We recently had a wonderful opportunity to stay on Copacabana Beach in Moises’ apartment. The apartment is strategically located three blocks from the Metro (subway) and on the beach, immediately adjacent to the Copacabana Palace. The view from the seventh floor was striking – looking south down the beach towards Fort Copacabana. The apartment itself was very clean and nicely appointed. There are two separate sleeping rooms with their own air conditioning/heating units and beds. The master bed was very comfortable (we did not try the pullout bed/mattress). You are well above the crowds making their way to/from the beach. However, you get the sounds of the party that is the beach.

We enjoyed all of our interactions with Moises. He was kind, professional, and responsive. We had two instances where we needed his help and he made sure that things were taken care of quickly and correctly. One note, where Moises does speak fluent English, the staff at the apartment complex did not. This is certainly not an issue but non-Portuguese speakers will need to be prepared to communicate in Portuguese whether by Google Translate or other means.

This is a beautiful apartment in the beautiful city of Rio. We would happily stay here again on our next visit.
