Fantastic Place
My stay at Luis & Debora's house was absolutely fantastic. It is as beautiful as the pictures show and much more.
Location is great as Urca is a quiet, residential area with very easy access to all major attractions in Rio. It is 2 minutes away from Praia Vermelha and to a lovely walk/trail with sea view to Pista Claudio Coutinho and Sugar Loaf. There are good restaurants nearby, banks, buses; in short, all you need.
Delicious breakfast was served in their pretty and secluded garden with a pool which is at the foot of Sugar Loaf. I loved the huge shower they have in the garden - coming back from a walk to Sugar Loaf or from the beach and having a cold shower in the garden was pure bliss.

The house is immaculately clean and beautiful. The room with en-suite bathroom is lovely with view to the cable cars and Sugar Loaf. There is good air conditioning as well.
Luis and Debora were very professional in all commmunications and always willing to accommodate our requests and making as feel totaly at home.
I would highly recommend Luis and Debora’s place to anyone who wants to see all of Rio and after a tiring and hot day come back to a safe and beautiful haven.
