Thiago was the best host that we can ask for. Before arrival we had thorough communication about our plans with visiting Rio. He went above and beyond to make sure plans were set for a birthday. He went above and beyond to make sure all of us were comfortable and well taken care of. He was very personable, professional and just an overall joy to have as a host. A small incident happened outside of the house and we were able to call him to ask for assistance. The incident took place outside of the house and he still came over immediately to assist with us with the translation. This just demonstrated his willingness to make sure we were safe and comfortable even outside of the house. I have never had an experience with a host so kind, so sweet and extremely genuine in making sure ALL of our needs were met- above and beyond like i did for the 7 days i had with Thiago. He was flexible with both an early checkin and late checkout. He assisted with providing the best home cooked meal on our last day as a farewell lunch. I’d highly recommend this place. This house is extremely close and convenient to Copacabana beach by a 10 minute walk or 3 minute car ride. Not speaking Portuguese was somewhat of a burden for myself and extra guest- but Thiago was there to assist with setting up dinner reservations, group activities , personal chefs and anything we needed outside of the home during our stay. And even went above and beyond by decorating the house with birthday decor to make my birthday super special. Providing a professionally curated cake and big chef prepared dinner.
I could go on and on. Nothing negative to say. Cant forget to mention- this house has so many cool spots for the best photo opportunities between the staircase, the rooftop balcony, the home entry. Would also recommend for those traveling with a lot of guest. This house is very big and having a bathroom in every room was very accomodating.
