I was in Rio for a family event with my wife, 12-year-old daughter and my 76-year-old mother. Isabella's place is in a terrific location, in residential Leblon but a very short walk to the restaurants, shops--and of course beaches--of Ipanema. The views are wonderful, and the penthouse has a very nice indoor-outdoor "flow." Communication was adequate, though inconsistent. All in all, a solid place.
