When is the best time to go to Cavalcanti?

The best time to visit Cavalcanti is during the dry season, from May to September, when the weather is generally sunny and warm, making it ideal for outdoor activities. During these months, you can expect less rainfall and comfortable temperatures, great for exploring the natural beauty of the region, such as the numerous waterfalls and hiking trails. This period allows for easier access to many of the more remote natural attractions without the hindrance of heavy downpours. For those planning to spend a lot of time outdoors, particularly couples and solo travellers looking for adventure, this dry period offers the most reliable conditions. You'll find it easier to enjoy activities like canyoning, rafting, and trekking to viewpoints with clear skies. The shoulder months of April and October can also be pleasant, offering a transition between the wet and dry seasons with fewer crowds.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Cavalcanti hotel for you.

Hotel Nacional Rio de Janeiro OFICIAL

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing view of the beach and mountains! I loved staying at Hotel Nacional so much it was clean and the staff were very friendly. They always kept our room tidy and made us feel so welcome. I want to go back already!"

Grand Hyatt Rio De Janeiro

8/10 Good

"It is located directly across from the beach. I like that. You must cross a busy highway to get to the beach. there are restaurants on the property. They do not offer inclusive meal plan. You can purchase food from street vendors on the beach side of the street. There is no night life and no shopping near. It is peaceful quiet and pleasant but unless you have transportation or use a lift service there is not much to do. I was glad to spend my time here. Unfortunately, I was not able to tour as much as I wanted to. They don’t seem to make offers on how to use tour services. So you are left to your own devices to find out. Since I have a late flight I asked for a late check out. That request was denied. They allowed me an hour and a half to stay in the room.I had to checkout.So even though they allowed me to stay on the property I was temporarily homeless.it felt very awkward sitting poolside with my luggage. It is a beautiful place and location. The staff is friendly and helpful. Since this was my first time in Brazil I didn’t know what to expect. I felt left on my own to discover and find tour packages. The language is Portuguese it is a good idea to learn it before you come. The television had a translation button but it didn’t translate. The tv shows were about 97% Portuguese. I didn’t come to watch tv so I didn’t mind, but again where’s the music dancing and night life. It is June which is their winter. It was rainy bring a jacket."
