Meet Vitor & Carlos
This review is long overdue (over two years, to be exact). I stayed with Vitor and Carlos for nearly a month when I worked at the Olympics. It was my first experience with Homestay.com and I could not have had a better experience. Vitor and Carlos welcome guests to their home from the moment they arrive.
The apartment was very clean and they provide you with everything you need for the perfect stay: keys, towels, closet space, a desk, etc. The bathroom, kitchen, and living areas are kept extremely clean and I absolutely felt at home during my visit. After you get settled in, they will take you around the neighborhood to get acquainted, which is in the middle of one of Rio's best neighborhoods, Ipanema. This was super helpful and really helped put me at ease in as a first-time solo traveler in a brand new city.
As hosts, Vitor and Carlos are as involved or uninvolved as you want them to be. They are extremely nice and accommodating. Don't worry if you are unable to speak Portuguese, as Vitor is fluent in English; however, Carlos only speaks Portuguese, so it's the perfect situation for any Portuguese learner visiting Brazil! They manage a wellness shop in the neighborhood that you can visit, which has some really neat organic products. At home, I loved spending time watching TV in the living room with them and their small dog, who's also great. We even went out to a bar one night as well.
Overall, I would highly recommend booking with Vitor and Carlos. The location, the amenities, and the hospitality are top notch. I wouldn't even think about staying with anybody else during my future visits to Rio, if I can help it. Looking forward to staying with them again soon!
