The views of this place is unbeatable! Very window of this apartment had a beautiful view! The pictures were 100% accurate. The apartment was very clean and well decorated/renovated. The building was secured with a doorman and entry gate. Parking is very tight but it’s well expected as it’s Brazil. One thing to note is that the living room AC unit is only a fan so it can get pretty hot during the day. Both bedrooms had AC.
There was access to a private beach but I noticed there were mostly locals and a few Sheraton guests. Most of my days in Rio, I drove to the main beaches. There’s not a lot in short walking distance but everything is a short car ride. If you are going to walk, I would recommend staying closer to the left side of the building closest to the Sheraton hotel and don’t walk during the night.
Overall, I had an amazing stay! Antonio was very easy to communicate with and quickly responded to my questions. 10/10 I would recommend and definitely considering coming back one day!
