Allan's place is beautifully located on a shady street just a block from the beach, with restaurants and shops in easy walking distance. The apartment is modern and newly renovated, situated in a small, older building that will remind you of an earlier Rio de Janeiro. Smooth cool floors easily wash away the Ipanema sand and cool your feet on warm days, while the air conditioning is definitely up to the task of cooling you on a summer day. Great stay, and can't wait to return!
