Villa Laurinda

Antica villa con arredi originali e opere d'arte contemporanea. Accoglienza eccezionale del padrone di casa in persona. Posto fantastico tranquillo e vivace pieno di locali, negozietti e una galleria di arte tradizionale.

Belle maison pleine de charme avec décoration et ameublement intérieurs choisis. Accueil chaleureux de Walter et Cristina et discussions éclairantes sur Rio. Petit déjeuner sur la terrasse au soleil ! Un cadre idéal pour un séjour privilégié au cœur de Santa Teresa.

Beautiful property and garden that's lovely to hang out or have a swim in. The rooms are in different buildings, so I can only comment on the pool house. I appreciated the helpful, friendly nature of the team. They even let me check in several hours early.

For me, the bed was quite uncomfortable-- mattress, old pillows and polyester sheets. I was also anticipating a quiet, restful vibe at night but there were lots of barking dogs and crying babies.

Fascinating building in a really interesting part of Rio. Bit of a hike from the centre and up a serious hill but taxi/ metro make it all doable. Having a pool was a real bonus in the height of summer. The staff were super friendly and really helpful with advice and sorting restaurants/ taxis etc.

Not much.
