Close to the bay, this smoke-free vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 4-minute drive to Sambadrome Marquês de Sapucaí or the 4-minute drive to Flamengo Park (and enjoy the property's convenient covered onsite parking in the meantime). Check out other neighborhoods and see more of Rio de Janeiro by hopping on a metro at either Largo do Guimarães Tram Stop, a short 9-minute walk away, or Vista Alegre Tram Stop, 10 minutes away.

Relax in the garden or sip a drink on the porch or lanai of this vacation home. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

No need to pay for a restaurant every night, when you've got an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator on hand, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities include bed sheets, an ironing board, air conditioning, and a dining table.
