We stayed at Marta's guest house in early December '12. My husband had business elsewhere in Brazil, so I traveled to Rio on my own. Marta's guest house is a wonderful place to stay if you are a woman traveling alone. She is such a warm hostess, and immediately took me under her wing for the couple of days I... More

This was my first visit to Rio, and thanks to Marta, it was a very memorable one. Marta's 3-level penthouse apartment is located directly across the street from the beach in Copacabana. Fantastic location. While there I met people from Canada, Germany, the United States, Brazil, and Sweden. Marta is a great hostess, and threw a special party right after... More

We accidentally overlooked a large number of traveler checks in the back of... More

Objectively - Marta`s Guest House is the best and the most beautiful place to stay in Rio. The best one, beacuse it is situated on the beach of Copacabana, in the neighbourhood of many luxurious hotels. The most beautiful - because Marta has the lovliest house with the terrace opening the amazing view of the city. Memorable evenings on the... More
