This place is one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. The garden and pool are magical. You're just a 10-15 drive from the beaches and main action of Rio, but it feels like you're in the middle of the jungle. The guest house is cozy and has everything you need. Marcela is such a kind spirit and you can see her energy reflected in the house-- everything was organically designed and is shaped as time passes. Highly recommend!
