Luxury hotels, hotel suites and fine dining restaurants in Brazil

<h2>Vacations in Brazil&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;As one of the planet’s key hotspots for biodiversity, the tropical backdrop of Brazil, along with its iconic beaches and vibrant cities like Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, makes it a compelling destination–no surprise that it is the most popular country in South America for holidays. Our luxury hotels in Brazil offer the perfect base for your Amazonian adventures and for exploring the country’s varied landscapes and cultural attractions.&nbsp;&nbsp;From our 5 star hotels in Brazil, tick off a Brazilian bucket list of exotic holiday dreams: soak up the sun on white sandy beaches, surrounded by coconut palms and lush forests on one side, and the warm, crystalline waters of the South Atlantic Ocean on the other; explore exotic countryside and spectacular panoramas filled with plant- and animal life that’s unique in the world. Occupying delightful grounds, including landscaped gardens, our luxury hotels in Brazil immerse guests in nature that extends to the horizon.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Authentic cultural immersions–our best luxury hotels in Brazil&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;Our luxury hotel suites in Brazil also tell a story of the country’s varied cultural history and international influences, ranging from baronial manor houses that look like they’ve been uprooted from Europe, with sumptuous palatial interiors and décor, to forest lodgings built from indigenous materials that blend perfectly into the environment, built to allow the warm breeze to blow through. As with all Relais &amp; Châteaux properties globally, no two of our boutique hotels in Brazil are alike, making for a more authentic experience and a memorable vacation.&nbsp;&nbsp;From a gastronomic perspective, our fine dining restaurants in Brazil also reflect this diverse background, with local, seasonal ingredients and unusual flavors mixed with produce from other Latin American countries or with European culinary influences and techniques, including, of course, Brazil’s relationship with the Portuguese over the last 500 years. Some properties hold regular gastronomic festivals.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Dine under the stars in our fine dining restaurants in Brazil&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;Brazel’s sheer size makes for a culinary diversity that reflects profound contrasts in its terrain, climate and cultural heritage. To give just two extremes, in the north, expect dishes built around the sea, influenced by African flavors; in the south, discover more of a meat-eating culture, reflecting its gaucho roots. To drink, sample the sophistication of wine culture inspired by German and Italian influences, or take in the traditions of the country’s emblematic mate tea.&nbsp;&nbsp;Our gastronomic restaurants in Brazil reinterpret the full range of traditional Brazilian dishes for contemporary tastes, with sophisticated dining rooms that offer incredible views over the scenery. Others bring the outside in or seat guests in the open air where you can end the night under the stars. Our talented sommeliers are in charge of varied cellars that celebrate regional bottlings–from Brazilian-only grapes to the rest of Latin America–as well as Old World wines. They work closely with chefs to suggest delicious pairings. Enjoy cocktails on the beach or by the pool.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Travel to Brazil and get under the skin of its varied culture&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;Awaken the senses with activities and excursions that immerse you in Brazil’s enchanting natural environments. Our concierges can help you plan your vacation, with guided tours to help you explore its wild landscapes, mountains and valleys, waterfalls, rivers and coastal areas, where you can enjoy unspoiled scenery or follow nature trails for wildlife-spotting and birdwatching. Discover charming towns and villages rich in culture and folklore, where you’ll feel the beat of local music, dance or capoeira–and can even take a lesson if you like. In beach areas, find all the waterborne activities you expect–from kayaking to surfing, with equipment to borrow and tuition available in some locations. For a more chilled-out vacation, our luxury spa hotels in Brazil offer a chance to unwind in hammams, saunas, meditation classes and yoga experiences.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Eco hotels in Brazil that cherish the natural world&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;Our luxury hotels in Brazil take their environmental and cultural responsibilities seriously, and participate in programs to support local wildlife and to preserve the cultural identity of their surroundings. In some locations guests can assist hatchling turtles on beaches, guiding them safely into the water and away from more populous areas, or trips can be arranged to meet local smallholder farmers to gain a sense of the challenges and opportunities facing them, all while identifying ingredients our chefs can prepare for you later that day. This kind of responsible travel in Brazil brings to life the values and ambition of our global Association–to preserve, protect and restore the natural world and its many forms of cultural and culinary heritage.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Our approach to hospitality: Relais &amp; Châteaux in Brazil&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;Our global collection of hotels and restaurants are all independently owned–and smaller, ‘human-scaled’ properties. With most of them family businesses, they are each guardians of local design, cultural and culinary heritage and often have unrivalled knowledge of their local communities and wider regions. Those close connections often run back several generations and mean our eco hotels in Brazil play a key role at the heart of their communities, providing employment and bringing together local artisans, farmers and other suppliers in the name of hospitality. It makes for a human touch, a warm welcome and an attentive level of service that is innately Relais &amp; Châteaux.&nbsp;&nbsp;
