Casas Brancas Boutique Hotel & Spa was established in 1974, with only four rooms and when Búzios was just a remote fishing village.

Amalia de la Maria and Affonso Bebianno Montenegro jointly started the project of creating a small inn for adventurous tourists, interested in remote and poetic places.

With only one payphone located downtown, reservations were made. The streets were unpaved and the trip from Rio de Janeiro was a long expedition. Gradually, the couple developed a unique style in the space, incorporating objects of the local culture and hand picked pieces from travels abroad.

Over the years, new concepts and customs advanced, and Casas Brancas followed this growth, continuously modernizing, without losing the identity and without giving up their commitment to quality and style.

Currently, the hotel is still under the care of the same family, which ensures the permanence of its concept of hospitality and attention to detail. The same principles of excellence that accompanied the beginning of this trajectory more than four decades ago remain to this day. Finally, a diligent look at the reinventions required by the passing of the years also forms part of the place where the art of receiving well is treated with high priority.
