  Estuvimos con mi mujer y mi hijo de 3 años 10 días en este apartamento situado sobre la playa de Camboinhas, Niteroi, frente a Rio de Janeiro. El resort es muy seguro con una increíble pileta con horizonte infinito y vista al mar. La pileta tiene una profundidad máxima de 1,40mts, generosas dimensiones y posee areas aptas para niños menores. Desde el balcón terraza del departamento la vista es inigualable: por un lado la playa, el mar y los morros, y por el otro la pileta. Ideal para almorzar y cenar al aire libre. Es de destacar la comodidad de tener a disposición una computadora iMac, impresora, un LED de 50 pulgadas y una Playstation. El resort posee un gimnasio con aparatos y un pequeño salón con juegos para niños. La playa de Camboinhas es muy tranquila, segura y es frecuentada por locales. Hay una hermosa pasarela entre el mar y las casas con una longitud de 1500mts, perfecta para un paseo al atardecer o un poco de running. Inclusive el fin de semana, tanto la pileta como la playa, son muy poco frecuentadas por lo que se pueden disfrutar al 100%. Si desean visitar Rio, hay que tener en cuenta que en automóvil toma aproximadamnete 50 minutos llegar a Copacabana por el tránsito y distancia a recorrer. Para llegar al departamento sí o sí utilicen un GPS ya que es muy compleja la trama de calles a recorrer. Nosotros llegamos a la medianoche, alquilando un auto en el aeropuerto. No es aconsejable ya que hay que atravesar barrios de escasos recursos que podrían llegar a ser peligrosos. De todas formas no tuvimos ningún incidente en todo el viaje, y el barrio donde esta el complejo es muy lindo y seguro.

  Owner response: Cynthia and I are very happy that you love your holiday welcome back any time.... Andre / Cynthia

  This place is breathtaking! It has the best of both worlds in terms of relaxing by the beach and having access to Rio only a relatively short drive away. The beach is fantastic and the infinity pool on the patio is amazing. You can swim in the worm water and till 1030 PM. Clean, beautiful, great lights, amazing view - you are right on the water. There are some great restaurants nearby that we loved too. We already booked the place for 2013 :) thank you an amazing place Sam / Patty

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with teenagers, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, families with young children.

  My wife and I just returned from a beautiful vacation in Niteroi, Brazil Which is just outside of Rio We stayed at this apartment and the location allowed us to have the best of both worlds .... a nice relaxing beach and pool but still close enough to Rio (40 minute taxi ride) so that We Could Also enjoy Ipanema beaches and Copacabano. The apartment is as advertised with a wonderful infinity pool overlooking the beach. You can swim the 11:30 pm late at night ... we'd Encourage you to take a night-time swim to the pool remains warm During the night. Andre who owns the apartment is very helpful. The apartment had clean sheets and towels and was cleaned by a maid once per week. The security at the apartment complex is excellent so you'll feel safe and the reception staff was very helpful. There is underground parking Also if you have a car. We took the taxi driver speaking with an Inglês Which was very helpful. Why stay here in Niteroi? Rio is great but it is so much like New York with lots of concrete buildings and traffic. You really can not get the feeling of the freedom and openness of Brazil unless you are staying at an apartment like this one in Niteroi. The locals use the Niteroi beach behind the apartment and you can actually enjoy a relaxing day at the beach. When you go to Ipanema beaches or Copacabano ambos They are crammed with locals and tourists. Things to do while you are in or near Niteroi Rio: Brazil • Jeep Tour. Visit the statute Jesus Christ, Sugar Loaf and the forest in Rio • River Scenarium. Young crowd but the local tourist show with music and vibrant dancing in Rio • Girl from Ipanema. Brazilian restaurant filled with tourists but has a very festive atmosphere for lunch. • In Rio Vieira Souto. Upscale Italian restaurant in Rio • Paludo Gourmet. Brazilian restaurant in Niteroi. • Contempora Museum (MAC). Museum in Niteroi. It's the building that's unique architecture. • Coahuila. Tex-Mex food with large margaritas for a change in diet while in Brazil. Restaurant in Niteroi. Brazil is a great place for a vacation. Staying at Andre's apartment in Niteroi made our vacation memorable it provided them a comfortable and safe environment for us to explore Rio and Niteroi We spent 11 nights at the apartment and were really sad When We finally had to leave to come back to the cold weather in the New York area.

  My wife and I stayed here for 2 weeks and were happy with our stay. The beach that is out in front of the apartment is very nice with great views of Rio de Janeiro in the distance. We really enjoyed the pool and the saunas as well. The Niteroi Museum nearby was also interesting. We were happy with what we got

  My wife and I stayed here for a week and loved it so much. It’s a great little get away that has everything you need. The beach is unreal and the apartment itself is equipped with everything you’ll need, we especially enjoyed the gym access. Internet access was also a plus for us as we have found in the past that some places don’t provide Internet. We would highly recommend this spot its magical

  I brought my family here and we had a blast. My son loves to surf and with Itucatiara Beach so close by he was in heaven. While my son was surfing we spent most of our days lounging around the stunning pool. This is also a great spot to do some hiking as well. Hope to get back here sometime soon.
