Apartment in Rio Barra da Tijuca, beautiful view, close to the beach, across from the subway.

  • Located in Rio de Janeiro, this simple, cosy, and charming apartment is in a prime, safe, and highly valued area of ​​Barra da Tijuca, on the enchanting Ilha da Gigóia — one of the most beloved places for tourists and residents seeking tranquility, nature, and a more relaxed lifestyle. The apartment has a beach house feel: it's practical, comfortable, and pleasant, ideal for those who like uncomplicated environments with personality and that refuge-like atmosphere. It's not a luxury property, but it's welcoming, well-located, and special in its own way. The location is a major advantage. The apartment is close to the beach and just minutes from the Jardim Oceânico Metro Station, facilitating quick, comfortable, and safe access to various tourist attractions in Rio, such as Ipanema, Copacabana, Leblon, the city centre, shopping centres, restaurants, and cultural areas. All this without sacrificing tranquility. From the window or balcony, guests can enjoy a beautiful view of the lagoon, in a calm environment surrounded by nature. The scenery conveys the feeling of being in a refuge within the city, perfect for resting, reading, working more calmly, or simply enjoying the silence after a day at the beach or sightseeing. Ilha da Gigóia is known for its preserved natural landscapes, calm waters, abundant vegetation, and welcoming climate. Furthermore, the island boasts an excellent gastronomic scene, with charming and relaxed restaurants and bars offering everything from Brazilian cuisine to international options—all just steps from the apartment. 🚤 Important to know – access by boat: The apartment is located on Ilha da Gigóia, so to arrive, enter, exit, and move around, it is necessary to use a boat. The crossing is short, quick, and peaceful, and is part of the experience of staying on the island. The boat service operates 24 hours a day, ensuring practicality, safety, and ease for both tourists and residents. Whether for leisure, rest, home office, or a romantic getaway, this apartment offers a simple, authentic, and pleasant experience, combining nature, a good location, mobility, and the charm of living for a few days on an island—in one of the most special places in Barra da Tijuca.

Hosta are nice but the palce is very basic, AC gives error every 5 min after you have to switch off and on a switch, Wifi never worked.And you have to pay R7 for each 1 min boat ride to and from the place per person, which sums up.Andre is attentive but not resolves any of the issues.Beds are very old and mats super soft
