I lived in Rio for two years and this apartment has the best view of any place I have ever stayed. Perfect for the pandemic if you want to socially distance and truly a serene backdrop for a vacation. Omar do Rio’s team and the host, Roger, were extremely accommodating and even fixed my mistake of having booked the wrong dates (a snafu that we discovered as I arrived and they needed to act fast). I had a surgery while visiting the city, and Roger even offered to grab some groceries for me or offer assistance should I have needed it. On top of everything, the location is fantastic- right at the base of vidigal, only about a 15 minute walk to ipanema, and a short taxi trip to barra, lagoa, Copacabana, Botafogo, or anywhere else worth visiting in Rio. It was clean, super cute, and this is where I’ll be staying anytime I go back to rio.
