The apartment is exactly as seen in the pictures and I recommend it without any doubt! I went for 10 days during New Years 2021 with my family (3 adults and 3 kids aged 9, 7 and 4). The apartment worked perfectly for us. It is right across a wonderful beach, steps away from many bars and restaurants and also very easy in terms of access to practically everywhere in Rio. The view is incredible, exactly as shownin the pictures, which is a huge treat!!! We saw wonderful sunsets from our window. The apartment is beautiful and nicely decorated, very comfortable in terms of the beds, couch, chairs, which was important for us as we spent significant time at the apartment with the kids. The towels and linens are of good quality. Fully equipped kitchen. Ana Julia is a great host, always present when we needed and she made sure that all was going well. Important to say that the location is super safe. When it was time to leave, my kids say they could have stayed for 10 more days.
