Ilha da Gigoia is the best Rio has to offer. The boat crossings are a special treat. The authentic warmth of a community without dangers, the Barra attractions without pretentiousness and high prices. Oasis do Barral fits perfectly in the island. Of course if you want a “sophisticated” international hotel where you need a car or taxi to go anywhere, this is not for you.

The host is an absolute sweetheart, we were able to communicate via a translator app. The property usually requires to prepay one night via PIX (which is a local analog of PayPal), but since we didn’t have it, was flexible about it. The place is on an island and the vibe of island life is different from the big city, we loved it. Traveling with a ferry was no problem, you don’t usually wait for it longer than a few minutes and it’s not expensive, just have some cash ready (3 Real per person to the island or 6, if you wanna be dropped off closer to the property). We were able to leave our bags for the day before the flight. Breakfast (coffee and a sandwich) was a nice surprise and was delicious. There was a hummingbird feeder, so you have a good chance of seeing one. We would love to come again.

We loved the hosts Chris and Renata. Both were a pleasure to talk to and they made you feel right at home. Loved the area and very close to the train to the stature of Jesus.

The host was friendly and welcoming. The pousada is safe and secure and we arrived late at night. It's close to the airport and we stayed here twice. The breakfast was also great. It was a great price as well.

Great hostel in a a great spot, in Urca a very quiet and safe neighborhood. Andreas was a very welcoming and helpful host. The place itself has a pretty terrace and the breakfast was extraordinary, a vast choice of homemade products and individually prepared eggs. I would totally recommend it and I will come back when I am in Rio again.
