We have just arrived from our three weeks holidays in Carlos apartment. We had the most amazing time. The apartment, looks just like the photos. It has everything you need and everything works. It is very safe. It is very well situated, one block from Copacabana beach and three from Ipanema. Carlos is always available for you trying to know if you are doing fine or if you need something. Supermarkets in almost every block, coffee place just down the apartment, the same with pizza place are very good. There is a restaurant on the block of the apartment and a fantastic sushi place about two blocks from there. Just a great place to spend some incredible time in Rio. Definitively, we would love to go back.
