We feel quite lucky to have found Casa Caminho do Corcovado, Helena, Diogo, and Valeria. I emailed Helena directly to inquire about a room in Rio. She always responded quicky and answered all my questions and concerns. My husband and I met our daughter (who is studying in Sao Paulo) in Rio for the first weekend of our trip to... More

My wife and I stayed one week in Helena's home in the Corcovado room. We traveled to Rio to pick up our son who had been serving as a missionary. When our son was able to join us, the Corcovado room comfortably accomodated three. From the moment we landed at the airport, Helena's son, Diogo, was there with a sign... More

Casa Caminho do Corcovado is a wonderful place run by great people! We stayed in the Corcovado room and bungalow, which are spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated. The former even includes a view of Christ the Redeemer. Just a few minutes away from the Corcovado train station, the beautiful house is located in a nice green neighbourhood with gorgeous views....

I stayed in one of the Toucan rooms at the Casa Caminho do Corcovado B&B for 6 nights and I enjoyed every minute of my visit. Helena, her son Diogo, and Valeria are the perfect hosts and they really make you feel at home. Casa is located on a hill on the edge of the Tijuca park reserve in the... More

I read all the positive reviews before we went to Casa Caminho do Corcovado. My high expectations were more than fulfilled. Absolute gem. Breakfast is amazing, the service is impeccable, room is absolutely spotless, the area is safe and quiet (even though you are in a very big city) and there is a taxi stand/bus stop nearby so getting around...

Had a wonderful stay at Casa Caminho do Corcovado over the Rio Carnival period. Helena has a lovely property which is beautifully furnished and so comfortable that myself and the other guests found it difficult to drag ourselves away from it each morning … it was certainly very difficult to say “goodbye” at the end of my week-long stay. The... More

We had such a wonderful stay at Casa Caminho do Corcovado. The location of the house was perfect for us---away from the intensity of the city but just a quick cab ride to all the main attractions. My husband and I were on our belated honeymoon and Helena recommended the detached cottage for our four day stay, and we loved... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in March 2012 and it was wonderful. There is a taxi stand and bus stops at the bottom of the hill so getting around town is very easy and not very expensive. Helena helped us with the bus routes, so you can act like a local even if you don't speak any Portuguese! Also... More

Beautiful old villa turned B&B on edge of forest next to Corcovado tram station. Surrounded by trees, bamboo & greenery. Birds & monkeys in the trees, quiet comfortable lawn & porch to relax on. Helena was a perfect hostess, recommending sights, restaurants & beaches. We took taxis from the B&B but a nearby square had buses to all parts of... More
