Area Description

Ipanema is one of the safest and most desirable neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro. The Ipanema beach is also one of the most famous with Cariocas (locals) running, exercising, playing volleyball, football (soccer) or just taking in the sun and scenery. Enjoy many of the tasty treats the beach vendors bring in your direction or have a caipirinha before you take a dip in the water. Ipanema is also full of great restaurants. Enjoy a chopp (beer) from one of the many bars that line the streets while enjoying some of the best people viewing in the world. Sundays and Tuesdays are great for local crafts fairs and street vendors.

Owner Supplied Testimonials
We stayed in this apartment in mid-March 2009. The location is great, close to the beach, in a very safe area and with restaurants, shops and bars nearby. Booking process was very smooth and responses were very quick. The apartment itself is spacious and very well decorated. I can honesty say we had no complaints and had a very nice stay there.
Delightful apartment. Very quiet and homey. Ownership was very helpful too with local restaurant reccomendations, arranging transportation, etc. We'll definitely come back.
This unit is well-decorated and has all amenities that anyone could need. It was particularly nice to stay here on the second week of my vacation because of the washer/dryer. It is in excellent condition, quiet, and spacious. It is in a perfect location -- so close to the prime beach, near the Hippie Fair, and excellent restaurants. I highly recommend the unit, and I would stay there again. I did not previously know the landlord, but found him to be both helpful, accomodating, and pleasant to work with.
My partner and I have stayed at this fantastic condo in Rio for two weeks in each of the past four years --each time during Carnaval. It's the PERFECT place to stay in Rio. Ipanema is one of, if not the, nicest neighborhoods in Rio, and this condo is perfectly located just a little more than a short block from the beach, a half-block from the Zona Sul supermarket, a half-block from the Hippie Fair (held each Sunday in the park across from the Zona Sul). The condo is spacious, clean, nicely decorated and quite pleasant. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are clean and modern, there's ample room to store your clothes, the kitchen is fully fucntional, and the air conditioning works really well. Each time we've visited, Ricardo has added something new to the place to upgrade it--so it's nice to see he takes pride in ownership. Ricardo is very easy to deal with and quite professional. And, the great thing is, his mother lives in Rio, she speaks fluent English, and she's available by phone if you have any questions or if, by chance, you need a new set of keys (which happened to us once when we lost a set at the beach). She's also helpful with putting you in touch with local travel guides if you want to visit a favela, go hang-gliding, or just need basic info on renting bikes, things like that. I can't imagine going to Rio and NOT staying at this place. It will spoil you. It's a nice building, with 24 hour security, and friendly tenants. If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email. I'm more than happy to field any particular questions you might have about staying at this condo. Honestly, if I could afford it, I'd buy a unit in this building. It's a perfect vacation location, and Rio is an amazing city. MUITO BOM!
This condo is modern, clean, quiet, and perfectly situated close to the beach in Ipanema. The kitchen and bathrooms have all the latest materials...granite, marble, great showers, and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. I've stayed here numerous times and look forward to it every year.
