Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Ilha da Gigóia

We weren’t able to stay at Vera’s airbnb, but even so she has been incredibly sweet and helpful!! She makes you feel at home!

I found my perfect stay! Vera is a lovely person and the place is beautiful and well organized. Breakfast time is very flexible!! The hill is a quiet place and people are very kind, I've met great restaurants right there. I am very grateful for the stay and I intend to come back more often ❤️❤️

The stay was excellent! The ease of access plus the proximity to Lapa made it much easier to get to and from the various points of Rio. I was very well received by the team, who answered any questions I might have. As already mentioned directly with them, it will certainly be where I will stay when I return to Rio!

Bindu is a fantastic host! Every morning she is super helpful about tips on where to go in Rio based on our interests. We lived her 7 days with our two kids (aged 6 and 9) who really loved to swim in the pool and hang out at home when we needed a break from the big city. Extremely delicious breakfast too. It has been amazing to live here!

Place very well located, the staff is super prompt and nice.

I loved the accommodation. Mr. Stanley and his staff are kind and polite! Beautiful and cozy place. I was very well received, my listing was even better than I expected! It is well worth staying there! I will come back for sure!

We stayed at Paulo's place for 5 nights and enjoyed our accommodation. The house is well-decorated, and our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The shared bathroom was always clean. Paulo is an extraordinary host who made every effort to ensure our holiday was a success. He suggested places to visit in Rio and gave us helpful advice. His breakfast and coffee were delicious. We would definitely stay at his place again when returning to Rio.

Peaceful location and a lot of connection with nature, everything perfect and extremely clean. We were made to feel very welcome by the hosts. I'll definitely be back soon!

estía tranquila, cost-benefit optimum, Mr. Alexandre is very helpful

As described in the listing , Knez Lourdes is an extremely helpful and welcoming host. Me and my family felt at home ,we were very well received , I have no words to describe such kindness and reception that we had. The place is very quiet even though it is within a community. We will surely come back more often !!Jesus always bless!!!

Everything was perfect with Steve. The welcome was nice and very friendly. The breakfast very good. Appartement clean and comfortable. Thanks a lot Steve. Mariana & Frank

Fernanda thank you for a wonderful stay and making us feel very welcome! perfect location to enjoy Carnival ☀️

Dacia is an amazing host. She is answering very fast to anything and always ready to help... and Santa Theresa is a beautifull quarter!

I am SO happy my bestie chose this Airbnb. He came last year and loved it so when I told him I wanted to join his annual trip to Rio, he insisted we stay here. Now I understand why. This is the most charming Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. This home is enchanted. I had the best and most restorative sleep here every night. The beds were cozy. The bathroom is stunning. The whole house is full of beautiful local art. There’s attention placed into every detail of the home and the experience itself. Opt for the breakfast. A great way to start the day. There’s a gym nearby where you can get a cheap weekly pass. 20 min Uber to the beach ($3 or $4 USD). Walking distance from the entrance to Christ the Redeemer if that’s your thing. Such an amazing host and beautiful spirit. I asked for thread to sew something and she did it for me. Genuinely, she’s SO kind! She also sent out our laundry as an add on. I hope to visit again someday soon. Magical place! Thank you thank you thank you!

Quiet beach, safe neighborhood, the region lacks a bit of an option. Excellent hosting, room with a wonderful view, very cozy beds, we got everything very clean. We use the common area with barbecue and feel at home. The only downside is lack of parking and difficult access, which is the difficulty of all the bed and breakfasts in the area.

I stayed at CasaJomo Art at the very end of my time in Rio, and I genuinely wish I had found it sooner! The neighborhood had a charming, small-community feel, free from the usual tourist crowds, which made it even more special. The property itself was perfect—beautifully maintained, with spacious and private rooms. Breakfast was a highlight, with fresh fruit and delicious offerings each morning. But what truly sets this place apart is the incredible family who runs it. Their hospitality is unmatched; they welcomed me with open arms, making me feel safe, cared for, and completely at home. It was clear they simply wanted me to have the best experience possible, and they went above and beyond to make that happen. Would absolutely stay here again!

We went as a couple and found that Urca is a great place to live in/stay in Rio, a quiet neighborhood and reasonably close to everything (within what is possible in a city the size of Rio de Janeiro). The apartment is also great, spacious, comfortable, complete, in a beautiful house, super well decorated and with a great vibe. The only negative point was the bathroom box, which dropped water out of the bath space. If they solve this box issue, the apartment is perfect. Service was also great, polite and attentive, and we had a specific demand that the Host was very proactive to help us. We would definitely get back to staying.

Bruno was an absolutely lovely host! :) I 100% recommend this place.
