Marcia is an outstanding host! She's very thoughtful and caring and she treats her guests like family. This place is magical and full of personal touches, that will surprise you and keep you coming back. It's set in a wonderful location in Rio de Janeiro, it's the middle of Ipanema, the most iconic neighborhood, one block from the beach, one block from the subway, next to bars, juice spots, healthy markets, cafes, restaurants, and one block from the restaurant Garota de Ipanema, on the street named after Vinicius de Moraes who composed the famous song Girl from Ipanema. You will be lucky to stay at this private Villa and even luckier to meet Marcia and have her show you around in Rio! I can only thank Marcia for getting to know her and for having this amazing experience! Thank you Marcia! Muito obrigada!!!!! Beijos, Ju
