This place was better than we could have hoped for even after seeing the beautiful photos. Marcela wasn't actually there to greet us, but she had sent her friends to welcome us who were extremely friendly and helpful. The flat has everything you would need - kitchen, double bedroom with air con, fans and also a small lounging area at the front. The flat is right next door to Marcela's beautiful house but still feels secluded and we definitely had our privacy. Just round the corner is the amazing pool and garden area, with plenty of space for sunbathing if you wish. All in all a wonderful little paradise in Rio within easy access of the main attractions of the city. Thank you Marcela!
