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!

  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!

  Tout était parfait durant mon séjour, je recommande !

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

  Wow, what an amazing loft high in the hills of Santa Teresa. The place has a wonderful jacuzzi tub and a beautiful Portuguese-tiled pool. Amazing views of Rio and surrounded... read more by the lush tropical jungle and wildlife. JuJu, Ariel, and baby Neo were fantastic hosts. Would I stay there again...YES!

  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).

  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!

  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.

  We had a great time beautiful place it was everything we wanted/needed

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

  A tranquil, beautiful retreat from the intoxicating Rio craziness. On the edge of the Tijucu rain forest, expect to see Toucans visit you in the haze of the morning and... read more exotic butterflies flitting between trees as you munch on your tropical fruit breakfast. Sound idyllic? That’s because it is! A 30-40 minute walk gets you into the heart of the bustling Bohemian neighbourhood of Santa Teresa with access to the wider city from there. Julianne and Ariel are great hosts. It’s a way of life and not just about hosting. Always on hand to help, offer insider tips and make their guests feel part of the family during your stay. Had a fab morning with Julianne and other guests grabbing some healthy breakfast in Santa Teresa before absorbing the sensory overload of a Carnival Blocco in full swing. Followed by a more sedate ramble through one of the many markets Rio has to offer and buying up all the tropical fruit we could find! Thanks for a great stay guys! Highly recommended!

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

  It was outstanding experience! Probably the best Airbnb I’ve ever been to - I’m at least 10 years an Airbnb user - the place is extremely authentic and exotic: the... read more pictures doesn’t make it justice, it looks 10x better. There is a super delicious and healthy restaurant at the place “soul rebel” which you can feed from all meals. The views and history aspects close by and from the place itself are indeed breathtaking. Sugar loaf and Christ the redeemer are just at the corner! The owner Juju is a super woman: a vegan chef, makes 100/100 in hospitality skills and is very friendly and down to earth person. I came in with my baby, Juju made sure to think out of the box. She’d prepared our loft with kid’s toys, diaper changer, baby swimming pool - which was all a great surprise for us. Juju also helped on taxi drivers recommendation! In general, she made us feel at home as part of her family. I will never forget our superb stay with her, and hopefully we will be back many times again!

  Sehr toller Aufenthalt!
Wenn man etwas Ruhe vom Trubel in Rio brauch, genau richtig!
Super schönes Loft!
Gerne wieder!

  Julianne is one of the most welcoming hosts we have experienced, greeting us upon arrival. Every morning was met with the most amazing views of the city below, and the... read more terrace was where most time was spent in the evening. This beautiful property had a lush pool/outdoor area, surrounded by breathtaking nature and even a mango tree. The hosts' pets were certainly a highlight of our visit, especially Loki the dog who showed us around our first day. We recommend trying the breakfast service, which was thoughtfully curated by Julianne. Our stay was unforgettable, and we hope to return in the future!

I highly recommend this place !

  Juju is literally one of the best hosts I’ve ever had. She hand makes the vegan breakfast- from the milk to the jam and baked goods. She also super friendly... read more and offers helpful advice such as cab apps and lowkey beaches. The property and space is authentic and feels very homie, the hot tub was very hot and great. Only con is that Ubers will cancel often due to distance up the mountain/road construction during the day. But the location is peaceful and beautiful.

  The loft is wonderfully beautiful, Juliane and Ariel (and their baby son) are great hosts who were very helpful and friendly.

  Juliane était très sympathique et toujours réactive, c’est agréable. Le petit déjeuner vegan en supplément est très bon.

Le lit est un peu (trop) mou. L’air conditionné fait énormément de bruit, ce qui n’est pas très agréable la journée ou la nuit.
Lors de notre passage, beaucoup de travaux autour de la maison ce qui rendait l’accès à la piscine compliqué (vis-à-vis des ouvriers et du bruit environnant).
En résumé, un bon séjour, un rien trop cher pour ce que c’est.

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

  Minha estadia foi perfeita. Consegui estender mais um dia nesse lugar incrível que super valeu a pena. Vim com a minha cachorra, que amou e conseguiu aproveitar muito a casa... read more com o aval da Juju.
O Loft é lindo e exatamente como descirto nas fotos. Mas nada supera estar aqui nesse ambiente tranquilo, com uma vista linda, piscina incrível e recomendo fechar com a anfitriã a alimentação. Mesmo eu não sendo vegana, fiquei apaixonada e maravilhada com a qualidade e sabor da comida.
Voltarei com certeza.

  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.

  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!

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

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 🥰🙏✨💛
