This penthouse exceeded all our expectations. Definitely coming back and staying here. You'll get a local experience of the area. Being back one street from the beach is perfect as it's much quieter, safer, and yet still be able to experience epic ocean views. It has a great rooftop with a plunge pool for those hot Rio days. Perfect place to relax and lounge around, and yet have access to all of the best that Rio has to offer being located in the best area of Ipanema. Eliene, is truly a remarkable host. She is super hospitable and goes the extra mile to make sure you feel very welcomed.
