Exclusive Rainforest Paradise

Located inside an ecological condominium, in the heart of the Atlantic Forest, the house gives you the feeling of being many kilometers away from Rio de Janeiro — when in reality, you are still within the city, in Gávea, just a 20-minute drive from Leblon Beach. It is an exclusive and truly unique place in Rio: perfect for spending a few days immersed in nature, surrounded by forest, trails, waterfalls, and breathtaking views, while still being close to the city. A true retreat that offers the best of both worlds: the peace of nature and the convenience of being in the heart of Rio de Janeiro.
