Location: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, South America (1/2 Hour by Taxi - Int'l Apt; 2 Blocks to Copacabana Palace) View Map
Accommodations: Condominium, Studio, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
This Luxury Suite sits amongst the energy and nightlife of the city, yet when you retire for the night, it's quiet, relaxing and very tranquil. How can you relax if you can't get a good nights sleep? So, the bedding will pamper you with 600 thread-count sheets and thick Goose Down comforter, while the Goose Down Featherbed will be like sleeping on a cloud for a very comfortable nights sleep. If you have allergies to feathers, your bedding can be switched using Memory Foam instead! The Suite can be setup with either a Queen-Sized bed or to a two single-bed sleeping configuration (just let us know in advance).
You will be situated just steps from the warm sands of Copacabana Beach and only 2 blocks from the famous Copacabana Palace. Celebrities from all over the world stay year round in this classic, period Hotel; walk by, you just may see someone you know (or at least their fans).
A fully-equipped kitchen for anyone who loves to cook or just wants to throw something into the microwave and be done with it. It's all there; imported italian marble countertops, glass cooktop, large stainless microwave, automatic coffee maker/Nespresso espresso machine (your choice), electronic water filtration system, toaster, blender, refrigerator,...wine glasses, beer glasses, even 4-legged trays to have breakfast in bed! Sip Mimosas listening to Bossa Nova music on the Bose Wave stereo system.
For those who want stay in touch with the world, there is a 100+ channel digital cable system with CNN International connected to an adjustable 32" High-Definition LCD TV and, on request, your choice of a high-definition Blu-Ray player(Region 1) or a regionless standard definition DVD player. If you would like to catch up on some work, bring your laptop and use the computer workstation complete with wireless/wired hi-speed internet access and wireless scanning and printing! All the power is 110v using universal 3-prong outlets; there is even a 220v outlet near the workstation if needed.
For the romantic at heart, there are candles throughout and all lighting is on dimmers so you can create thousands of romantic moods...and then swing open the doors of the large window to view the private gardens of the property.
The 3 most difficult things to find in a vacation rental in Rio are good location (close to the beach and action, yet safe); chic, modern decor & silence at night. I hope I've been able to accomplish all 3 for you.

Why the Owner Chose Rio de Janeiro
Rio is a great city. If it's your first time, you'll be back (or you just won't leave!). You'll probably start checking your calendar when you can come back while you're still here. I did. I wanted to buy a place near Copacabana beach and create a place that would give guests the comforts of home while away. So many times I would travel the world, staying in vacation rentals, and always would ask "What were they thinking?"...so I tried my best to keep you from asking that question or, at least, have an answer why.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
People tell me it's the first time they've been able to get a good nights sleep while on vacation! That says it all!
Copacabana Palace, Rio de Janeiro Located right on Rio's Copacabana beach, the Copacabana Palace Hotel is the most renowned hotel in Rio de Janeiro and has welcomed the rich and famous since 1923.
The Sugar Loaf is one of Rio's most famous landmarks and it is, in fact, a complex that includes two hills reached by cable cars which have been inaugurated in 1912 ( the old open-air cable car ... )
This "active" military fort is home to the famous military museum and houses Cafe Colombo with outdoor seating under umbrellas looking back at Copacabana Beach for a breathtaking view!
Owner's Map of Rio de Janeiro
In 2002, my friends asked "Where do we go this year?" and one said "How about Rio?"...and we were on a plane weeks later. I had a feeling I wouldn't come back. I don't know why, just did. 6 months later I had sold everything (well almost) and moved to Rio. I've been here ever since!
