Fernando's place was a great find. The view from the apartment truly is beautiful. The pictures don't do it justice. He was very attentive and quick to respond to any inquiries we had. We were able to have drinks beach-side and run back to the bathroom when needed in less than 5 minutes. This is definitely a plus when its $2.50 reals to use the bathroom on the beach.
The apartment itself was very well organized and had everything we needed; the AC was ice cold. We had three people in our group and everyone was comfortable. Having a supermarket about a block away was also convenient.
Overall Fernando's place was one of the best AirBnbs we've gotten in Rio, and I wouldn't think twice before staying here again.
