Stop reading and go and reserve this place immediately!!! It is a luxury apartment, meticulously clean, very very secure with door man 24 hours, and is so very close to the beach and cafes, restaurants, bars, etc. Its in Ipanema, but just of the calmer side, so you have the best situation. And very close to the main metro station of the Ipanema.
And, Adélia is so nice, helpful and even had beverages, coffee, beer ready, fruits. The bed was super comfortable, ironed sheets and fluffy towels. You can cook if you want ( the kitchen is superbly equipped), or just eat in the cafes nearby.
The apartment has a great atmosphere and you will feel at home!!!
