Loved the apartment - everything we expected and more. Would highly reccommend it to anyone going to Rio.

The apartment itself is unique and well worth returning to if we traveled to Brasil again. It provided every amenity of a fully equipped apartment. We appreciated that personal towels and washcloths were provided. The view the the porch was very nice. It was spacious with such a great display of Brazilian art. I enjoyed quiet time on the covered porch with the beautiful array of plant life that added an atmosphere of peace. It is private even though it seems to be located in midst of local activity. We were able to get a great view of the New Years fire works from the back porch with no obstruction. The furnishings are very modern with a rich feel and the beds made for a comfortable sleep. **I feel the apartment is well situated in the heart of experiencing Brasil at its best. The walk to the beach was an amazing venture. The sidewalk merchants, the outdoor pubs, the selling on the beach are all part of my forever memories. There are plenty of landmarks to navigate back and forth to the secure and gated apartment when we went out. The apartment is located to have easy access to the outdoor restaurants and the convenience of the food market and shopping. This makes it real easy for first time visitors. We were careful not to venture to far. The Brazilian people are warm and helpful when we stumbled through interpreting English and Portuguese. Highly recommended

The apartment is a little better than described. There is a washer and a dryer and clothes lines - the latter is rare in Rio de Janeiro. The furniture and furnishings, above all the two main beds are wonderful. The views of the ocean and beach are great. Although there are restaurants and bars on the street level, the apartment is too high up to hear all that noise below. The kitchen has everything you want. The greenery from the many plants is a delightful. The owner was very conscientious in attending to any calls or emails. The bus stops are a block away.

Great location in Copacabana. 2 blocks from the beach, about a 15 min walk to Ipanema. The doorman to the building was very nice and check-in/out was a piece of cake. The large patio was perfect for lounging at the end of the day, and the apartment itself was very spacious.Only downside was that the 3rd bathroom was under construction when we arrived, and with 6 women staying there, we opted for this place specifically for the 3rd bathroom.Be sure to use the fans in the apartment as it was very humid outside and could make the place seem muggy!

Fantastic apartment very near the beach. Beautiful art work. Great time had by all.
