This property is amazing! Little gems such as this space are why Airbnb exists, you wouldn’t find anything like this otherwise. The views were as advertised in photos but much better in person. The chalet was charming, quaint and beautiful but slightly small. The area was safe, short walk to both ipanema and copacubana beaches with good restaurants also in these areas.
While we did not meet Piero, his family live in the apartment below the chalet. They were all very friendly, gracious and helpful to us throughout our stay and even let us check in slightly early as our flight landed at 6am.
