Rio continues to be a desired destination for the most fortunate. There is no shortage of excellent properties to spend a short season, with daily rates that reach 64 thousand reais.
In Rio, many houses, penthouses, and mansions where only one bathroom can be more oversized than many houses offer stays for daily values ??that exceed R$ 10 thousand. These are luxury properties intended for seasonal rental. “Avenida Atlântica, the houses in Santa Teresa and Joá are the favorites of these unique customers. São Paulo people prefer Vieira Souto and Delfim Moreira. However, foreigners are fanatical about Copa and Santa Teresa “, says Nelson Borges, a realtor specializing in luxury real estate, from Sergio Castro Imóveis.
Some of these residences are over 700m², four floors high, and have many luxurious suites, apart from the decoration and the look (much of these properties are in the South Zone or Santa Teresa). Even though it is an unimaginable reality for most people in Rio, this slice of the luxury home market does not seem to have suffered much from the pandemic. People from all over the world – and wealthy Brazilian tourists – choose to relax in a unique property.
Faced with the health crisis, where everyone was deprived of traveling and going out, Rio residents opted for more “homey” alternatives when having fun. Among them are the rental of houses (including luxury ones) and “day use.” It was evident that these properties are rented fully furnished and with bedding, table, and bath.
