Overview
Experience Exotic Rio!
Our Bed and Breakfast is located in the heart of Santa Teresa, the city's charming historic district. This 1960's mansion was the former residence of the governor of the State of Rio de Janeiro.
Guests enjoy a swimming pool and 1700 square meters of gardens with small monkeys, butterflies, 3 large tortoises, fruit trees and many rare flowers and plants of Brazil.
The street is secure with a watchman on duty throughout the night.
The owners are a musician and a filmmaker who are passionate about Rio and Brazil, and are happy to pass on their local knowledge and travel tips.
Santa Teresa's cultural life, bars, and restaurants are only a few minutes walking (stumbling!) distance away. Five minutes down the hill takes you to Lapa, the home of Samba
and Rio's best bars, nightclubs and music venues set in the picturesque streets of colonial Rio.
The beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana are a short ride away, as is the Cristo Redentor.
We are very well served by local transport and the famous antique cable car of Santa Teresa.
Funky and Comfy Rooms
The three rooms are in a separate part of the house overlooking the swimming pool. Privacy is assured as the guests have their own separate entrance, living room and terrace.
The rooms are tastefully decorated with
an eclectic mix of antique, retro and objects from traditional and modern Brazilian artisans.
Santa Teresa: Bohemian Rio
If you want to escape the usual tourist trappings of the beach areas, Santa Teresa offers the experience of a real Rio neighbourhood and a chance to mix with locals. Wander the tree-lined
cobblestone streets past the colourful colonial houses and you are likely to stumble upon an impromptu musical gig, a poetry performance or locals enjoying a drink in front of one of the many bars and cafes.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
