Had a wonderfully relaxed 8 nights here after 2 back to back tours in Peru and Ecuador. Our hosts couldn't have been more obliging: from prompt airport pick up, ordering in takeaway pizzas, allowing us to store food and wine in the fridge and being generous in letting us use the kitchen to prepare dinners! We spent several evenings dining... More

We were dropped of by a cab at the rail track for the cabin to Corcovado, just looking at a wall with number 283 on it. This must be it. A little further up the hill there's Casa Caminho. The main house is gorgeous! We stayed in the guest house in the garden which was splendid! Breakfast is absolutely delicious.... More

We were stranded after we couldn't get into the hotel we'd originally booked. When we rang at the gate here late at night, the gentleman couldn't offer us a room, but spend a good hour and a half on the phone finding us a hotel. What a lovely thing to do, he pretty much saved our short stay in Rio... More
