This penthouse has it all! Gorgeous view of the nearby hills and in a prime location for touristic needs. It's only a 5 min stroll to the beach and there is a supermarket right nearby and a place to grab a smoothie or quick lunch right across the street. There is a helpful doorman 24/7. The apartment is up to date (considering most Airbnbs I have stayed in prior in that part of town have out of date decor). The colors in the apartment and decor is breathtaking. The furniture is ample for a large group (we had 15). The deck/patio area is lovely and served to take our evening and late night conversations and get-togethers to a whole nother' level. Showers are spacious and sufficient water pressure. The room temperatures were kept perfect by the A/C. Being risen up 11 floors, the traffic and noise of the city were minimal. In fact, most of the time we heard birds chirping while taking in the stunning angles of the city. This would be a great apartment for first time travelers to Rio looking to do it right!
