The villa is amazing, absolutely gorgeous. Santa Teresa is a very special place and staying at the villa makes the experience even better. The swimming pool is brilliant and we spent hours there.
Luca was quick to answer any of our questions when booking and was very accommodating about timings, etc.
Fredson was a great host especially as we don’t speak any Portuguese. We were travelling with our two daughters. He and Andrea went out of their way to make the girls feel at home. They made us delicious breakfasts and had special treats for the girls.
It is worth noting that the ground floor spaces are shared with Fredson and Andrea, who are both wonderful people. I think they are also fixing the air conditioning, which would have been nice to have but the big windows, shutters, height ceilings, cool breezes and ceiling fans kept the place cool in April.
All in all this is must be one of the most special AirBnB properties in Rio, if not the world
