Gil was very welcoming and his hospitality made me feel like home. We also had dinner together which he prepared. All in all a very good solution for solo travelers who want to dive into the local vibe of Rio.

Very welcoming host and the place is very small and cozy, so it’s never has many people which creates a family atmosphere ❤️ Good Wi-Fi, great location

The location is great, right near the beach. The house is clean and a relaxing inside to hang out and Gilberto, the host, is very warm and welcoming!

I had a wonderful time at Shamanic Home. It is very well located, a few minutes walk to the beach and to the metro. The building is safe. Gilberto is a great host, always available to help, answer any questions or just have a little chat. The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom is just amazing. I would recommend this place over and over and will come back :)

The location is wonderful, a short walk to the beach from of Ipanema. A busy neighbour full of shops and restaurants, all that you need. I felt very safe. The house was clean and spacious. 3 toilets and 2 bathrooms, a wonderful kitchen and the bed was very comfortable. The best property I have ever stayed in whilst travelling

Amazing experience. I’m travelling from 1 year, and here I felt like home. Clean and safe place. Wi-Fi is good, both toilet and shower perfect. But most of all, Gilberto and his wife are amazing human being, polite and they really take care of their guests. More than recommended

Wonderful home with genuine people from around the world, even cooked food for me when I wasn’t feeling well and really took care of me. There’s two bathrooms, the space is very nice in a central location and has two wonderful cats. Thanks, I will come back soon.

It's a home away from home. Gil was a wonderful host. Warm, generous and attentive. I felt very comfortable immediately and the hospitality and general tranquil vibe made it a great place to stay.

Gilberto and his wife are great hosts ! He’s very nice and radiant with good energy, which is very refreshing and motivating! I had an exceptional stay since I was the only guest, and so I had everything for myself ! The bed is comfortable, the kitchen is shared and is fully equipped, and the guest bathroom is really big and awesome ! The location within Ipanema is truly perfect, as it’s on short walking distances from the beach, various restaurants and bars, supermarkets, the Leblon shopping center, and metro station.
