Enjoy a three-night stay in an ocean-view apartment in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro.  This newly renovated ocean-view studio sleeps four, via a queen-size bed and sofa bed.  It has a brand new kitchen and bathroom, and is equipped with all necessary appliances, utensils, linens, as well as air conditioning, cable TV and Wi-Fi.

This apartment is steps away from everything necessary for a tranquil and fun-filled vacation:  shopping, pharmacies, bakeries, banks, etc.  Most importantly, it is a half-block from the Copacabana beach!  The nearby nightlife includes several lively restaurants and bars.

The apartment is conveniently located three blocks from the subway and a half block from bus transportation to major tourist destinations.

Considered one of the most famous beaches in the world, Praia de Copacabana is nicknamed the “Little Princess of the Sea”. Its ancient name Tupi was Sacopenapã: “the sound and the flapping wings of the herons” and its golden age was the 30′s through the 50′s, when Copacabana Palace was the meeting pont of international jet-setters. The 4 km sandy beach, stretching from Posto 2 (lifeguard watchtower 2) to Posto 6 (lifeguard watchtower 6), is bordered by two historic forts: Fort Copacabana (1914) and Fort Duque de Caxias (1779). Along the beach runs the well-known promenade representing ocean waves (designed by the Brazilian architect Roberto Burle Marx and achieved in 1970). Have a coconut water at one of the many kiosks and enjoy the wonderful view of Rio Bay. Enjoy the bicycle lane skirting the beach, rent a sun umbrella and, if you wish, have a swim (but the water here is not the best: Copacabana is closer than Ipanema to the bay). Come here in weekends, when Avenida Atlântica is closed to traffic and Cariocas enjoy the promenade by bike, skate or rollerblades.
