Home to world-famous beaches and an impressive cityscape, Rio de Janeiro is one of Brazil’s most popular tourist destinations. If you’re planning a trip here, you’ll likely be considering a variety of accommodation options. Here’s why we think you should choose a vacation rental over a hotel.
1. More Space and Amenities
A vacation rental will offer you significantly more space than a hotel room. This is especially important if you’re travelling with a group or have kids. You’ll also have access to a kitchen, which can save you money on meals.
2. More Flexibility
Hotels are often booked solid during peak season in Rio. If you’re looking for more flexibility in your travel plans, a vacation rental is the way to go. You’ll also have a wider selection of rental properties to choose from.
3. More Authenticity
When you stay in a vacation rental, you’ll get a chance to experience Brazilian life like a local. This is a great way to save money and learn about the culture.
4. Better Value
Hotels in Rio can be quite expensive, especially during peak season. A vacation rental will typically offer better value for your money.
