The Vila is a very special place, from the moment that you enter the property in every room and throughout the grounds you experience first class service and genuine hospitality. Yasmin is the essence of warmth and professionalism and the whole team makes the experience of staying at the Vila very special. We had stayed on Copacabana for the first part of our trip so this was another flavour of this wonderful city. Do yourself a favour and ask the hotel to arrange the car pick up and drop off at the airport it saves trying to find an uber or taxi and its handled perfectly.

Amazing views atop Santa Teresa
Stayed for a night to get a different experience of Rio. The villa is immaculate and rooms comfortable. Views of the city below are amazing. The staff are prompt and helpful. Booked a spa treatment which was followed by use of the glass steam room also overlooking the city below.
This villa is a converted house which is owned by a family with roots in Santa Teresa. The family was on site the day we stayed and were super friendly when they approached us.

Tranquility personified - my wife and I said the same thing about this place - it felt like the perfect setting for a romantic movie.
my wife really liked the remote location, it is super private and secure... that part was a little annoying, it might be too secure. I had a hard time getting Ubers but like I said my wife loved that.
5 star staff members - absolute class.
we got back 2 weeks ago and we are already planning to go back in 6 months.

This hotel canceled our rooms a few weeks prior to arrival, leaving us scrambling to find last minute accommodations with very limited options therefore having to pay inflated prices. Our party booked five of the rooms at this property for Carnival 2025 months in advance. A few weeks prior to check in, the property contacted us and cancelled all of our reservations. The hotel said they had a “maintenance” issue and needed to close down the entire property. Due to these cancellations during likely the busiest week for tourism in Rio, Carnival, we all had to try to find different accommodations with very limited options given Carnival was a few weeks away. Needless to say the prices were exorbitant for these last minute bookings. The hotel offered to transfer us to what seemed to be an inferior sister property in inferior rooms to what was booked - which we declined. Given the size of this property there are risks that don’t exist at larger, more established hotels. Maintenance issues, someone wants the entire property at a premium, etc these issues for a last minute cancellation are not a concern at larger properties, certainly not luxury hotels.

Villa Santa Teresa is an incredible dining destination. Tucked away in a hidden spot, it offers a spectacular view of Rio de Janeiro. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel incredibly welcome, giving us a brief tour of the property and sharing the fascinating history of the house. With only a few tables scattered across the garden and inside, the intimate setting made us feel right at home. If you’re looking for a private, exclusive dining experience—especially if you’re a celebrity or someone seeking a discreet spot—this is definitely the place to go! The food was outstanding, and the French-Brazilian fusion created by the head chef was both innovative and delicious. Villa Santa Teresa is absolutely a must-visit!

This property is unreal. Brings the old world with the new one. Grounds are unbelievable and the views even more so.
The staff is so friendly, accommodating and genuine.
The front desk, waiters , ground staff are all superbly trained.
Our first time in Brasil and will definitely e back within the year.
Thanks to all of the staff and the family that owns this paradise for sharing this with us .
