Casa Cool Beans Guest House & Casa Cool Beans Ipanema Flats

Recommended Posts

Has anyone stayed at either of these places? They are gay owned and marketed to gays and highly recommended by Trip Advisor. The Guest House is in Santa Teresa; the flats are apartments in a building about 2 blocks for the gay beach in Ipanema.

They look very nice and the prices are reasonable. I booked stays at both for January 2014. No guests allowed.

Their prices for the Ipanema property seem a bit much to me. I just looked at a week-long stay in early August (low-season), and they wanted US $150/nt for the studios and US $175/nt for the 1-bedroom suites. That'd be an okay deal for a hotel (no breakfast, but free wi-fi), but definitely more expensive than renting an apartment (although not excessively so, for Ipanema). The "no guest" policy is a deal-breaker for me. I don't often bring guests back to my place while in Rio, but I definitely enjoy the freedom to do so. I just don't tolerate such policies.

That being said, mjd, the location is ideal (assuming the Ipanema metro station is reopened by your January 2014 trip), and the property looks lovely. I hope you have a wonderful time.
