We stayed at Casablanca 3 for our honeymoon in January 2016. We could not have dreamed of a more perfect place to spend our first visit to Rio. The location was easily accessible by taxi bus and on foot, but far enough from noise and crowds for us to relax and truly appreciate the beauty of the city. It was also easy to walk to the beach, grocery stores, restaurants, and shops; for longer distance trips to tourist sites, etc there was a convenient bus stop right in front of the house. The house and surroundings were so incredibly beautiful, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast lunch or dinner. Jeanne was wonderful and was always quick to answer any questions via email prior to our trip and even up until we arrived -- we had some issues with flight delays-- and she accommodated our schedule changes without issue. Her husband Atilio was also very nice and helpful throughout our stay. We are already dreaming of our next trip to Rio and Casablanca 3 will definitely be part of those plans.
