Smoking friendly holiday rentals in South Zone

Such a clean and spacious place to stay for a week! Very walkable to almost everything you need in Rio. The beach is right out front, multiple restaurants within 2-3 mins of walking, and the grocery stores are right across the building. Quite honestly such a steal for the spot you’re getting! Never felt unsafe in our stay here and the doormen were always greeting us! Host was extremely responsive in a timely manner. The view from the balcony overlooking copacabana beach is also breathtaking! If you do have an earlier flight before check-in or a later flight after check-out, the doormen might not be comfortable keeping your luggages in storage which is not the host’s fault. It honestly depends on who is working at that time. Which I understand because we had a bunch of big luggages. The doorman working at the moment just wasn’t comfortable being responsible for that many personal belongings. There is a storage unit company just right across the street and we had no problems using it!

My stay in Jonas' place was absolutely amazing. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything I needed. It had a cozy and welcoming feel that made it easy to relax after long days exploring Rio. The check-in process was smooth, and the building felt very secure, which I really appreciated. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Botafogo, a lively and authentic neighborhood. I loved being surrounded by great restaurants, cafes, and local shops, all within walking distance. Public transport was also easily accessible, which made getting around the city really convenient. If you’re looking for a place that’s well-located, safe, and gives you a real taste of local life in Rio, I’d definitely recommend this one. I’d happily stay here again!

Excellent reception, very comfortable and clean department... steps from the beach,metro and close to tourist attractions...a 10

Belchior has been a dear to us since the first communication. The flat is charming in every detail, and even staying for a short time we could feel at home. The location is great. We sure want to go back!

I had a great experience and enjoyed my time here. Easy instructions, friendly and helpful staff. Close enough to desired locations, but enough distance to not be bothered with too much noise. I would definitely book here again.

First of all, I have to start by saying that Enzo was the best Airbnb host I have ever encountered in my life!!! Always quick to respond, gave me great local recommendations, helped me search for tours, and even approved my request to check out quite late, which was extremely generous and kind. Second, the apartment is great. Comfortable bed with everything you need. Clean and smelled nice. There is a 24/7 very friendly front desk, so I felt safe. Finally, the location is second to none!! You are a 2-minute walk from Copacabana beach, and there are multiple really nice restaurants around the apartment. Thank you so much, Enzo. When I visit Rio again, I will definitely be staying in one of your apartments.

Gaetan and his group were very friendly and helpful. Beautiful home in a central location. Perfect for a small group. Would definitely return!

a great apartment, an incredible view, very well located, I had a very quiet stay in this apartment, returning to Rio I will definitely stay there again!

incredible host, very helpful and nice place located near some amazing sites of Rio

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.

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.

Good price, great hosts. This was my 4th trip to Brasil, this is the safest place i have stayed. Very small monkeys come right up to the villa

It was a great stay! The house is very spacious and has a lot of natural light and tall ceilings for air to flow through which made it nice to relax in at all times. The rooms all have fans or ventilators as well. The area is perfect as you are right near the botanical gardens and close to the restaurants and bars in Leblon / Gávea. It is also only about a 15 minute walk to the beach. The added amenities such as a well equipped kitchen, washing machine and TV were very nice to have. Patrick was also very responsive and flexible. Thank you !

BEST HOST!!! We have collectively stayed in 100s of Airbnb’s and Marcos is by far the best host we’ve ever had. Anything you need Marcos is always on top of it. Incredibly kind and helpful guy! His space is amazing: spectacular view, quiet at night (fall asleep to the sound of the ocean), two routers with VERY fast wifi, ample space and comfortable beds. Right outside of the apartment is a walking/biking path that you can take for a short walk or bike to Leblon beach. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Rio!

We loved our stay! The place is beautiful, safe, comfortable, and peaceful. I would definitely come back. The staff were also very kind and helpful.

So great! Kind host and comfortable space.

A flawless host and a magnificent condominium and apartment. The balcony offers an ocean view, and falling asleep to the sound of waves is the best. The apartment is very clean and cozy, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The property features a heated pool, cleaned weekly. There are cameras and staff everywhere, making it very calm and safe. The host was very attentive and friendly. Right across the street is a beach with few people, where you can enjoy the ocean. I travel a lot, and this was one of the best stays. Thank you! ❤️

Super recommend Guilherme and Nadja's apartment. Well located, close to great bars, restaurants and subway station. Nadja always responded very quickly. Refurbished and super-equipped apartment. I hope to return more often

My stay was wonderful, a pity that was short-lived. The location is perfect. The amazing view and the super cozy and spacious apartment. I felt at home! In addition, the condominium is super family, with clear information and good communication between the employees. The apartment is exactly as in the pictures and larger than expected. It is very close to Olegario, which has exactly the best bars, restaurants and everything you need like: market, bakery, gym… I liked a lot and didn't want to leave kkk for sure I will be back. I am grateful to Ana for all information and availability.

Perfect place! Perfect communications! Great host. I highly recommend!

The place is small but cozy with all the possible amenities to cook, bathe and sleep, despite being in a busy place you do not hear anything from outside, the concierges are super attentive to our arrivals and departures and very good vibes. It is located in a super central place 10 minutes from the Cinelandia subway on foot, which connects with many tourist attractions and close to many attractive places such as the Selaron staircase and the Lapa arches on foot, in addition to the Lapa bars less than 1 block away, the uber arrives and leaves without problems and there is a 24-hour bakery, pharmacies and greengrocers very close. We loved the place and I 100% recommend staying there. Luiz is always attentive to our questions.

very happy with my stay in the apartment, and the communication with the host was very kind and collaborating. She was very flexible with the check-in time. I really recommend it.

Olivia went above and beyond to ensure we had a lovely stay - from getting a bathtub for our four month old to letting us check out later so we had a place to stay before the night flight. The apartment was great and location was perfection. We will definitely be back!

The stay was excellent, Carlos very attentive and the apartment was impeccable.
