Vila Santa Teresa RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL
Hailed as one of Rio de Janeiro’s most charming neighbourhoods, Santa Teresa is characterised by regal mansions set along cobbled streets. A cultural centre, Santa Teresa encapsulates scenic parks, artists’ ateliers and acclaimed restaurants. In the heart of this bohemian district, encircled by lush greenery, Vila Santa Teresa is a luxury boutique hotel located in a 21,000-acre private urban oasis. Vila Santa Teresa, initially built as the Monteiro
de Carvalho family residence, was renovated in 2017, resulting in a unique fusion of historical tradition and modernity. The hotel’s signature suites are welcoming and sophisticated, and all rooms are generously spacious and elegantly furnished. The suites are filled with natural light and their
large balconies offer guests exceptional views, including Sugarloaf Mountain, Guanabara Bay or the hotel’s garden with its century-old mango tree. The master suite features floor-to-ceiling glass doors that lead to a balcony with panoramic views of the glittering city and the iconic Christ the Redeemer. This lavish suite also features an elegant en-suite bathroom bedecked in rare Carrara marble.
The hotel’s restaurant, Beatriz, has a seasonally
changing menu that features traditional Brazilian dishes prepared using French culinary techniques. The on-site vegetable garden also supplies freshly grown, organic herbs and greens. For Sunday brunch, guests can taste a range of delicacies in the restaurant’s sophisticated atmosphere. In addition to a steam room and outdoor pool,
the spa at Vila Santa Teresa provides a range of personal and luxurious wellbeing treatments. Taking a unique approach to natural skincare and aromatherapy, the spa sees modern aesthetic techniques delicately intertwined with nature to offer guests a relaxing escape. Vila Santa Teresa is the ideal gateway to the
natural wonders of Rio de Janeiro. The team is dedicated to curating personalised and carefully designed experiences across the estate — from a romantic candlelit dinner in a private gazebo to a 5am breakfast overlooking the city while a private chef cooks with fresh ingredients. The hotel offers meticulously designed experiences to transform every encounter into a memorable moment.
