It’s a small hotel, so the floors are pretty quiet. The restaurant / bar is as close to ‘on the beach’ as you can get. A few steps from the amenities of Ipanema Amazing views from the rooftop

Incredible location. This beautifully designed boutique hotel was just perfect in every way… make sure you book the ocean view room and enjoy the nights music, ocean waves whilst relaxing in the hammock. The team went out of their way to make you feel welcomed. Or simply enjoy watching the sunset on the rooftop… incredible stay.. thankyou

Although a great location for access to Ipanema beaches, the hotel appeared run down, provided no amenities you'd expect given the hotel cost. Noisy at night and not a comfortable stay.
