Do not book this property unless you want to stay in a favela.
Nothing it’s at the top of a favela. As a UK citizen do not book this property as it isn’t safe. We arrived and the uber wouldn’t take us up to the property so we had to walk the rest of the way up a very steep hill. Myself and my partner felt extremely unsafe. The location is disgustingly filthy. We felt so scared we didn’t even enter the apartment. If you are from the UK and you stay here you are going against government advice. I spoke to a local person who lived in a favela and she confirmed that you should not enter without a guide. The owner will tell you it’s safe, well I can confirm that it isn’t. I have asked for a full refund and I will take this further.
I didn’t like anything about it. It’s in a favela.

Una estancia marcada por la inseguridad y la falta de empatía.
El apartamento es bonito, moderno y está bien mantenido. Se nota que han realizado mejoras y reparaciones para conservarlo en buenas condiciones. La vista desde las habitaciones hacia la playa es preciosa, especialmente por la noche, cuando el paisaje se vuelve realmente espectacular.
Lamentablemente, nuestra experiencia estuvo muy lejos de ser satisfactoria. Antes de llegar habíamos leído numerosos comentarios sobre la inseguridad de la zona, incluyendo reportes de asaltos y presencia de personas armadas en los alrededores. Una vez allí, pudimos comprobar que nuestras preocupaciones no eran infundadas. Como turistas extranjeros, la sensación de inseguridad fue constante y bastante intimidante.
A esto se sumó un problema importante de accesibilidad: para llegar al apartamento hay que subir una cuesta muy pronunciada y numerosas escaleras, algo especialmente complicado para uno de los integrantes de nuestro grupo, que tenía dificultades para realizar ese esfuerzo.
Ante esta situación, contacté con Booking para solicitar la cancelación. Me informaron de que únicamente el anfitrión podía autorizarla. Me puse entonces en contacto con el anfitrión, explicándole las circunstancias y mostrando mi disposición incluso a asumir una penalización razonable, siempre que existiera cierta flexibilidad y se pudiera recuperar al menos una parte del dinero. Desgraciadamente, no encontramos ninguna empatía ni voluntad de llegar a un acuerdo.
Otro problema importante fue el transporte. Conseguir un Uber que aceptara llevarnos hasta el apartamento resultó prácticamente imposible. El acceso es muy complicado, especialmente con maletas o bolsas de compras. En la práctica, la alternativa más viable parecía ser subir en moto, algo poco práctico cuando se viaja con equipaje.
Además, el entorno inmediato del apartamento no estaba en buenas condiciones: encontramos suciedad y malos olores en los alrededores, lo que empeoró todavía más la experiencia.
Debido a todas estas dificultades, decidimos permanecer únicamente una noche en el alojamiento. Finalmente, optamos por buscar y alquilar otro apartamento en una zona diferente, lo que supuso un gasto adicional para nosotros.

L’hôte était très sympathique, la qualité de l’appartement était très bien, des matelas de bonne manufactures.
Endroit mal placé en haut d’une favélas, la journée aucun problème pour se deplacer, le soir en rentrant de soirée nous avons rencontré des dizaines de personnes armées. Une sensation d’insécurité

Apartamento maravilhoso! Vista maravilhosa!
Tudo limpo e muito confortável !

A acomodação fica em uma comunidade próximo a Ipanema, Uber à noite não tem, tivemos que descer andando até achar um mototáxi, mas no geral vale muito a pena pois o apto é maravilhoso
