If this is your first time in Rio, this listing is a must-have. You're right across the the street (Atlantic Avenue) from Copacabana beach. You have easy access to transportation, pharmacies, grocery stores, shops, and bars, of course. Every room has an air conditioner. The layout is very spacious, no typical cramped spaces like in many apartments in the city. I'm 6'4 and I was easily able to sleep comfortably in each of the beds, both of the couches, and even the hammock when the mood struck me. There's tons of natural lighting for great social media photos. The sinks in both bathrooms and in the kitchen have hot water which is rare in Brazil. There's also a dishwasher and dryer, and she included 3 hairdryers and a first aid kit among many other amenities that I've never seen in an AirBnB. Both Aki and her property manager, Charlotte, were always on top of anything we needed and available to answer questions (even in English). In short, whether you are looking to hang out on the beach all day or see the sights, this is the perfect place for you and your family. My only regret is that I had to leave.
