House vacation rentals in South Zone

Roberta's listing was everything and more. You are in a safe area with security holding down the front 24/7. The place is spacious and can accommodate your party comfortably. We had help keep our place tidy, which was wonderful considering we were all on vacation. Roberta was communicative and efficient with responding - sharing her local recommendations and truly made it feel like we had a friend in Rio. Views from every room, it was difficult to decide which one to select (considering I was the birthday celebrant!) I'm the type of traveler who likes being away from the city and enjoying more local areas. It is close to the city, however, be cautious that traffic will make getting to city attractions a bit much longer (but it is worth it)! All in all, the place is affordable and definitely worth it!

The stay was incredible! I and my friends fell in love with the house, Mariana from the beginning was very attentive and Didi didn't even talk, we arrived at the house and we were amazed at her energy, very helpful, right from the start she showed us the house and the animals (which are beautiful), in addition to that she bought and made breakfast for us! We loved everything and wanted to have stayed longer, me and my friends are already planning the return, not only to the house but also to the loft which is the most beautiful thing too! We simply love and want to return as soon as possible.

Bruno is an exceptional host! His house managers Jardel and Dora are the most caring people! They truly made the difference in our stay. Oh, and the breakfast every morning was the cherry on top. Anytime we needed help, they were always willing to go the extra mile. My friend even accidentally left her phone in the van from the airport and Bruno was able to coordinate with the drivers to retrieve it for her. We were so grateful to have him! Our group of 6 had a fantastic time in Rio at this Air B&B. Highly recommend staying here!

Very cozy house. Beautiful view. Well lit, airy town. Mrs. Bia is a very nice and available person. I really liked it! I intend to come back.

A secluded safe condominium haven close drive to the beach and all necessities. A stunning garden and tasteful, impeccably up-kept house with best linen I’ve experienced in airbnb. Pool and luscious garden setting was a bliss. Lucia was an amazing host, I am very happy to have spent a week there! Absolutely recommend.

Beautiful home and hostess, high ceilings and unique space made for a beautiful stay

My friend’ commented is great is place and feel free a home plus ocean views. Definitely coming back again someday

Very nice house, extremely well equipped in a great location in a nice and secure area. Housekeepers are nice and easily accessible. (Thanks to Jo for the mosquito repellent, without which the stay would just not be possible…)

in the heart of botafogo, the house has a great leisure area.

Our experience at Sam Río’s art deco mansion was wonderful. Everything was great from check-in, cleanliness, communication, outstanding location, and even some playboy posters make for an authentic rio feel inside of the beautiful art deco mansion. The balcony has breath taking views of the sunrise and sunset. We had a group of 8 guys, who all had plenty of room for themselves. This mansion is located near the favela’s but we never once felt unsafe and even got to walk through and explore the favela area, just be smart. Located right between Ipanema and Copacabana, we felt like we were located in the middle of everything. Short walks to the great beaches, shops, and restaurants. Overall, if your looking to get the authentic rio and cultural feel I highly recommend staying with Goitaca in this beautiful art deco mansion.

Great place , marcelo was a wonderful host

Giant house, ideal for our trip, which was a bachelorette party. He treated all the women hosted super well! Very well organized house, spacious and clean rooms, comfortable. Living room combined with the kitchen, with a large space, accommodating up to a couple to sleep on the sofa. Fully equipped kitchen, barbecue area with freezer, large table. We had no problems with the boat to make the crossing at any time, not even at dawn. I just remembered to bring repellent, as it is on an island, there are a lot of mosquitoes.

Christina was absolutely amazing!! Place is stunning and she helped us throughout out whole trip 10/10 recommend!!!!

Amazing place in Vidigal! The view and the terrace is unbeatable. Saulo and the other hosts were very helpful. The place is ideal for 4 people, but could fit more if needed. We felt very safe and it is easy to reach once you understand how the transport works. Can definitely recommend!

Victor is a great host. Super nice people and easy to communicate. The accommodation is exactly like the photos. Great location, super quiet and easy access. I hope I can come back more often.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this apartment in the favela of Rocinha! The view was out of this world, we could see the Christ the Redeemer statue and the entire city stretching out before us. The house itself was spacious, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen had all the essentials, the bed was cosy, and the internet was super fast (around 200 Mbps). There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, as well as convenient mototaxi and van stops to quickly reach the base of the favela. Our host, Jordão, was incredibly friendly and helpful. He gave us a fantastic tour of Rocinha, showing us stunning viewpoints and giving us real insight into daily life in the favela. One of the highlights was attending the famous weekly baile funk party, a unique and unforgettable experience. We truly have no complaints and would recommend this place to anyone looking for an alternative way to experience Rio. Rocinha is a vibrant neighbourhood that never sleeps!

I recommend totally this place, the house/apartment are great and in excellent conditions. Is a very private place to relax. The hosts are wonderful. All in our stay was ok.

I spent three weeks at Judite´s place and it was great! By far the best place I´ve stayed while in Rio. Very good location, close to the beach, safe, full of restaurants and bars walking distance, and a supermarket across the road. The place itself is very comfortable, clean, it has everything I needed, and very spacious. She´s very friendly and even came by to say hello. I definitely recommend her place.

thank you for your welcome for your kindness the house is very nice a total change of scenery for us Europeans a very nice experience on this island before continuing the stay in copacabana We will come back to Elizabeth's place in high season to recharge our batteries. thank you to the whole team that manages the stewardship i highly recommend it

The place was super tidy and had two bags of cookies on the table for us when we arrived. Carolina was very kind in being flexible with check-in, she always responded quickly, the place was super clean and really is very close to the subway, you can walk. The neighborhood is also very safe. I recommend it.

The on-site stay was great! The house matches the pictures. Rafaella responded quickly and was always attentive.

It was an amazing trip, I felt very comfortable, the house met all expectations, each beautiful tidy, the rooms are very fresh with air conditioning, the neighborhood is very pleasant and access is very easy The experience was sensational Thank you so much, I want to go again ;) Until next

All by listing ! Ivanice was extremely attentive and helpful, the environment is very peaceful, a place for those who want to enjoy nature, a beautiful view of the Gávea rock, we certainly recommend the accommodation.

House located in a safe village with local shops nearby for small purchases and breakfast. The house has a very large living room that allows a large group of guests to socialize. Atmaja is always quick to respond to all our questions. Upon arrival, they consulted us on how we would like the beds to be arranged in the rooms to best suit the group.
