Great spacious apartment with incredible views of Copacabana and very convenient location just minutes from Ipanema as well. Nice details like beach chairs/towels/umbrella and boards for the water, as well as complimentary cachaca and lemons for making your own caipirinhas highly appreciated. Marcelo was not in Rio during our visit, but he was available and communicative, and Tina was great for the check-in/check-out and other questions. My main complaint is the lack of air-conditioning or more ventilators in the large living room area, which can get very hot. The two auxiliary bedrooms are ok for sleeping but are very basic, they could use some details to make them more inviting. Overall despite these relatively minor issues I would recommend and give 4.5.
