Art and Decoration: the components that make Vila Da Santa a unique accommodation

If you are a lover of art, antiques and enjoy being in environments where every detail tells a story, Vila Da Santa is the right place for you. Here the decor was designed to be part of your experience.

Where do the parts come from?

To better understand why art is such an important part of the Hotel, it is necessary to go back a little in our history.

When they decided to bring the hotel project to life in 2010, owners Bettina and Pierre d'Archemont chose not to decorate the rooms in a common way.

Instead, they decided to add to Vila Da Santa objects and pieces of art acquired during their more than 30 years of travel, mainly through France and Italy.

To accommodate all the works in an environment that connects them, the hotel was built in a similar way to Mediterranean houses, and is also an architectural landmark in Búzios.

The union of architecture and pieces gave the hotel a unique touch, where guests can relax during their stay while admiring the surrounding decoration.
