One of Rio's loveliest hostels, the Ipanema Beach House offers accommodation
in a converted two-storey house on one of Ipanema's most charming streets.
Staying here is very much like staying in a private Ipanema villa with 30
strangers who may just become your closest friends by the end of your
stay.
Attracting a fun but laid-back crowd, the Ipanema Beach House is
situated in two separate houses. The main house has six- and nine-bed dorm
rooms in the main house with two-toned wood floors and tall ceilings
adding character to the otherwise basic quarters. There's also a peaceful
veranda in front of the house, a lounge, a kitchen and plenty of space for
relaxing. A separate house behind the hostel houses three simple private rooms
for those seeking a bit more space or privacy. Between the two buildings is a
stretch of grassy lawn and an inviting swimming pool, with lounge chairs
scattered about. The pool, by our estimation, makes this place an incredible
find. Beyond the pool, there's also an
outdoor bar, where travellers can
exchange neighbourhood tips or surf tales over caipirinhas in the evening.
