We had a fabulous stay at Jennifer's studio. The studio is in Santa Teresa, up in the hills that over look Lapa. It is a beautiful area, slightly more laid back than the normal tourist spots of Ipenema and Copacabana but still central enough to explore Rio and spend time at the beach.
The studio was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The views were just amazing! There was lots of space and a lovely hammock to relax in. Jennifer and her husband are extremely knowledgable about Rio and especial the carnival (which is why we were there) and more than happy to share that knowledge with us to ensure we made the most of our trip.
We would love to come again!
