My son and I had a great time staying in Silvia and Daniel's cute apartment , situated just a stone's throw from Ipanema Beach. It's a really charming apartment, and we felt very comfortable and right at home. The location was perfect - right near the Sunday hippie market (which sold quality clothes, art, jewellery and homewares) and over the road from a 24-hour supermarket, which also had a yummy pizzeria at the back. We also bought fresh fruit from the regular Ipanema markets. Daniel met us on arrival and did a quick tour of the apartment and gave us maps with places to visit and to eat. The apartment was perfectly safe, with a 24-hour doorman. I absolutely fell in love with Rio and hope to return at the end of the year, with the experience of staying in the apartment a huge contributing factor!! I can't recommend this apartment and Daniel and Silvia highly enough. It was a perfect Airbnb experience! Thank you Daniel and Silvia for a very memorable stay!
