Staying at this resort felt like a true getaway. The private beach access is a game-changer—just step outside and you're right on the sand with stunning ocean views. It's well-located, just a short ride from downtown Rio, making it easy to explore the city while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The amenities are impressive: multiple pools (indoor and outdoor), tennis courts, and a dedicated kids’ play area that kept my children entertained all day. Despite being a luxury hotel, the price feels very reasonable—excellent value for money. The only minor downside? The sound of waves can be a bit loud if you're sensitive to noise, so I’d recommend requesting a room farther from the beach side or on a higher floor. Overall, an outstanding experience—comfortable, well-maintained, and perfect for families or couples looking for relaxation with great convenience.
The rooftop view overlooking Ipanema Beach is absolutely breathtaking! Yes, the pool is quite small—perfect for a quick dip or letting kids splash around—but honestly, that view alone makes it worth it. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from everything, and the vibe of the place is so relaxed and welcoming. It’s not about luxury amenities; it’s about that unforgettable panorama and the authentic Rio experience. A must-stay if you want to feel like you’re right in the heart of the city’s energy.
Staying at Ipanema Inn was a great experience overall, especially given its prime location just across the street from Ipanema Beach—walking to the sand is effortless. The free beach towels and chairs are a nice touch, making beach days even more convenient. The on-site restaurant delivers solid food quality with a welcoming vibe. While the room is compact, it’s clean and well-maintained. That said, the street noise can be intense, especially with ongoing construction nearby—something to consider if you’re sensitive to sound. The air conditioning drips water, and the shower setup isn’t the most user-friendly. The bed was also quite firm, which might not suit everyone. However, the highlight of our stay was the rooftop spa at their sister property in Arpoador. We had an incredible massage there—relaxing, professional, and worth every minute. Despite a few minor drawbacks, we enjoyed our three-night stay and would definitely return for the location and the exceptional spa experience.
Staying at Hotel Vermont Ipanema was an absolute delight. Located just a short walk from two metro stops in the heart of Ipanema, it’s only a 5-minute stroll to the beach—perfect for morning swims and sunset views. The neighborhood is quiet, well-lit, and feels safe even at night. My room was cozy and comfortable, with everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The breakfast was outstanding—fresh gluten-free bread, a delicious pastry, plus eggs, cheese, ham, yogurt, juices, and coffee. It felt like a little treat every morning. This hotel offers incredible value and a welcoming vibe. I’ll definitely be back.
Staying at El Misti Hostel Ipanema was an absolute highlight of my trip to Rio de Janeiro!

The hostel itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The staff went out of their way to help with recommendations and check-in was smooth and quick. My room was cozy, the bedding was comfortable, and the free Wi-Fi worked perfectly. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed for travelers who want a relaxed, authentic experience without breaking the bank. It’s rare to find such a high-quality stay at this price point. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rio—I’ll definitely be coming back!
Unfortunately, my experience was quite negative due to the lack of signage and lighting in the backyard, making the area extremely unsafe for elderly guests and children. I didn’t stay overnight—I only booked a day-use option through the platform for my birthday celebration and that of a close friend. As shown in photo 20, there’s a gap beside the staircase leading down to the yard, which becomes completely invisible at night because there’s no lighting in the area. While descending the stairs, I tripped over the gap and hit my head on a stone, resulting in six stitches above my eyebrow. To clarify—no alcohol was consumed during this incident. This could have easily turned into a much more serious accident. I reported the issue to the couple managing the booking, but they showed no intention to address or fix the hazard. Aside from that, there’s nothing else to comment on since I didn’t actually stay overnight. My only warning to future guests: this property is not recommended for families with young children or older adults due to the significant safety risks.
Staying at MC Flats Ipanema Beach Star was an absolute delight. The apartment is spacious and perfectly located in the heart of Ipanema—just a short walk to the beach, with a vibrant mix of restaurants, cafes, and local shops right outside the door. I loved how close it was to supermarkets, making grocery runs super convenient. The daily housekeeping service kept everything spotless throughout my stay, and the kitchen had all the essentials I needed for simple meals. Clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped—it felt like home. If you're looking for comfort, convenience, and a great location in Rio, this place is a top choice.
Staying at Ibis Rio Porto Atlantico was a fantastic choice, especially given its close proximity to GIG Rio de Janeiro International Airport. Located in a well-planned new district, the area boasts wide, clean streets and a notably safer atmosphere compared to other parts of the city. Public transport is convenient—taking trams 1 and 4 to connect with the metro makes it easy to reach major tourist attractions without hassle. What really stood out was that room rates didn’t increase during Carnival season, which is incredibly fair and refreshing. The only minor downside is the lack of nearby restaurants—there’s just one large supermarket within walking distance, so dining options require a short trip. Still, the excellent location, reliable transport links, and great value make this hotel a top recommendation for travelers who prioritize convenience and peace of mind.
We stayed at Gallant Hotel with a group of five, and it was an excellent choice for our trip to Rio. While not located in the South Zone, the hotel's location is surprisingly convenient—just a short walk from the metro station and close to major tourist attractions. The area is quiet and peaceful, making it a great base for exploring the city. The staff were attentive, friendly, and always ready to help. Breakfast was diverse, delicious, and generously served—perfect way to start the day. Overall, we were thoroughly impressed by the comfort, service, and value. I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Rio, and I’m already planning to stay here again on our next visit.
