The most AMAZING place!!! This was our first time in RIO, 3 friends joined of us, the 5 of us had the most fun in RIO. What a truly memorable experience, we only have smiles and EXTRA FUN memories from our time. From the very start, Pierre was friendly and kind; he quickly helped us secured his formidable place, so lucky to stay at his place: Copacabana-C. C has unparalleled views 360, the pics don't do justice to C... from sunrise to sunset, super wow to seeing RIO at all times. C is extra spacious- so HUGE actually that you need to text to find your friends, it is that awesome. Elegantly decorated, extra private from entering the building to C, the air conditioner works fantastic in each room, key to 30C at the beach . Pierre is an amazing host and like him, he has also the most fantastic team to protect his place and guests: Vincent, manager of C and Marta & Julia, protectors of C. Together, they ensure that guests like us have the most incredible experience. Vincent is knowledgeable, professional and friendly, he speaks many languages & he is fun. Our communications were prompt & clear, he went beyond managing C, to recommending Roshini, whom with her wonderful Team planned 3 amazing days discovering RIO: 8hrs exploring RIO, a full afternoon to sunset boat/paddle-boarding/bbq, to hang-gliding. AMAZING! :) Vincent and Roshini's attention to detail is the very best, we didn't have to think twice about options. NOW, Marta & Julia protected us every day at the apartment, they are sisters who compliment each other in every respect. They are deeply caring, with sincere smiles. Together, they made sure we had everything we needed at all times, from extra towels at the pool, to clean laundry, to delicious food/fruit, to drinks (cairpirinas & local beer), extra clean rooms; they took care of everything. AKA, their cooking is INCREDIBLE, lunch or dinner highly recommended, we miss Marta & Julia already. The 2 of them are truly gems to us. Thank you Pierre and your formidable team for sharing C with us. David's 40 birthday celebration was in every respect simply AWESOME b/c of each one of you. FOR ALL travelers to RIO, C has THE wow factor in every respect, 1 choice, the only choice!
