Here at Casa MangoMango we love to help you select the best there is. Rio is such a diverse and wonderful city and our unrivalled local knowledge means we can tailor trips for every need.

On any one day you could be on a beautiful sun-kissed beach then in the Tijuca Rainforest or up at Corcovado (voted one of the Seven Wonders of the World) and then on to a night of live music or dancing with some of the amazing musicians this city breeds. There are abundant restaurants, juice bars and cafés everywhere. You name it, we can point you in the right direction.

Our aim is to personalize your visit so you’ll return home with a piece of Rio in your heart. And, we don’t just advise you where to go, we can even take you! We specialise in keeping up with the best music, the best places to dance, and can even organize dance classes for you! We can recommend the best in everything - from restaurants to favela tours -and the best people to take you too if need be.

  • Lapa

    For those itching to learn a few samba steps to show off when you get home or get lost in the sound of the cuica (an ingenious instrument that makes a squeaking noise) or indeed, just get lost for the night, we are just a stones throw away from the highly successful music and cultural area of Rio, Lapa. You can go out in Lapa for the night and be back home by taxi within 5 minutes.

SAFETY ALERT: Be aware of the old woman who’s quick to steal your shoes while you’re trying on beautiful, hand-crafted anklets . We don’t know whether she is in kahoots with the jeweller but our Australian guest’s boyfriend had to pay 10 reais to get them back.

 

  • Garden Lounge area

    This outside lounge must be the most popular area in the house. Good for relaxing and reading, good for socializing, good for listening to background music and amazing to look out at the mango trees and city beyond.

  • Samba Jam sessions

    Our musician friends swing by regularly, bringing their guitars and talents.
