Beachcombing is a fun activity the whole family can enjoy. So, why not take the children to Posto 9 to see what you can find strewn along the shore?

When you've finished at this stretch of coastline in Ipanema, why not check out Christ the Redeemer, Sugar Loaf Mountain, and Maracanã Stadium? They're not very far from Posto 9 and also a favorite with many travelers.

Breakfast menu was unparalleled. So many options on the buffet, all delicious, and the menu items are prepared to perfection. The staff is warm, attentive and kind. The property is beautiful, with superb design and attention to details, surrounded in lush greenery. The pool area is so luxurious, we didn't want to leave it. I would heartily recommend.
