This apartment was ideally situated with great access to restaurants, the beach, and shopping...Neil's staff was fantastic and anything we needed he or his staff made sure we got it...even costumes for Carnival on short notice!!! What an experience that was....thanks again Neil for sourcing them....
Rita's cooking was amazing and she took care of us as if we were her own (plenty of food)....I am looking forward to returning for Carnival 2009....
See you next year Neil and thanks for hosting us in 2008...Zane, London

There isn't any other place to stay while in Rio! Aside from the accomodations, Neil is a fantastic host that goes way out of his way to insure his guest are well taken care of - and we were!
Two friends and I rented the entire flat for Carnival 2009. The accomodations were more than adequate and very well kept up by Neil's very capable staff. We were attended to by Rita, an excellent cook with great interpersonal skills. Rita took care of us as if we were her own - laundry cleaning, cooking, etc. It was First Class!
The location can't be beat everything you could possibly need or want is within walking distance - gym, restaurant, shopping, beach, bars and clubs!
Needless to say we are returning for Carnival 2010 and everyone theeafter! See you in February Neil! |

| A group of 6 of us stayed in this apartment in March - it was perfect! Neil went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable the whole time. It's in a great location in Ipanema, close to everything that's going on but still quiet. This apartment made our whole experience in Rio that much better. Definitely recommend staying here. |

| A group of 6 of us went to Rio in February. Neil went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our time in Rio. The apartment is in a good location in Ipanema and the accommodations were everything that we expected. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone traveling to Rio. |

| Five of us stayed here and we loved it! Niel took great pains to make sure our trip went smoothly and we'd definitely stay there again. Also, it was a really good location in Ipanema! |

| We have stayed in the apartment for a short holiday and I highly recommend it!!!! The apartment is fully equipped (even with sound system in all rooms and baths!!) Perfectly located, very sure (security 24h)beautifully furnished and the attention you will have from Neil is just perfect. If I return to Rio (that I surely will!!!!) I will without doubt stay in the same apartment. Do not look further ..... that's the plce to stay!!! |

| Several friends and I decided to spend a week in Rio last April. We wanted to stay in the trendy (and safe) Ipanema beach area, and wanted a more genuine Rio experience than a hotel could offer. We were fortunate enough to find this contemporary apartment listed on the web and quickly made a reservation. We found the apartment to be very clean and modern, located in a vibrant and safe neighborhood, and the owner (Neil) was very helpful and friendly. He even took time to show us around the neighborhood and give us some pointers. I travel all over the world for work and fun, and can honestly say this one of my favorite accommodations to date. Highly recommended! |

I have been to Rio more than ten times and stayed at different apartments. After staying at this apartment, I will not stay anywhere else. It is located in a safe and great part of Ipanema(restaurants, banks, stores, etc.) and the beach is just a 3 minute walk away. Most apartments they charge you a lot of money but you feel like you are staying in your Grandma's house since nothing has been updated. Everything in the apartment is state of the art. You will be hard pressed to find something better in this location, with all of the amenities, and the awesome customer serive of Neil who treats everyone like his own family. This is the best place to stay in Rio!!

| Folks, this place is amazing! A jewel in the heart of Ipanema...this apartment is fully modern, stylishly decorated and perfect for groups of friends or families wanting a relaxing place to stay within walking distance to all of the beaches (Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon) in Rio. Plus, there are lots of restaurants and excellent local nightlife in the Ipanema neighbourhood, which makes living in this neighbourhood even more exciting! |
