Amazing loft with an incredible view on Rio Center. Julianne & Ariel are very nice hosts. A bit far from touristic areas and places to visit but good location to... read more relax away from the noise from the city center (few buses to connect down to Santa Teresa and Ubers do climb up there).

  Stunning location, beautiful interior, excellent communication, and great breakfast! Thank you so much!!

  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.

  Such a beautiful and unique place. My wife and I loved the stay. Vegan breakfasts are the best ones I tried in my life, I think. If I had someone... read more cook for me like that, I'd be a vegan in a heartbeat.

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

  O espaço tem realmente uma vista incrível e uma acomodação maravilhosa. Vale muito a experiência!

  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!

  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!

  Myself and my son had a wonderfully relaxing stay and I would definitely come again and recommend to my friends.

Julianne is an incredible host who genuinely puts... read more a lot of thought and care into sharing the community lifestyle she has created. We were served a lovely vegan breakfast, had a wonderful massage and jacuzzi bubble bath and deep sleep in a very comfortable bed. Total decompression after a long flight!

The Loft is hugely spacious and stylishly decorated, set up above Rio in the lush and peaceful green area of Santa Teresa.

The only downside was we felt slightly stranded as sometimes taxis and Ubers were difficult to order and a bit disappointed that the swimming pool was out of action. However, everything else made up for this.

  C’est les yeux fermés que je vous recommande ce logement. Que vous soyez seul, en volonté de paix et repos, ou à deux pour visiter Rio, c’est avec certitude que... read more vous trouverez votre bonheur. C’est l’équilibre parfait entre intimité, bienveillance et échanges. Vous serez à votre place. Le loft est splendide….. rien à dire, la vue est à couper le souffle, les équipements sont parfait, la décoration est parfaitement pensée, la salle de bain est unique est l’emplacement est parfait. Le petit déjeuner est excrément bon et complet,( parfois un peu trop, une sieste sera nécessaire pour terminer) vous serez surpris du pouvoir du vegan. Enfin, c’est un gros coup de cœur pour Juliane et ariel, leur personnalité rajoute un charme à la maison, ils répondent dans des temps records, vous laisse votre intimité, sont extrêmement gentils et je suis sur qu’ils sauront parler votre langue quelques soit. En bref, c’est un 10/10.

  Muito bem recebida. Local maravilhoso!

  Quem chega pelo aplicativo Waze tem um pouco de dificuldade de encontrar o local, visto que o aplicativo não o identifica corretamente. Melhor utilizar Go0gle Maps.

Juliane é... read more muito receptiva, o local é bem amplo e confortável. As instalações são novas e funcionam perfeitamente.

Quem está acostumado com colchão mais firme, pode encontrar dificuldade para dormir, pois o colchão é bem mole.

A decoração do quarto é aconchegante e colorida na medida certa.

  Wow- when I tell you this is the best airbnb experience I have ever had, it’s true. The loft and home is beautiful, private, and offers amazing views. But what... read more was truly magical was the way JuJu and her family welcomed us and made us feel at home. We also had Juju’s vegan breakfast which was hands down the best breakfast we’ve have ever had. I can’t speak highly enough on this home and Juju and her family. It truly made our experience in Rio that much more amazing.

  I was looking for a place where I could feel safe, get local experience, and be close to nature. Also, a quiet place to work during weekdays
Well,... read more I got a lot more than that.
This place exceeds the expectation. It's so beautiful and magical. The ambiance, location, and views make this place so special and unique.
Ariel and Juliane add another dimension to the experience. I briefly met Juliane before her Europe trip. She got me introduced to several art&culture groups and hiking groups. It helped me to explore the city in no time. I can call myself a Carioca now 😀
Ariel was always there to address my concerns. He offered his personal phone wifi when there was a brief internet outage. He paid for services when I ran out of cash. Never expected this level of hospitality from airbnb hosts.
Food service is another perk of staying here. Rosy is an awesome cook. She and Terri served delicious breakfast and lunch with professional touch.
The overall experience is very rewarding.

  A Juliane foi muito solicita, foi super flexível e muito atenciosa desde o primeiro contato.

O loft é lindo, os detalhes da decoração e a vista são o ponto... read more alto.
Fui de carro de aplicativo e foi fácil de chegar.

Gracias Juliane e família por me receber tão bem.

  Staying here was the cherry on top of our trip to Brazil. The location is amazing, sitting on top of the city with amazing views and a short drive to... read more restaurants and the rest of the city. The loft is gorgeous and very comfortable, and we were treated like family by the hosts. I'm so glad we picked this space and I would highly recommend it!

  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 🤩

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

  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❤️

  Gratidão Juju e Ariel pelo acolhimento em seu maravilhoso espaço, um paraíso no meio de Santa Tereza, mas "Santa" foi a ideia de vocês em criar esse cantinho aconchegante, confortável,... read more elegante e acolhedor, de ótimo serviço e instalações, a paz no meio do Rio de Janeiro, com vistas maravilhosas, muito verde e pequenos mimos como a visita do maestro Tucano, que com seu canto e beleza encanta, realmente tudo muito charmoso.

  Great place for a quite retreat ❤️

  Juliane et Ariel sont de vraiment gentils hôtes. L'atmosphere de leur maison est à leur image, douce calme, amicale et paisible.
Le loft se situe en haut de la maison.... read more La décoration est aussi belle que sur les photo et c'est un très bel endroit pour vivre.
La vue est fantastique!
La maison est située sur les hauteurs de Rio, avec l'avantage d'être plus au calme et à l'ecart du bruit de la ville.
Un très bel endroit!

  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!)

  One of the most enjoyable airbnb trips! Warm welcome of Juju and her family, delicious healthy breakfast and tastefully decorated loft with an incredible view made it for an wonderful... read more stay! Thank you Juju! Would love to come back!
