Jeanne’s apartment is located on the outskirts of Leblon and is around a 10 - 15 minute walk along the coast to the main shops/restaurants and Leblon beach. It also has another beach directly in front of the apartment which is accessible and only a few minutes walk away.
A lot of the main attractions in Rio are not within walking distance however you can easily get an Uber which is cheap in the city.
The apartment is spacious, clean and has a fantastic view of the sea. It also has great outside space. We felt safe within the apartment and the local area throughout the duration of our stay.
Jeanne was fantastic with communication and check in went exactly as planned. She was also kind enough to provide local area tips upon our arrival and allowed us to keep our luggage at her property after we checked out as we did not have a flight until the night time and this allowed us extra time to explore the city.
Overall we had a great time in Jeanne’s apartment and would highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Rio!
