This. Place. Is. MAGICAL. We found this listing over a year ago in planning our Carnaval trip to Brazil, and it far exceeded our expectations. The property is beautifully landscaped and built into the hillside overlooking the beach. Jeanne was so welcoming and gave us great suggestions for food, tours, and transportation. We ate at a charming Italian-run restaurant tucked into the favela above the house at her reccomendation - delicious. We'll be back!
