Room was tiny (as expected right here on the beach) but spotless. Most of all, the location is incredible, and the staff incredibly helpful. We had many hours after checking out of our room while waiting the airport, and the staff let us continue to use all the hotel amenities, including the incredible pool and view over Copacabana Beach from the sky deck. Six stars out of five!

Great location and food but small rooms

The hotel is very well located at the end of Ipanema beach with a restaurant that backs onto the beach. The food is very good and reasonably priced but the rooms were on the small side. Reasonable value for money given location

Perfectly located for exploring Ipanema, Leblon, and just a short stroll to Copacabana Beach. The hotel offers great amenities, including an on-site restaurant and a rooftop bar with stunning ocean and beach views. Everyone—from the concierge and front desk to the beach staff and waiters—was incredibly helpful and welcoming.
