The check-in and check-out processes were very easy. We especially liked the fact that there was an electronic lock on the door and we used a customized code to get into the apartment. The property was very clean, which really mattered to us. The location was extremely convenient, close to the beach, grocery store, coffee shop, and restaurants. The apartment had beach chairs, towels, and umbrella. The air conditioning units worked very well, which was also very important to us. The bed was quite comfortable. Chris, the owner, was very accessible and promptly addressed any questions we had. We would definitely stay there again!

Breakfast not included of course. Several excellent cafes in the area. Gringo Cafe, a couple of short blocks from the apartment will serve you bacon and eggs, even eggs Benedict.

The hosts were the best hosts I had in my life! The location of the apartment is perfect. The apartment had everything we need, it is super comfortable and clean. The beach is less than a minute away. Ipanema shops and nice places to eat are all a few minutes of walking distance. Most importanly, the hosts were super helpful. They made sure we had everything we needed. They also helped us with our itiniary and other travel arrangements, and gave us recommendations. We were so happy that we chose this place. It was definitely above and beyond our expectations! Thank you so much for making our trip a wonderful one!!

They’re not kidding about the location - it’s literally a short stroll across the road to Ipanema Beach. The hosts have made good use of the narrow apartment layout and have thoughtful features such as light beach chairs, a filtered water dispenser and cold bottled water, even a retractable washing line. We liked that there are three levels of security - the building gate, another door before the elevator, and the apartment keypad. The hosts were forthcoming with recommendations for Asian food (loads of eateries, minimarts around) and also offer a transfer service to and from the airport. It’s more expensive than Uber but since our flight out was very early in the morning, it made sense to have a trusted ride. Highly recommended.

Christiane met me and provided an excellent written briefing. Thoughtfully provided an artisanal beer to help me shake off the dust of travelling. The apartment is charming and is superbly located for restaurants and bars and only a minute’s walk from Ipanema beach. Really well fitted out and good use of space so as to be far preferable to many higher priced but smaller hotel rooms. So pleased I found it - a superb alternative to a hotel stay.

Very thoughtful extras, although we had a worldwide multi adapter, it did not fit some of the sockets, however the owners had a multi adapter, v handy. The large tvs with Netflix etc were great, especially as we had 4 days of heavy rain. Washer dryer was useful, although we found the dryer part to be a bit complicated! Complimentary toiletries were useful. Hosts were very helpful but not intrusive.

we were met by the owner Francois when we arrived who told us all we needed to know about everything in the apartment and also left a beer which my husband really enjoyed after a 7 hour journey! The location was excellent, the apartment was spotlessly clean and well equipped with 2 bathrooms and a kitchen with washing machine. The bed was super comfortable. I could not fault this place.
