Simply put, Ion and Shelia went out of their way to ensure our stay was absolutely perfect. Everything they did, each time we communicated their hospitality shone. Uber was easy to use to get around & Ion took us grocery shopping the first day
The home is a hidden oasis with a pool and several tables. Try a different one for each day’s breakfast. :) There are more than enough extra blankets and linens, silverware, plates, cups, power converters, anything you need they will already have or go out of their way to find it for you.
Do not stay here unless you intend to have the greatest stay of your life and make 2 new, life-long friends. The next time we are in Rio we will be staying here and only here. :)
As Anthony Bourdain reminded us, “Travel… sometimes breaks our hearts. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart and on your body.”
it was a real challenge leaving our new friends and giant chunk of our hearts in Rio. We HIGHLY, HIGHLY suggest staying here.
