you should definitely plan to spend one day just enjoying the Pousada and not making plans and attractions for all your fun days in Bonito area.

Not much to dislike... the mini-bar fridge was a bit noisy ;-)

This is a special place. Beautiful scenery and nature all around. Very relaxing

A little far from downtown

Amazing staff, excellent breakfast and pool. Not crowded like regular hotels because they only have a few rooms. Very peaceful.

A really beautiful place! Clean and comfortable rooms. The staff is really friendly. Great food! It is recommended to stay and spend one day enjoying the facilities of the place and the river.

The only suggestion we have is to provide more vegetarian and vegan options on the breakfast and lunch menus.

We had the most wonderful stay at Pousada Boyrá. The staff went above and beyond to welcome us and make sure we were comfortable. The setting of Boyrá is stunning. The resort is situated right next to a beautiful clear river and we saw countless species of birds, butterflies, and other animals. our very first evening we saw a tapir drinking from the pool! The vegan food at Boyrá was another highlight - the chef was very creative and even came out to greet us when we sent him our compliments. We can’t wait to return to Pousada Boyrá. We only wish we could have spent more time relaxing and exploring this paradise.

The Pousada is in a beautiful place, very quiet and peaceful with gorgeous views, but a distance out of town on a dirt road. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and accommodating. The breakfast and dinner were delicious. The bathroom didn’t feel very clean with mould in the shower, dirty floors and sink splashback. The facilities are a little old and rundown.
