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.

  Nice Place!! Peaceful

  Amazing private loft with an incredible view! Juliane and her husband were kind and welcoming. Juliane was great to talk to and provided great recommendations! Puppies were super cute and... read more welcoming too! Sometimes it would take longer to obtain an uber later in the evening since its uphill and roads are narrow. However, reserving the ubers really helped. 10/10 stay.

  Juliane était très sympathique et toujours réactive, c’est agréable. Le petit déjeuner vegan en supplément est très bon.
La localisation est un peu excentrée mais la vue du balcon... read more est magnifique.
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.

  We were so happy with our stay! Beautiful home and really nice cute dogs 🙂 perfect place to relax while you’re in Rio.

Highly recommended!

  Nous avons passé 4 jours chez Juliane et Ariel, et avons adoré le loft ainsi que le quartier. Un peu loin a pieds du centre de Santa Teresa, mais nous... read more n’avons et aucun souci à trouver des taxis pour descendre ou remonter. Par ailleurs, il y a un petit restaurant excellent à 100m de chez eux, ainsi qu’un petit bar très sympathique. Le loft est décoré avec goût et la vue est époustouflante. Juliane avait pris soin d’y déposer quelques jouets pour enfants et notre fils était ravi ! Le petit déjeuner de Juliane est juste une merveille. En tant qu’hôtes, ils ont été très réactif et accueillant, nous ont donné de bons conseils et nous ont permis de rester chez eux en attendant notre vol du soir. Si nous revenons à Rio, nous reviendrons chez Juliane c’est certain !

  This place feels just like a dream! Wonderful view, wonderful hosts, wonderful bed. Thanks for everything! 🙏🏻✨

Fui de carro de aplicativo e foi fácil de chegar.

Gracias Juliane e família por me receber tão bem.

  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.

  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.

  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.

  Muito bem recebida. Local maravilhoso!

  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!

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.

  I used this place as a writing retreat and had the greatest time! It’s peaceful and calming - not even the rainy days of Rio could bother me. The view... read more was spectacular and if you are a dog person, you are in for a treat!

Uber will take a while to pick you up, though. So you might want to plan leaving a bit ahead or call a cab. Juliane was very helpful in getting me one for the airport, as well. 10/10.

  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 really is a peaceful, safe, and comfortable place to lay your head at night. And the BATHTUUBB!! 😭🙌🏾 It was wonderful. Well worth the stay. Two things to be... read more aware of:
1) Coming in after the front entrance is locked. Make sure to take the plastic thingy off the key pad, or else it won’t work. It wasn’t in the instructions so I had to bang on the door. 😬 Sorry.
2) When Ubering, copy and paste the address from airbnb app into Uber. Apparently, there are different neighborhoods that have the same address. Remember what the front of house looks like to help guide your drivers to the right place. Could never pinpoint the exact location.
Otherwise, fantastic place to stay.

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

  THE FOOD....... I went to Soul Rebel without knowing what to expect, The house was super clean and nice, very unique style surrounded by nature and away from Rio's hustle.... read more The view is completely breathtaking and Juliana is not only a great host but also an attentive and kind person...

But most importantly... THE FOOD.. sweet Jesus baby Mary and joseph... This is some of the best, healthiest food I've had, not only in Rio, not Only in Brasil, but in my whole life... I was well nourished for every day and I couldn't believe it was vegan.

Thank you so much, I'll def be coming back at least to eat!
