A beautiful, spacious, artful apartment in the heart of Ipanema, close to beach, lagoon, bars, restaurants, yet on a leafy-green and quiet street. Amazing design elements and colors within the house, and very kind hosts Allegra and Bia (and Nelma, who cleaned the house) to greet you upon arrival—they go above and beyond to make for an excellent stay. The colored floor tiles alone are worth the stay and will remain in my dreams. Highly recommended!!
