We don`t have many good experiences at hotels, even the 5 stars. We went to Italy and Australia and we`ve stayed at hotels - It`s amazing how everything is so expensive and unconfortable - So, we`ve decided to rent a place to stay. We were 4 people. Me and my wife and a couple of friends and we were trying to get a big apartment or house, so we could stay together. After a lot of research we`ve found a perfect place. The place was big enough to accomodate 4 couples. It has 4 suites with king size beds, a large terrace, a pool... Very luxury. It was the first time I`ve bought (or rented) something through the internet. I was concerned in the begining but after I`ve read the contracts I was ok. We were plenty satisfied with the penthouse and the guest services wich were offered to us. I didn`t miss the Hotels not for a single moment, actually we`ll try to find an apartment or a house to rent every time we plan our future vacations. The hosts are just amazing. Thanks for everything. It was our first time in Brazil and they were very friendly showing us the best of Rio.

It is also one of my favourite places. Since you had such a great time why not write some stories about it. If your friends wish to advertise on Globo I suggest they contact admin regarding an advertising package as web and email adresses are not allowed in the forum. Regards, Kerrie --- Where to next?
