Coliving Season: All year round

Located in Rio’s most artistic and authentic neighborhood. Perched above the city, it’s the kind of place where creativity flows as easily as the caipirinhas.

The house has 10 rooms, a mix of ensuite and shared bathrooms, with both AC and non-AC options. The bright kitchen and living area open onto a lush garden with stunning city views, perfect for working in the shade or catching golden hour with new friends.

Artsy, homey, and full of upcycled character, this space feels like a stunning local guesthouse reimagined for nomads.

A dedicated coworking space with A/C and city views is also in the works. Stay tuned!

Community

We are all about community vibes and intentional connections.
Typical residents? Think remote workers, creatives, solopreneurs, and curious souls from around the globe who value meaningful experiences over mass tourism. They come with laptops and open minds—ready to work hard, share meals, swap ideas, and dive into new cultures.

Whether it’s jamming out a project in the coworking space, joining a spontaneous beach bonfire, or co-hosting a potluck dinner, guests are here to both focus and connect. It’s the kind of place where strangers turn into friends, and your next adventure might just start over coffee.
