We spent the weekend at Case de Renata before heading to Buzios and Renata took really good care of us - showing us maps and places to eat/view and lending us her umbrella when the thunderstorms came! Breakfast under the tropical canopy with her 4 tortoises was amazing and the best way to start the day. Great bars and restaurants... More

Casa da Renata was a pleasant surprise in Rio de Janeiro. Staying in the are of Santa Teresa was a great choice to know the bohemian and traditional part of Rio. Casa da Renata is cosy, beautiful and comfortable. Let alone the kindness of the owner and the bugios (little monkeys) in the backyard. We loved it! Manuela Holtz More

The rooms are spacious and clean, with friendly and helpful people to great and look after you. There is a shared bathroom, which is clean, but may not suit all. Just a short walk (5mins) and you have... More

The guesthouse is situated in lovely Santa Teresa which is an area with a relaxed feel and quaint colonial style houses. We felt safe there and Renata the owner of the house gave us advice about when to walk and when to take the bus or a taxi - we did all three on occassions and we were fine. Renata... More

The house is spacious and clean and has an 'artsy" flavour as you can see from the photos on the website. Renata is a friendly relaxed woman who takes time to be available for conversations and or guidance/ advice, if you want it. Breakfast is served on the delightful patio --food is good and plentiful. Maybe ask for a back... More
