This Airbnb at Ipanema beach is conveniently located at the heart of the most desirable neighbourhood in the south zone of the city. With several high end restaurants just around the corner. The little “feirinha” on the square just in front of the building allow you to buy great quality fresh fruits and vegetables for a price much lower than the ones found on regular supermarkets.
The subway station is on a 5 minute walk for the apartment which gives you great access to different parts of the city at an affordable price. Neighbourhood is very safe with police personnel on key locations.
The touristic attractions like Sugar Loaf, Corcovado, Lapa at the city Center, Copacabana Beach (which is on five minute drive) can be reached in max 30 minutes depending on traffic and time of the day. I recommend to use Uber to move around town going to those places will cost sometimes just a couple of dollars to $10 depending on the destination chosen.
The doormen staff were great giving information and moving your car promptly if have one.
The apartment was spotless clean, well equipped and miss nothing to provide me and my father with a great stay. The host Silvia was promptly available to suggest restaurant and attractions available on neighbourhood of Ipanema. This Airbnb was the best one I stayed in Brazil. I have plans to return next year with my wife and kids.
I definitely recommend this apartment for my own family here in Brazil 🇧🇷 and to my my friends in Canada 🇨🇦 and the in United States 🇺🇸. Five star!
