Planning trip in April

[phxtraveler]

Hello - my wife and I are planning to take a 2+ week trip to Brazil next month. We are having a difficult time deciding on the hotels to stay at in certain towns. Here's what we have so far:

Florianopolis - Ponta dos Ganchos
Ouro Preto - Pousada Mondego
Pantanal - Caiman Lodge
Natal - Pestana Natal
Rio de Jeneiro - Caesar Park Impanema

I think we are good with the hotels in Florianopolis and Rio, but not sure about the others. We are trying to make this a "luxury" trip, so we are looking to stay at top end hotels.

Any recommendations would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

For the price of a standard room at Caezar Park in Rio you should be able to rent a Penthouse apartment in Ipanema. We did. Much larger and nicer in my opinion.

Thanks for the suggestion! Any recommendations on how to get a penthouse?

Thanks for the recommendation! Do you have any suggestions on where I can check availability for penthouses in Ipanema?
