This is a small but cozy place in the very best location! 1min walk to Ipanema beach and a few blocks from Copacabana, it could literally not be any better located (a few houses down the road is the fancy Fasano, prefered hotel of Madonna and alike). The place is super small, but if you don't plan to host a major dinner party or fight a bloody marital war, this is just as much as you need in a city that has as much to offer as Rio. Some of the city's best restaurants are just around the corner (e.g. Zaza) and the area belongs probably to the safest. I rather stop writing because otherwise I will get too sad missing Rio!
