This flat is amazing - very cosy and charming. We spent here 30 days. The bed is a dream, the shower refreshing or hot, as you like - everything brand new. We had enough towels, enough bedlinen, the kitchen is very well equipped and the washingmashine and the laundry room was a gift too. So great, when you come home from the beach and you can take the service entrance and you can go directly to the second shower - so you do not carry all the sand through the whole apartment. The veranda we used for having breakfast or dinner. We did not use often the air-condition in the sleeping room (in the living room there is also one). But when we used it during three nights, this air-condition was great - new and silent. The area in Ipanema is great, shopping, restaurants, parcs, metro.... you will not miss a thing and it is close to the beach...what do you want more? Ahh, maybe an attentive and very lovely host. Elena was great and precise and Maira, who takes care of the flat is this too. As we got sick with Corona and had to stay at home for 10 days, they put a present basket in front of our door with fruits, breads, coconut water.... they offered their help always. Amazing job! We will not forget our stay here and we hope to return again. We just can recommend this flat and these wonderful ladies. Thank you very much! Rodrigo and Valeska
