This beautiful home is the latest addition to Rio Holiday's fabulous lineup of luxury vacation rental houses. This makes it only a short four minute walk to Itacoatiara beach. When completed this house was featured in a major Brazilian architectural magazine. The house is surrounded by nature on three sides, and a breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean and Itacoatiara on the 4th side, making this our most private offering. The property is located in a separate gated community that has just nine luxury homes.

Features Description

Constructed on top of the solid granite, the house has three main floors and three mezzanines. Entering from the street, you will pass by the first guest room that is actually under the swimming pool. Adjacent to this room is a very large steam sauna with a full bath. The next level is the churrasqueira and TV salon. This outdoor barbeque is under a grass covered gazebo and has a view terrace and a semicircular marble wet bar for serving that refreshing Brazilian favorite, the caipirinha. Inside is a comfortable TV salon and large entertainment and pool bathrooms. Outside, on the next mezzanine, is the private swimming pool. This pool is so in touch with nature that there is a huge granite boulder that is actually built into one side. The next level is the main living and dining rooms, featuring beautiful views of the beach and ocean.

Surrounding Description

This area is known for its very active surfing beach, which even hosts an international surfing competition. This area is more appealing to nature lovers. This beautiful beach is only short walk from the houses and can be seen from the properties. There is also a small cove that is popular with bathers where the granite forms a natural pool. There are lifeguards on duty, and the water and the beach are very clean. Itacoatiara is generally safe, although you should use normal beach precautions. At times during the weekday mornings, depending on the weather and the season, the beach can be virtually deserted - like having your own private island! On the weekends, it is generally very active, as well as any day when the weather is nice. Rio has literally dozens of beaches. In the Oceanic Region, where Itacoatiara is located, you will find the cleanest and least commercialized beaches with some of the best sand and surf.
