The view is amazing and while there are many great apartments with views in Rio, this view in particular is unmatched. It's only a 5 min walk to the beach! I'm staying in Rio for the summer and the host was kind enough to be flexible with me for the dates I booked. I was unsure of what area I wanted to live in for the summer and wanted to give Vidigal a try. Vidigal didn't workout for me due to personal preferences so the hosts kept their word and adjusted my stay length to my personal preference once I arrived. The hosts were extremely courteous. I would be cautious of booking this property for an extended stay as the setup is ideal for 2 people (max) for one or two days in my opinion. For me....this is the ideal location if I have 48hrs in Rio and looking for a picturesque location to retreat. I would come back to this location under those circumstances. If you're looking for a spacious home and something walkable to easily connect to other parts of Rio, this might not be the location for you. Easily one of the best views I've ever witness and nice accommodations.. can't thank the staff enough for their flexibility
