it’s a beautiful location in a nice neighborhood and with stunning scenery. it’s very private and not busy and you feel like it’s a quiet retreat from the chaos of rio- the service on every level was fabulous. we would definitely recommend it and although we were one of only two couples there we felt very safe and comfortable.

the pool is a bit tired but everything else is amazing!

I loved the view, we could see the Cristo redentor, Pão de Açúcar, o estádio! Super quiet, very secluded, we felted we were the whole time like in or own house or like at our grandma’s house, one night we got to the hotel around 1am and it was so quiet and almost all the lights was off we felted just home! It was an amazing feeling! It was not a regular hotel, it was an Amazing “family house”! ❤️ The staffs was just so lovely, serving an amazing breakfast, always ready to help us with anything we needed! Thank you to Everton, Yasmin, Duarte, Vinicius for the amazing job

I wouldn’t say “I didn’t like” It’s just a tip that the hotel should keep a few vila Santa Teresa drivers 🚗 if in case the guests needs it! When rains it’s very hard to find a ride ( Uber, cab) to take to the top of Santa Teresa because it’s very slippery! But just a tip! ❤️ I miss Rio and this amazing hotel! For sure it’s in my first choice when I come back to Rio de Janeiro!

Thr view over the city. Thr breakfast.. Also, the room was nice and big

The distance to downtown. Some taxi drivers could not find the location. Our account was charged with 10 % service charge which did not know about when booking.

Staff is extremely welcoming and always available to help. They always made us feel welcomed, special, and pampered. I do not recall everyone’s names and would love to thank them here: Everton, Vinicius, Juan, and everyone else. The wireless internet is excellent, I was able to host a 2h video conference with over 30 participants with no problems.

Its the perfect location to come down and have a relaxing time in Rio. The short distance to the beach by taxi ist very convenient and the peace and quiet up at the Villa is incredible. Service and hotel management is so welcoming and lovely you feel immediately at home. Breakfast is on point and what ever you like they make it possible. Looking forward to a view days in the city but will miss the view and relaxed location very much! Congratulations to this fabulous sanctuary!

Definitely one of the best places to stay in Rio. Absolute privacy, we even cancelled our sightseeing plans and enjoy the place.

it was amazing. great rooms and the staff was Very attentive.

The Wi-Fi could have been better. the location is a little isolated, but the amazing views make it worth it.

Spectacular view of Rio, even in the rain! We loved how private & peaceful the property & grounds are. The decor is stunning - lots of attention to detail!

Nothing

Vista maravilhosa!

Very slow breakfast service.
