Casa Mama Ruisa

Location

Santa Teresa (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)

Description

An elegant guesthouse tucked in the hills above Rio within the bohemian Santa Teresa neighbourhood, overlooking Guanabara Bay. Originally a traditional family mansion, Mama Ruisa has been immaculately refurbished and there is a charming open plan dining and sitting room with high ceilings and clean walls, ringed by a veranda with excellent views over the city. Stairs lead down to a pretty garden and pool.

Accommodation

There are 7 immaculate rooms offering a blend of classic colonial design with modern, light touches and décor.

Our comments

An excellent option within the cobbled streets of Santa Teresa, although set back from Rio's beaches and traditional highlights. Ideal for second visits to Rio or for those looking to relax in the quieter, colonial district well away from the city's busy centre.
