Me and my girlfriend had a wonderful time in Rio, made extra special by staying in Sandra and Vincent's lovely penthouse flat. The flat itself is lovely, being so high up the cooling breeze through the large sliding doors was welcome respite from the heat of the streets. We had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay and wouldn't change a thing about the flat. Location was ideal, with Copacabana, Ipanema and the Lagoa a ten minute walk away, with a good variety of restaurants and supermarkets a stroll away. We felt totally safe in the neighbourhood and would certainly return here when we find ourselves in Rio again.
