We loved spending 5 nights at Lisiene’s superb apartment in Rio. It was exactly as we envisage it to be from the listing. We found it to be ideally located for our purposes. It was close enough to the restaurants and beach in Leblon (around 12 minutes walk from the beach). The best feature was the balcony. At night we could sit out on the lovely balcony and look at the lights on the water and along the beach. The only sound you could hear was the sound of waves hitting the rocks below. A stunning location to relax at night. Lisiene couldn’t have been more helpful and pleasant. She made you feel very at home and couldn’t do enough to ensure the stay was memorable. We hope to return someday.
