Marcio & Claudio were amazing hosts, and their space is beautiful and spacious. Communication was easy and constant, and they provided great recommendations on activities and places to eat within walking distance of the property. The location was perfect, a minute away from the base of the Sugar Loaf Mountain cable car. We were able to walk to one of the best beaches in Rio within 2-minutes, door to sand! This worked out especially well on our last morning, as we were able to walk over for a gorgeous morning sunrise. The hammock in the living room is a beautiful local touch, and reminds you of the beautiful country you're in. I would definitely stay here again when I'm back in Rio, and would recommend this place to any of my friends and family.
