Guesthouse in Icaraí

Guest house in Vila de Icaraí

The guest house combines the tranquility of a VILLAGE with the practicality of the ICARAÍ neighborhood. You can do everything on foot. It is at the end of the backyard of the main house, being totally separate and independent. For the EXCLUSIVE use of the guest, it has a bedroom, bathroom and MINI kitchen for small and quick preparations. Three blocks from ICARAÍ BEACH and in front of Campo de São Bento. The gate to the street is shared with the main house. As there is no parking in the village, I recommend a nearby paid parking lot.

Tiny and Cozy Guest House, swimming pool & garden

We live in a charming house on the street that divides Glória, Catete and Santa Teresa. In 2013, we listed an independent apartment on Airbnb that we had idle here. Then, a little house that we built to receive English friends at the 2014 World Cup, and now it is time to announce this other one that we have just renovated and is delicious, with the right to a private deck and a support cup. Access is through the garden or the main house. The common areas are spacious and airy, with no risk of crowding!
