Although we didn't get to meet Marilia in person, her hospitality was still as exceptional as we had read in her reviews.

Even though she was traveling abroad, she managed to maintain constant communication with us leading up to, and throughout our trip, answering any questions or providing suggestions and tips.

Her friends, family, maid, and even dog made us feel extremely welcome and safe throughout our entire trip!

Our trip to Rio de Janeiro was a once in a lifetime opportunity, and we can't thank Marilia enough for her amazing hospitality! We hope one day we can visit again!
