Isa and Paulo, they don't just rent their room, they treat you like family and welcome you into their home. Suddenly we had a grandma a dog and an aunt and uncle, fussing over us, telling us where to go, staying up with us to find and book tickets for the rest of our journey. Oh and the breakfast! I think its safe to say it will be the best breakfast we will see on this entire trip. Home made yogurt, local fruits, local cheese, fresh juice, fresh coffee... Local, fresh and homemade, I´ll leave it at that.

I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a real wholesome experience of Rio, travelling to the beach is easy, and discovering the absolute gem of a neighbourhood that is Santa Teresa is only a stones throw away. We´ve already decided with my partner that we will be back!

We loved everything about this place. We leave with happy memories, however they have now set the standard way too high for anywhere else we stay :)

They are super hosts! xxx
