My experience staying at the Leblon Beach House was a very unique.
It is a very charming old house , very funky. The location is one the best in Rio and the view is priceless. You have an ocean view from your room and you can actually hear the waves. The house is very peaceful and calm. I have to say if your looking for an Hotel experience this will not be the place. The accommodations are as simple and basic as they come, no thrills. Also there are never ending stairs, so you need to be in shape. I would recommend this apartment to someone who is independent and low maintenance. The innkeeper Jake went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. The tenants in the building are extremely friendly and helpful. Each mourning everyone comes out of there apartment onto the terrace to enjoy coffee, conversation and the ocean view. I met beautiful and interesting people while staying at Leblon Beach House and would stay there again.
