A fantastic Airbnb in the center of Ipanema, a cool neighborhood in Rio. Lots of stores and restaurants around. Two short blocks to the most wonderful beach. The apartment is spacious. We were 5 and felt like we had plenty of space. The renovation of the space, in an old classic building, did not spare expenses. Great furniture, including 3 king size beds, top level appliances, shower flooring that is not slippery, beautiful china, very good air conditioners, big-screen TVs in every room, and a quiet space despite the major avenue traffic downstairs. Electronic lock makes it easy to come and go. Kitchen well-equipped. Paula communicates quickly and is flexible. I felt lucky to rent the place for a family reunion.
