We stayed with Gabriel and Marisa for 1 week in their Rio apartment and everything was so amazing - it well and truly exceeded our expectations! The apartment was beautiful, spacious and very comfortable for our stay. The location is really safe and so close to everything you could need (supermarket, metro, shops, cafes and restaurants) and only block away from Ipanema Beach, which is beautiful. Marisa and Gabriel are fantastic hosts and were always so welcoming and eager to help us plan where to go and if we had questions about anything. They also both speak impeccable English. Highly recommend staying at their apartment, thank you guys for a lovely week in Rio!
