Waterfront vacation rentals in Ilha da Gigóia

Rémy is a great host and he goes out of his way to make you feel at home. I have stayed here a few times and I will be back again soon.

Carlos was a lovely host. He was immediately responsive whenever we messaged him. He was very gracious when it came to offering taking care of our luggage before check-in and after check-out for those of us arriving early/leaving late. We stayed during Carnaval season and had a group of 8. We were very comfortable and felt very safe in Copacabana! 100% I would recommend Carlos and his AirBnB to anyone visiting Rio. Thank you so much for having us!

Spend a month in this beautiful place! Very grateful, and everything as explained and specified. Very fluid communication with the owners of the apartment, very friendly employees of the place. The only thing I can highlight to improve is the air conditioning, since there are only in the rooms and the living room and kitchen sometimes it gets too hot. Saving that.. Everything's excellent! Very friendly and friendly ❤️

Good secure apartment, very nice view from the window, and excellent communication.

Honestly, there is absolutely no complaints whatsoever about this property and the overall experience at this location, from the start of the trip until the end. Luiz provided an impeccable level of service. He was at the property to greet us with a warm welcome and showed us the property to it's entirety. Luiz was a phenomenal host. Very personable and easy to reach and super accommodating. The Let's talk about the property itself: The best beach view you will get. The apartment was really welcoming and stylish, with plenty of natural plants throughout the unit, which made the air very light. We had access to all the amenities (pool, hot tub, sauna, convenient store downstairs etc). The location was superb! A good balance between relaxed and fun, without the very busy, overwhelming environment as Copacabana. Great for family and traveling alone. Barra Tijuca is just a great area in general, with lots of restaurants on the strip. Truly a five star experience!

Nice stay in the humble apartment.

Wonderful days in the most beautiful view I've ever had in an apartment. Very beautiful, very nice apartment too, close to everything, we did most things on foot, well worth it.

The apartment is in an excellent location, in front of the Palace Copacabana hotel, a very touristy area with a lot of commerce. We rented a car and there was quite a lot of parking nearby.

The stay was great! It was what we needed to relax. Both Hérima and Leandro were great with the reception and care. We gave excellent tips on what to do, where to eat and buy groceries. We felt comfortable and safe in the house. The house is always fresh and with plenty of air circulation. We went with a dog that also loved the environment. The deck with the barbecue is a wonderful place to spend the afternoon resting. For those looking for a retreat to rest, but still having the convenience of groceries, pharmacies and beach nearby, this is the place.

We stay 12 days in this paradise, the place is simply amazing the super ventilated room with a huge glass window,provides a breathtaking view of the super famous local Marambaia restinga that was once the scene of several soap operas and frequented pain several presidents of the republic,The gentle breeze,next to the stunning scenery, makes you feel in a true paradise,the kitchen is complete with all the necessary household utensils, potent refrigerator,ideal for those who like to prepare their own meals,the bathroom with electric shower is extremely clean,there are three different points in the house to enjoy the view,room,room and yard! Maria is a sensational person always concerned with our good is, always proactive and with excellent communication,if we feel at home what made all the difference in our experience,the place is the basis of the main trails such as the telegraph, wild beaches.

10/10 would recommend Marli & Anna’s place. Anna waited for me to show up even though i did not ask her to. She helped me with my bags to the room. Great place to stay if you want to experience the favela. People are very nice and welcoming. You also can’t beat the sunset and sunrise every day with that beautiful view. I will be booking again when i come back to Rio. Thank you again for an amazing experience!

What a cool little spit Bianca and Leo were so helpful any question I had they answered quickly and their recommendations were everything. Cool spot on the islands was definitely an experience taking a boat in and out.

Great place to rest and enjoy with family and friends. It does not appear to be in Rio de Janeiro. Wooded site with a super pleasant view. Guaranteed Leisure. It's worth it. We want to get back as soon as possible. Have no doubt in renting. Super clean rooms with smelling and new bedding.

Estadia was otima , Aba and Bianca that are part of the team are great. Come back for sure

I absolutely loved my stay at Jeanne’s place! She greeted me very warmly upon arrival and was extremely friendly. The place is absolutely gorgeous, it’s magical waking up to the views of the beach and surroundings every morning. If you wake up early enough, you get to have the best views of beautiful suns rise with a clear gradient of colour on the horizon. Jeanne was kind enough to provide all necessary recommendations and more. For those into fitness, you can walk down the ramp and go for an ocean-side run in morning all the way to Ipanema beach where they have outdoor calisthenics equipment right by the beach. The beach next to the place (Praia do Vidigal - in front of the Sheraton Hotel) is very peaceful limited crowds and a beautiful scenery. Overall, Jeanne was a wonderful host and made me feel right at home. No better place to stay at to kick off your Rio adventures. Can’t wait to return to this place!

Peace total, wonderful days and the super attentive Flávia cleaning the pool every day!! Thank you for your affection.

I stayed with three friends at Julie’s apartment during the New Year’s period. The house is very spacious and in an excellent location, being very close to Ipanema Beach and in an area that, despite the busy New Year’s festivities, always made me feel safe and free to move around. The apartment is on the top floor of the building, so there is no noise at all, and the terrace offers a breathtaking view—truly priceless. Julie was an amazing host; from the very beginning, she helped me make the most of my experience in Rio by suggesting places to visit and sharing her contacts to ensure I could fully enjoy the city. I hope to find this apartment available again when I return to Rio de Janeiro. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to have an incredible experience.

I would highly recommend staying here. My family and I have high standards and we were met with a warm welcome, the house was exactly as pictured. If we ever had a question Gabrielle made sure we had an answer and was always helpful. The attendants in the building are very welcoming as we became friends with some of them. This place is in a great location and if being active is something your looking for in a central area without the hotel vibe but being around them meeting people from all around it’s for you and/or your family between my morning walks with my son before my husband and other child met us we always felt safe, met other familiar face in the morning time and in the evening have met some wonderful people around in the restaurants with friendly service wonderful Food definitely coming back We as a Family have a deeper love for Brazil and can’t wait to return. Thank you Gabrielle and his mother for being a wonderful host!

Apartment was beautiful, well kept, with a beautiful view. Front desk was very helpful and always attentive. The host made us feel easy and at home. Would definitely stay over again in the future.

Ligia was amazing! She was very helpful and guided us as we needed. She is a good host and her place is near the beach, bars, restaurants , grocery store and more. Great experience! She is a positive person and try her best to make guest happy. We will be back!

Great place to enjoy. A quiet neighborhood and the condominium very safe and very good service. Tatiana was always attentive and Don José Luiz was very friendly. Thanks for having us!

Amazing experience! Great location, very complete and well organized space, with the breathtaking view! Very attentive and receptive Silvia and Galvão, we are sure to come back more often!

Marilia's apartment is truly amazing, located in a privileged area with easy access to restaurants, markets and bakeries. Every detail overflowed a special touch of Marilia, noticeable since our arrival. From the cleaning the coffee table already set, a gesture full of affection that delighted us! Being in Rio de Janeiro and feeling at home, safely and comfortably, was an indescribable experience. No doubt, we plan to host again when we return. Also, I can't help but compliment Marilia's singular kindness. His service was exceptional, since the creation of a wonderful itinerary of restaurants, shops and sights, which made our trip even more special.

We spent a few days dreaming at Carlos's house! Beautiful place in front of the sea, great location! The super equipped, super clean and modern apartment… if you have a child do not hesitate to choose it! They left us a cot, eating chair and toys! Highly recommended! I would definitely go back!
