Stunning views all over the apartment that’s pleasantly decorated, clean and spacious. The pitfalls - the toilet water smells VERY strongly of sewage. If you leave the bathroom doors open the entire apartment will reek of the smell. The beds are small for two people and not comfortable. During our stay there was no soap, shampoo or a standard size trash can in the apartment. Keep in mind that the road that leads to the apartment coming from Leblon experiences closures on some mornings so it’s hard to get an Uber at times. On the plus side, the host was attentive and quick to respond, the sound of the ocean and birds was super relaxing and the sunrise is out of this world and fills the apartment with the most beautiful golden light. With a few tweaks, I think the host could make this a great alternative to a hotel for a longer stay.
