8 Bedroom Villa in Copacabana, rio de Janeiro

10 REASONS TO CHOOSE THIS PROPERTY
START BY READING THE REVIEWS - BEST WAY TO LEARN WHY WE STAND OUT.
1. HOMEAWAY HIGHEST RATING IN RIO DE JANEIRO - Their only premium Partner The most reviewed for years all FIVE STAR
2. PERFECT FOR 2 People or 22 - we have the Cottage, the Villa, or rent both together
3. COMPLETE SERVICE - Housekeeping, Chef, Concierge DAILY
4. SECURITY - Private GATED street of 14 owners villas.
This is an unusual mansion in that it is occupied by the owner and rented only when his family is not there. He happens to be a Michigan State University Hotel School Grad . The compound of buildings tends to be run like a great hotel would be. You can be left alone and cook for yourself or use as you would a five star hotel - YOUR CHOICE
5. LOCATION - The exact center of Copacabana - 100 feet from subway -5 minutes from beach -5 minutes Copcabana Palace Hotel. When sun goes down the beach is empty but our four corners pulse with energy
6. 5 STAR HOTEL AMENITIES - we give 7 DAYS A WEEK full time housekeeping and can provide optional great cooking from our staff - our Head Housekeeper lives across the street and has for 40 years. If you need a 6am coffee service or a midnight tidy up - its easy for us .We have a complete catering menu, full list of tours and events, favorite restaurant picks, and full time concierge. Or you can cook for yourself - we have a chefs kitchen - ideal for you. We have bikes, drivers, and everything you need to make a party. At home beauty and spa service Manicure, Pedicure, beautician, and massage available. The SPA at the Copacabana Palace Hotel has full range of services. Our local gym is one block away.
7. SWANK TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIOR DESIGN YET TOTALLY UP TO DATE New skylight roof just installed September 2019.
It may look like an old mansion but the villa was built and finished in 2007. The cottage is one of the original Copacabana granite miners houses. At the foot of our mews is the cliff and mountains of the long closed granite mines.
The newest addition to the villa is the 4 room - two floor - POOL HOUSE which was just finished July 20 2019. It is next to the two floor BALI SUITE. Gardens are always being totally redone and dozens of new orchids, vines, and now 5 new Jaboticaba trees planted - so you can pick your fresh Brazilian fruit daily.
8. WE ARE PICKY ABOUT DETAILS. ALWAYS REDECORATING, REFURBISHING, AND MAINTAINING. ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW. Check our instagram
We love a great party and have samba dancers, musicians,a resident bartender and because of the large size of the mansion your party can rock til wee hours - and neighbors not disturbed. Being great neighbors is VIP for us. State of the art air conditioning, smart energy. Incredible wifi - extensive cable service - and poolside television for night time movies and sports. GOOGLE devices in all bedrooms.
9. FOOD SERVICE - Not much point in renting a big space if there is no local restaurant for breakfast or you have to go out for a great dinner when after a beach or tour day you would rather be at home. You can work with our cook to have a inexpensive over the top experience in our dining rooms. Ask to see a PDF file of photos from some of our dinners. We buy local from our farmers market and the fishermans quarter. In addition we can help you choose the restaurants in RIo we consider GREAT without breaking your family budget. Guests seem to love it when we take them shopping. BUT FOR SURE - we know how to leave you alone when you want total privacy and only a daily cleaning.
10. WE CAN RISE TO THE OCCASION> There have been many weddings, corporate meetings, and reunions. We housed the grad business school of University of San Diego, the Tolstoy family reunion from Russia, a huge childrens group from a Texas church for the pope's visit, groups of visiting young athletes and performers. We have seen it all. After you reserve - we can forward you full PDF of our menu, our tour and event offerings and a couple of new music videos which were filmed at the villa this spring. The videos really showcase the magic and incredible lighting of the villa. search youtube for - E DELA QUE EU GOSTO to see much of the villa interiors..

Summary: Property was great and in an amazing location to everything. The last afternoon of our stay the water to the property was disconnected. With mainly all ladies in our party; this was unrealistic. No refund was offered for the inconvenience. Refund should have been offered.

Summary: First of all this is a very unique and beautiful property. Located down a gated side street the house is off the road enough to be quiet yet a 5 minute walk from all the activities of the beaches! Stores and shops are close for stocking up for your stay. Our group of 8 (with family and friends coming and going) had ample room. Ages ranged from 5 to 45. The kitchen had all the utensils one would need to seat a party of 12 or more. The rooftop pool was clean and sweet for a dip. Lounge chairs were tidy and There were music speakers throughout with ample TVs for entertaining. Each bedroom had working air conditioning and comfortable beds. The kids preferred the “fun” rooms which had bunk/loft beds and were on the upper floors. Management was quick to respond and reactive to our questions and needs before and during our stay. There were daily House cleaners that were so friendly and polite. My only concern for anyone traveling with families is that the house is beautifully decorated, with some breakable items low enough to cause concern for any “handsy” toddler. This is not an issue with our 5 year old; however, if your kids like to be touchy you may need to keep this in mind. It is not a negative statement, it is just a parents perspective. When we return to Rio for our next family gathering, we will be staying here again. It really was an ideal fit for us. I highly recommend it for both family and mid size work groups. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home!

Summary: The villa in Copacabana is a special property, updated with a lot of really interesting touches and located in a quiet corner of a bustling city. Luiz and Lara and others on the staff were responsive and very helpful. Would definitely come back!

Summary: No matter if it's your first visit to Rio, or if you are a seasoned veteran like myself...The Villa in Copacabana is the best place to stay for the full experience of Rio. It's located within walking distance of fresh food markets, retail shopping malls, the best restaurants and Copacabana Beach. Yet, it's located in a safe and secure local area so you get to mingle with those that have lived their for years to get the full experience of Rio. The home, the staff and the owner are all exceptional assets to ensure your stay in Rio exceeds all expectations. The Home: A well built structure that offers a livingroom, kitchen, dining room, bathroom and library on the 1st floor. This level makes for great gathering space for its guests and their visitors. It also has a glass ceiling that allows in natural light to complete the experience. The remaining floors have some of the best bedrooms that one can expect, complete with a pool on the top level. The Staff: An exceptional group of people that treated us as family. They provided insight on places to visit, eat and answers to our endless questions about Rio and its history. Thiago assisted with the best tour packeges to meet our needs. Mama Tereza showed us how to dance like the natives. She is also the best cook in the country (I miss that daily breakfast of fruits, pastries, meats and eggs made to order). Dilson made sure the house was always taken care of and ready to suit our every need. Laura and Pamela also ensured that we were well fed and the house was always cleaned. The Owner: Mike is very insightful and accomodating. Although I thought I knew the best that Rio had to offer to ensure my family, friends and I had an awesome experience... Mike opened my eyes to possibilities for the group that truly enhanced our stay. All in All, this was the best experience for my 50th Birthday, my God Sister's 40th Birthday, my Frat brother's 35th birthday and my Brother's 30th birthday. All are more than happy we chose to celebrate our special day at The Villa in Copacabana!!!

Summary: We had an absolutely amazing time in Rio and by far our favorite thing was the Villa. This house is beautiful, eclectic and very well decorated. It is kept extremely clean and feels like you are at your home away from home. Tereza is the sweetest lady you will ever meet, and she is an amazing cook. Thiago was always available for anything we needed. We would definitely come back. Overall fantastic experience!

Summary: Mike, Teresa, Pamela, and Tiago where simply outstanding. First this is not you typical Vrbo, it is like staying in a full service luxury hotel. We booked breakfast everyday, ( highly recommend...so much great food), we also book dinner 5 of the 8 nights we where there and boy Teresa and Pamela can cook, all meals were great and everyone in our family loved them. (So much fabulous food and deserts) We also had a party at the house for our daughter’s 30th birthday, with a samba band, what a excellent time and a great and fun band! But be ready to samba, as not only is Teresa a fantastic cook but what a samba dancer. She will get everyone moving and taught our whole family. Tiago and Mike arranged tours, soccer matches, pick-ups and drop offs, and special food (birthday cakes) every day for our group with excellent results. (With a very comfortable big van for our group to be able to stay together ) Ask for Raul (He is a former history teacher)as your tour guide he was excellent! We also had Tiago arrange for a private photographer (Março Schmidt fotografia) who did an excellent job and made us all feel comfortable as he took us around sites in Rio to take some various candid photos of our family. I didn’t even get to how great the place looks, photos don’t do it justice. Fresh flowers in every room! And I do not mean a little flower bouquet, there where full flower arrangements! Also our rooms were cleaned daily can you believe that from a Vrbo...a whole other level! Our whole family can’t wait to go back! We want to say a special thanks to Mike Lott, the owner, for make our trip to Rio so outstanding and making all our children and grand child fill comfortable, special, and part of his special Family in Rio. He was excellent to work with prior to and during the trip, what a wonderful person! We felt safe and comfortable at all times! Thank you all so much!!!!!

Summary: The list of superlatives in prior reviews accurately capture most everything I want to communicate. The staff, lead by Thiago, were the best anyone could ask for. They were responsive, kind, understanding and most helpful. Tereza, the Chef de cuisine, was exemplary in every way. Her food in taste, preparation and qualify was one of the many highlights of the trip. Lara too was excellent and helped us in so many ways from translating Uber Eats menus to the best places to go, etc. Coordination of tours, transportation, nightlife and directions were but a few of the accoutrements we enjoyed by the staff. The Villa itself is very accurately depicted in the photos and was truly our Brazilian home for a week. After a few days, we unanimously agreed that we MUST return next year because of this experience. I cannot imagine a better experience in Rio than the one we had, and for that for that, we thank you!

Summary: This experience was outstanding! Myself and 12 friends stayed at the Villa for 10 days. Upon arrival, the staff greeted us after arranging a pick up from the airport. I was introduced to 2 'new' house managers Thiago and Rodrigo, as the Villa had just been placed under new management. In the first minutes of communication, they were professional, personal and eased/improved upon the original planning. Quickly, the full staff was introduced and the week began it's planning. We worked directly with Tereza, the chef, who is the kindest, sweetest person and creates the most delicious (and bountiful) meals. Her food is out-of-this-world and certainly recommended for anyone planning their trips. Laura and Erica were very sweet, kind and attentive, but respectful of space to be sure the house was tidy. Thiago and Rodrigo were responsive at any time if there was anything that required attention to the Villa. The team of 5 are incredible and they blended seamlessly into my group of friends, as we invited them to enjoy the time with us. They are a wonderful team of people and made our time in Rio unforgettable. The home is just lovely. It's in a private, safe, gated street in the Copacabana neighborhood. Very convenient to shops, restaurants and a short walk to the beach. The upstairs pool is small, but a nice option. The suites are all very nicely appointed, the 2 poolside cabanas are not as well appointed and have bunk beds. My friends were not interested in climbing the ladders to the upper bunks and Thiago and Rodrigo quickly made arrangements for us to 'expand' into the neighboring Cottage for a very reasonable fee. This offered everyone, who was not coupled, their own bedroom space and a great option for larger groups. The experience was more than I could have ever asked for. The house is nice, but the team who runs the home is PHENOMENAL. They will make your stay feel like you're visiting your Brazilian family. THANK YOU ALL! You made my birthday incredibly special.

Summary: Our experience staying in the Villa exceeded expectation. We utilized all of the services offered, chef service, car service, guided tour of Rio etc. No complains. On time, Teresa the chef and her staff made the best meal daily (You can tell she loves what she does). Adan (House Manager) is definitely the nucleus that puts it all together. Well mannered, knowledgeable, every request is met with a smile, goes out of his way to please. I cannot say enough about this gentleman. I am planning another trip next year and will be staying in the same villa. Thanks Adan for a memorable time!

Summary: The Villa in Rio provided the ideal place for our UK family including children to stay in Rio for a family wedding. The property manager Adan and Tereza, without being intrusive, were always available to ensure everything went smoothly and to give us excellent local advice on all aspects of a stay in Rio. We availed ourselves of the excellent breakfast provided and also an evening meal where we invited a number of other friends staying locally in Rio. Tereza provides an excellent standard of catering which is very good value for money and being able to hand over some responsibility for cooking and shopping is great! The property itself is superb and more than lives up to its description. It is in a central location. The short walk to the beach and small roof top pool is a great help in keeping the children amused.
