The apartment from Rafael was simply great, a fantastic place to be in Rio. Very well located, in front of Rio’s best beach with easy access to other districts. We were 5 adults and one child and we were very well accommodated and comfortable and had a great time. The pool in the apartment and the open terrace is a great asset and we enjoyed everyday of it. Rafael was also very helpful taking care of all the details of our stay and making sure we felt like home. I highly recommend it!
