If you PM me, I will send you the number of my landlord.
I will post it here, but I am not sure if it will be deleted by our faithful moderator.
In airbnb or other similar just look for address av gastao senges 395, and Mediterraneo Flats or Transamerica.

Is anybody returning to the US from Brazil required to quarantine for 14 days? It's required by the CDC but is it enforced?

The workers will tell you if there are clouds, so you may want to go to Sugarloaf instead. And the interiors of the St. Benedict monastery are shouldn't be missed IMHO.

Posts: 2235I like being a block from the beach, and so do the many who are at Transamerica.
It is not just the bar here, it is Av Gastao Senges 185 for lunch, dinner, and the stroll in between.
In the beginning there was karlamodels, and it was good. You could stay at Motel Malaga or Motel Barao do Flamengo, and the girls would stroll from their agency, Karlamodels or the other I forgot.
You can do the same at Transamerica.
You look for the girl on the sites.
barraviprio.com
Photoaccompantes.
And you go to their room or vice versa.
OK, I will concede it is probably better for first time Brazil trip persons to be in Zona Sul proper, but I am saying it is possible for the adventurous first timer to stay in Transamerica.
In any case, I have Nina Deponca over tonight.
I don't get anything for promoting Transamerica, I don't own stock or anything. And I was just taking a tip from safado69. I'm not getulio Vargas, just another gringo.
They're cleaning the pool, so hope springs eternal.

I would gladly stay the rest of the winter with the exchange rate being what it is, but changed my flight to get back in the USA on the 25th, just in case something ridiculous like a test result positive for covid, or some other more restrictive rule change gets put into play. By the way, United still has open seats in Polaris, but they're not likely to last much longer.

Posts: 1535Places to take a covid test in Rio?
After January 26th, everyone (including American citizens) must have a negative Covid test in order to enter the USA. Does anyone know where in Rio, you can take a rapid test? (I think the results have to be under 72 hours). If you test positive, I assume you must be quarantined in Brazil until you test negative.
Testing positive is going to suck for people who can't work remotely and must cover room and board for 2-3 weeks. We won't even mention the torture of seeing hot girls every day and knowing that you can't indulge because you are supposed to be quarantined.

Stick to the tried and true when doing tourist stuff. Corcovado (the Christ statue) is a must in my opinion. Sugarloaf Mountain is fine, but if you choose one choose Corcovado. I like taking the old tram up to the old Santa Teresa neighborhood above Centro for lunch. Bring a date! She will be impressed. If I remember right, some restaurants have views. The now well-known Selaron Steps are in Santa Teresa. The Lapa Arches and the Modern Cathedral are all near where the Santa Teresa historic tram line begins.
Secondary recommendations: The modern Rio Cathedral, the Sambadrome, Niteroi Contemporary Art Museum (a bit far). If you like old cafes you can go to Confeitaria Colombo before hitting Termas 4 x4.
As other members are guiding, prime time at Termas seems to be from 5-6 pm to about 9-10 pm. Their bread and butter clientele (especially outside Copa and Ipanema) tend to be businessmen who drop by after work. They tell their wives and girlfriends they are going out with work colleagues. That is partially true because the locals tend to make termas a social thing with work buddies. They don't mind foreigners.
I would advise hitting up 4 x4 on a Friday evening. You know the girls will have Saturday and Sunday off as 4 x4 is closed.
