Amazing apartment in Ipanema, very well located at only a few meters from one of the most beautiful beaches of Rio de Janeiro. I spent a great time there visiting around. The apartment itself is very clean, very well renovated (everything has been very well thought), nicely furnished and decorated with a lot of taste! Rafael is a very nice person and provided me with all the information I needed to discover the neighborhood. Even if it is just a few meters from everything you need, the apartment is very quite and sunny, especially in the morning, with big windows that open on a lovely inner garden, making it a perfect spot for breakfast (bring your sun glasses!). The kitchen is very functional and there is a washing machine you can use to wash your clothes, which is very convenient if you plan to stay there more than a couple of days. Overall, I would highly recommend Rafael as a host and would be more than happy to welcome him in one of my properties in Canada!
