Apartment in Copa, 6th floor, sea view
Very pleasant stay, the apartment is as described in the listing. The location is great and has 24-hour concierge. Carlos Alberto was 5 stars. I hope to be able to come back soon

Lux Atlantica apt. in front of Copacabana Beach 9th floor
Great place in a perfect location to take in the ambiance of Copacabana. Morning and night there is always something to see from the balcony. We felt safe and secure at all times. The kitchen pretty much had everything we needed so we could cook a meal at home. The bed was comfortable and the room quiet so we enjoyed a good sleep. Definitely recommend.

Beach Design - New! 90m beach. Remote work space
Great apartment, super clean and perfect location, with markets, restaurants, pharmacies a few meters walk and two blocks from the beach. It served us perfectly!

Mar Aberto-Sea Front-Queen bed-Split Air
Amazing place to stay while in Rio de Janeiro. Maria was amazing at responding to her messages in a polite and timely manner. It’s located right across the street from the beach with several restaurants and vendors seconds away after walking out of the apartment complex. The view from the room was incredible. The room was clean and comfortable to stay in for a few days. Thank you

Luxuoso Frente Mar -Sauna - Piscina Rooftop - Gym
The place looked just like the pictures—modern, clean, and well-kept. Heron was very responsive once we checked in, which we appreciated. Communication before check-in was a bit limited, but overall a great stay!

Apartment with balcony and sea view
Very nice flat - welll situated with an ocean view on coppa cabana beach. 100m from the beach. lots of activity there. Flat looks better in real than on photos ! Pleasant suprise. Marcio and his team were super reactive and flexible and helped a lot. Thanks.

Cozy penthouse with nice views
If you are coming to Rio, you should definitely stay at Magnu’s place! It’s a very luxury and beautiful penthouse! The host was very responsive and attentive to everything we needed!

Comfortable home, with a wonderful and safe view
Elite place for a vacation in Brazil

The Dream House in Piratininga
The house is delicious!! Super cozy and comfortable. It's a complete house! Wonderful bed and bath linens, pool towels were also available. Kitchen complete with utensils and dishes/cups/glasses of all kinds, full tbm barbecue area! There is no shortage of activities for children! Pool buoys, foosball, ping pong, pool, beach tennis rackets and the soccer field! Everything works perfectly. Apart from the pernilongos, we have nothing to complain about. Victor was an excellent host responding to everything quickly. Tbm we were appointed to Thainara to help with cleaning the house on the days we stayed there and it was a great indication. We'll be back!

House with ocean views and close to the beaches.
What a divine accommodation!!! Easily accessible, quiet, the view is exactly as shown in the photos, the room is exactly as shown in the photos, comfortable and cozy! Mrs. Marli was a sweet person from start to finish and extremely attentive, decisive, and as I told her, I already arrived wanting to come back. And I'll definitely be back!

Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish, always attentive and helpful. The location was also perfect, with easy access to everything we needed. We will definitely be back and recommend it without so much as a second thought!”

Casa Amora - Your Private "Mini Resort" on the Lagoon Edge
Good price, great hosts. This was my 4th trip to Brasil, this is the safest place i have stayed. Very small monkeys come right up to the villa

VIDIGAL CASA BRISA - RJ
I loved my stay, it was an amazing weekend and I can't wait to return. The house is exactly as shown in the photos, the view is even better! Shops next to the house, cafeterias, I particularly ordered from ifood, which also delivers. My communication with Maria Fernanda was great, she responded quickly and I had no problems!

Tropical Escape with Swimming pool next to Leblon
Our 8-day stay at this location in Rio was absolutely amazing. The host organized an airport pick -up for my team and I and was there to greet us. The host gave us a tour of the home and left fresh fruit for us to enjoy. The home is in a great location with stunning views of the beach and is not too far from Copa and other attractions (20-30 minute uber drive). The home itself is well-maintained and was very comfortable for a group of 4. I’d highly recommend this home.

Incredible House w/ Pool and Breathtaking Views
My friend’ commented is great is place and feel free a home plus ocean views. Definitely coming back again someday

Beachfront apartment in the best location in Barra
My stay was wonderful, too bad it was short. The location is perfect. The view is amazing and the apartment is super cozy and spacious. I felt at home! In addition, the condominium is super friendly, with clear information and good communication between employees. The apartment is exactly as shown in the pictures and larger than expected. It is very close to Olegario, which has exactly the best bars, restaurants and everything you need such as: market, bakery, gym… I really liked it and didn't even want to leave kkk I will definitely be back. I thank Ana for all the information and availability.

Copacabana beach apartment SOUZA LIMA WiFi
I really enjoyed my stay! The location is very good, close to the beach and with an excellent restaurant next door. The host is extremely polite, committed and always available to help with anything. I recommend it!

Apartment on Copacabana beach block
It is my 3rd time in Rio so the area knew it, in this case the access was with facial verification to the building and I had surveillance 24 hours., the view of the beach by the spectacular window, we loved everything about this airbnb.. there the building in general should improve some small things but Mariel would also come back and helped us in what we needed.

Beautiful Penthouse with a View of Sugarloaf Mountain / Urca
I recommend it! It was great! The view is too beautiful

Excellent apartment on Barra da Tijuca beach.
Alexandre is simply the perfect host, always helpful before, during and even after check-outs. The apartment itself was perfect. Everything was perfect, from cleaning to check-in and check-out. It's pretty much down to the beach so the location couldn't be better. I enjoyed my little 14 days there and will most likely come back

Experience Ipanema 1
FANTASTIC place to stay. Large and accommodating. Brilliant amenities and helpful staff. Really appreciated the welcoming reception and lobby area.
