My wife and I had a great time staying in Santa Rosa! Juliane made everything easy and gave us helpful tips about everything.
Incredible value. Easy drive to Copacabana and... read more Sugar Loaf, very close to Christ the redeemer.
Highly recommended!

  We had such a fabulous time at Juliane. We did not want to leave. We were welcomed ever so warmly, the place was truly magical and it was a cherry... read more on top after our 3 week travel across Brazil. We hope to be back <3

  Awesome place, extremely friendly host! Must visit if you are staying at santa teresa! Would definitely go back.

  Juliane was a beautiful host! She was so attentive and helpful throughout our stay. The place itself is incredible. It has the perfect balance of beautiful nature and wildlife and... read more a stones throw from the city. Christ the redeemer was literally 10mins in an Uber or a nice hike. The energy of the loft is energising and having the pool to take a dip was so lovely. Don’t even hesitate as it’s actually a piece of paradise. We’ll be back one day 🥰🙏✨💛

  The loft is just as pictured - beautifully furnished and incredible views. The location is a quiet escape from the rest of Rio. Juju is a very friendly host and... read more very responsive. Would definitely recommend!

  Juju’s place was absolutely stunning- we had a very lovely stay- thank you so much!

  Très bien. Confortable spacieux et paisible. Au contact de la nature avec une belle vue sur la ville. La nourriture proposée est excellente.

  True definition of an Air B & B very responsive host and friendly just would recommend nicer towels / linens. That’s about it

  We had a fantastic stay, Juju was extremely kind and welcoming. The house is beautiful and a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of central Rio. Only downside was... read more that it was a bit difficult to get Ubers up in the hills. But, Juju was very forthcoming and helpful about how best to get transportation.

  If you're looking for a place to stay in Rio to enjoy the jungle and replenish your soul, this is the place for you. Juju has created a beautiful home... read more that offers guests a stunning and comfortable stay. You'll start your day by waking up to the sounds of the jungle and being greeted by the dogs. We recommend taking a cooking class; the Flavors of Brazil class was our favorite because we learned how history impacted the foods locals eat. The rest of the trip we could recognize dishes at restaurants and understand their origins. So cool! Juju made sure we had everything we needed and suggested amazing alternatives for when rain cancelled our plans. This enabled us to keep away from crowds, interact with locals, and see the city from a unique perspective. And soaking in the bath after a day of exploration was the perfect way to wind down for the night. The home and community that Juju has created and shares every day with her guests is truly what made our trip memorable! Thank you Juju!

  My stay at the loft space at Soul Rebel was an absolute dream. I needed to rest after very long travel from a forest village in the western Amazon... read more to Rio, and ended up just spending 2 full days enjoying the spaciousness, the amazing views, and the lush vegan culinary delights delivered to my table by Rose.

Everyone was delightful and eager to ensure I had a the best stay.

Thanks very much Ju, Ariel and Rose.
I hope to stay with you again sometime.

  Adoro locais com personalidade. Esse tinha muita. Amei demais relaxar na minha própria companhia nesse lar.

  Wir haben uns sofort Willkommen und wie Zuhause gefühlt. Juliane, ihr Mann Ariel & Lindo & Rosi waren wundervoll und total herzlich.
Die Gespräche mit Ihnen haben wir sehr... read more genossen. Danke, dass ihr euch so viel Zeit für uns genommen habt. Wir haben sie sehr ins Herz geschlossen ❤️.
Das Loft ist genauso wie auf den Bildern mit einer sagenhaften Aussicht und viel viel Platz. Das Bad gleicht einer Oase 😊
Wir sind froh, dass wir uns entschieden hatten, dort unsere Tage für Rio zu verbringen. Sehr authentisch, ruhig und sicher. Herrlich ist auch die Nähe zur Natur.
Wir empfehlen auch das vegane Frühstück - es ist mit so viel Liebe und Zeit hergerichtet und schmeckt fantastisch 🤩

  I spent a week in Rio, partially down in Ipanema and the remainder up in Juliane's place- I got a taste of two different flavours of Rio. If you are... read more looking for a peaceful location, that feels safe and cozy with great views of Rio and don't mind a bit of a commute to get to the city (Getting an Uber was sometimes a bit of waiting game!) then this is the perfect spot for you. One thing to note is that while the apartment itself is your own private space, it is connected directly with the host's family home- so that needs to be taken into consideration. For me, this was ideal- I felt welcomed into Julianes home and her whole family (especially the dogs!) were extremely welcoming. I had a bit of a rough week in Rio, and Juliane went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable despite the setbacks which I truly appreciate. While I myself am not vegan, her incredible vegan breakfasts blew me away- and were the best breakfasts I had in my time in Rio!

  Best Airbnb ever! The house must've been some mad architect's fever dream -- meant in the most positive way: the minute attention to detail, the varied design elements, the unique... read more features. Just amazing! The loft is spacious, with an incredible view from the huge balcony. Off the beaten path somewhat, but the wooded surroundings are lovely (and if you wanted to be at the beach you wouldn't be reading this review). Enjoyed hanging with locals at the bar up the road -- sweet people, language gap notwithstanding. Most importantly, Juliane and Ariel are such wonderful hosts...caring, generous, attentive, fun, eclectic, and very smart. A pleasure just listening to them talk about their love for their home and fam, friends and visitors, lifestyle. Like the good old days of vaca rentals, when you could actually make new friends. And I feel I have. Recommend without qualification (and sign up for Juju's cooking class, it's a blast!)

  Great place for a quite retreat ❤️

  Juliane et son mari m’a vraiment bien accueilli, je me suis sentie comme à la maison. Le logement est vraiment bien décoré !

  Loft is amazing, Juliane is a very friendly, nice and attentive host. The house is very welcoming. Thanks for letting me stay!

  Muito bem recebida. Local maravilhoso!

  Absolutely loved my stay here. Beautiful views, comfortable bed, awesome spot. Juliane and her team are awesome. And the dogs are the sweetest. Highly recommended!

  We had a wonderful stay at the loft. The place is beautifully restored and decorated and the views are magnificent. Juju is such a great host, always responsive and so... read more welcoming and friendly. We opted for the breakfast each morning, lovingly made by Juju, and it was one of the highlights of our trip- highly recommend.

Getting to the property is straightforward; we took an Uber from Leblon. We found that the yellow taxis were a little hesitant to go into Santa Teresa but Ubers are fine and affordable. The hills are very steep but the Uber drivers are used to them. Even in the rain which is quite an experience !

We would definitely come back to stay with Juju if we are lucky enough to return to Brazil.

  This is the most special place I have stayed - a perfect place for a retreat to rejuvenate, write, reflect, enjoy, heal, expand.

Juliane also helped coordinate a fabulous massage for me, cooked me great vegan tacos, made my stay easy, and her gratefulness and expansiveness is contagious! I ate at the little local restaurant right down the way and made friends there. The world is small but full of big kindness - this place celebrates that!

  I stayed here for my birthday celebration & it was truly a peaceful experience. I was surrounded by nature & I woke up to an amazing view everyday. I will... read more definitely book another stay when I come to Rio❤️

  Paradies in Rio mit grandioser Aussicht. Weg von der Grossstadt und trotzdem schnell überall. Immer wieder gerne!

  Beautiful space and incredible location!!!

  Juliane’s place is very idyllic and peaceful, would recommend if you want to go on a retreat and get away from the chaos of the city. We really loves the... read more dogs that came to cuddle every day 🙂
One sidenote is that, because it is quite far, so you will need some more patience getting and uber from and to the airbnb.

  Peaceful place to be
