Property Description

You can spend a week or more like a real "Carioca" in a charming flat in the very heart of Ipanema, 2 blocks from the famous Ipanema beach and 1 block from the bar Garota de Ipanema, from where Jobim first saw "The girl from Ipanema" on her way to the sea. You can also reach Copacabana beach in a 2-minute drive or a 10-minute walk. And if you really like the sea, you can plan a short visit to Buzios (small fishing city discovered in the sixties by Brigitte Bardot) or the Angra dos Reis region with 365 islands, which can be reached in rental fisherman boats. Both cities can be reached in less than 2 hours by car, and you can carry only a small handbag, because you will need no more than a bathing suit, a couple of shorts and t-shirts, a toothbrush, and a camera, of course.

When in Rio, you will be in the very heart of the Ipanema shopping and restaurant area, near food markets where you can buy all kinds of tropical fruits for your breakfast.
