What a nice place he has in the middle of the tropical forest - very peaceful place that I truly recommend. ##### Handerson Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bradford Sep 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a beautiful getaway in a very scenic area of Rio. The grounds are filled with native plants, and the birds and occasional monkey make it a virtual paradise. Our host Matteo is wonderful and makes sure your stay is truly enjoyable. Hope to return again and again! :) ##### Bradford Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mandy Feb 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Tuakaza is an amazing place to stay. Hospitality and amenities are 10/10. Breakfast is served, and there are many opportunities for relaxing. The scenery is beautiful, and the pool adds to the beauty. I would highly suggest Tuakaza to any traveler who wants to get away from the noise of the city, but still wants easy access to it. Matteo is very friendly and helpful at providing recommendations! ##### Mandy Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Dawn Mar 23, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness Wonderful views! , a once amazing property but now needs much T.L.C ! Decoration exciting , wood build house fantastic design , benefit from thorough deep clean , including pool areas outside too . Appreciate difficulty keeping clean as in jungle area (had mouse in room! ) but great to see monkeys on our balcony. For the price would also expect more breakfast variety (same for 3 days )but was a pleasure to greeted by friendly Mattao the host with great coffee each morning . ##### Dawn Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sergio May 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel resort in Rio de Janeiro that left a lasting impression on me and my wife. The building itself was designed by an architect who managed to imbue it with a sense of wonder that truly enhanced my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the stunning view that greeted me, and this feeling continued throughout my stay. One of the standout aspects of my stay was the incredible breakfast, which featured fresh fruit and was served with a view of the valley. The combination of delicious food and beautiful scenery was truly unbeatable. But what really made this hotel stand out was the service. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly, and their approach made me feel like I was staying at a friend's place rather than a hotel. ##### Sergio Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerstin and Sebastian Mar 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort INCREDIBLE AND UNIQUE STAY !

Both the design and location. But I think the best quality was how relaxing and homely the place felt, it really did feel like a luxury private home rather than a guesthouse. The views over Pedra da Gavea and Sao Conrado were breathtaking, and again Matteo was a fantastic and conscientious host. I can wholeheartedly recommend Tuakaza, and I personally would like to stay there again. Muito obrigado Matteo.
