This is the most beautiful, stylish, romantic space you could ask for. High upon the hill of Santa Theresa, your open-air apartment overlooks the city while you look up at Cristo the Redeemer.
The romantic Bondo trolly car comes up the way up to the house, and more convenient (and very affordable) busses pass by every few minutes. Otherwise this beautiful Art Deco home is a fair bit away from the hustle of Rio life, so you can enjoy cooking a romantic meal, going for a long walk, or sipping your coffee amongst the monkeys. Nature is all around, and you are very aware in this home that you are in a tropical guest house. Everywhere glass windows and doors open to let in the light and the fresh air. The climate of Rio makes the open-air kitchen and balcony spaces especially delightful, and the nights are cool enough to keep the glass doors to the patio wide open if you want to feel like you’re sleeping in the jungle.
Marjon was so friendly and delightful and helped us really make the best of our trip to Rio. Such and interesting and lovely woman with great stories to share.
The best experience was Marion’s grace when we accidentally broke something in her home. She was so calm and kind to us when this happened and help us find a solution that was fair for everyone.
This home and this person are your best bet for a relaxing trip to Rio.
