All in all a wonderful stay in a lovely space.
My check in went very smoothly after being met and shown the amenities by the darling host who gave me a bunch of tips and shared her knowledge of the local area. This wasn't my first time in Rio yet it was my first stay in the Copacabana neighborhood and I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to experience this wonderful part of town. The apartment is right in the mix located in the heart of Copacabana a 5 minute walk from Copacabana beach and around 10-15 minutes walk from Ipanema beach so you get the best of both worlds. The apartment is surrounded by endless restaurants and street bars - you'll be spoilt for choice.
The space itself is very comfortable and clean and comes with all the modern appliances and household necessities you need - the bikes were a great touch and I highly recommend going for a cycle along the beach cycle path of Copacabana through to Ipanema and back. Grab a coconut and enjoy the magical site of Rio de Janeiro.
