This is a great location in the safe and secluded neighbourhood of Urca in Rio de Janeiro. The house backs onto Morro da Urca and is a short walk to the cable car up Morro da Urca and Sugarloaf. There is also a walking track to access Morro da Urca which is very popular with runners and tourists rather than taking the cable car. The Red Beach is 5 minutes walk as are a number of good restaurants and the sea wall where you can sit, have a drink with many of the locals and watch the sunset over Botafogo Bay looking across at the mountains and Christ the Redeemer
The room is very spacious with everything you could need, the beautiful courtyard and pool and the excellent hosts mean it will definitely be a place I will return.
