Ipanema Mid-Century Modern Apartment – Ocean View 3-Bedroom Vacation Rental

This Ipanema mid-century modern apartment occupies a bright corner unit on the twelfth floor of one of Ipanema’s most iconic Oscar Niemeyer-designed buildings. Floor-to-ceiling wooden windows wrap the living space, framing panoramic views of the ocean and Ipanema’s mountains while flooding every room with natural light. Just two blocks from the sand, the apartment blends a rare design pedigree with the comfort and reliability today’s travelers expect.

Mid-Century Design Meets Modern Comfort

Owned and lived in by its host and only rented while he travels, the apartment is furnished with genuine Brazilian mid-century pieces, including a Sergio Rodrigues sofa and armchairs, paired with lush tropical plants and a large wood-and-crystal dining table. Forty-eight floor-to-ceiling windows keep the space breezy and dry, and the corner position delivers a sunrise-to-sunset show over the water. Additionally, powerful air conditioning and blackout curtains in every bedroom keep the apartment comfortable regardless of Rio’s heat.

Three Bedrooms and Two Full Bathrooms

The master bedroom has a queen bed with imported cotton linens, ocean views, and its own 50-inch Smart TV. A second bedroom also has a queen bed and a quiet, air-conditioned setting, while the third bedroom offers a double sofa bed for extra guests. Both bathrooms are spacious and modern, with oversized high-pressure showers and a bidet next to each toilet. In short, up to six guests can stay comfortably without feeling cramped.

A Marble Kitchen and Dedicated Workspace

Like the rest of this Ipanema mid-century modern apartment, the kitchen centers on a Calacatta marble table and comes fully equipped with a gas stove, dishwasher, large fridge and freezer, a built-in filtered water fountain, and a Nespresso machine for the morning brew. A separate home office area, furnished with a proper desk and a comfortable chair, connects to internet speeds of up to 700 Mbps, making the apartment just as suited to remote work as to a beach holiday. Meanwhile, an in-unit washer and dryer make longer stays effortless.

Steps from Ipanema Beach

This Ipanema mid-century modern apartment sits on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Ipanema, with a 24-hour doorman, keypad self check-in, and a police station on the corner that keeps the block among the safest in Rio de Janeiro. Restaurants, supermarkets, and gyms sit within two minutes’ walk, and Ipanema itself is consistently ranked among Brazil’s most walkable, iconic neighborhoods. Surfers can store their boards for free in the building’s ground-floor equipment room before the five-minute walk to Arpoador.
