Beautiful, chic and well appointed, Bruno's apartment in Ipanema was more than we expected! Its location -- at the end of a very quiet road -- is ideal for those who want to explore the neighborhood, its lagoon, and its beautiful beach. The apartment is beautifully decorated, but, even more impressive, are the little details. For example, Bruno has installed outlets that can handle USB and US plugs. He also has prepared a guide with many neighborhood recommendations, including small maps of their location in relation to his apartment. The bedding was notable too. It was amazingly clean and comfortable, a feature well appreciated after a day or evening out! Bruno, as a host, communicated clearly, kindly and in a timely manner before, during and after our stay. Sadly, we were in his beautiful apartment for only two nights; I wish I had spent a week there!!! I fell in love with Rio, and I know I'll be back. I'll be contacting Bruno because his place was perfect for a stay in paradise!
