CLIFFSIDE - Boutique Hotel & Spa

Perched in Joatinga on Rio de Janeiro’s west side, a boutique hotel & spa minutes from Joatinga Beach. A short drive puts you at Praia da Barra da Tijuca, Ipanema and Copacabana, with Tijuca National Park and the Botanical Garden close by. Pet-friendly and tucked into a quiet stretch near the shore.

A small luxury hideaway with just five air-conditioned rooms. Rooms feature minibars, Smart TVs, safes, blackout curtains and daily housekeeping. Expect a boutique, spa-forward vibe and concierge service to keep things easy.

Pamper yourself with onsite massages, body treatments and facials at the spa. Relax by the outdoor pool, rent a bicycle to explore nearby beaches, or fire up the picnic and barbecue areas. Book tours at the desk and enjoy sea-proximate mornings and ocean-ready air.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet throughout the property. Practical services include dry cleaning and laundry, luggage storage, a front-desk safe-deposit box and a concierge. Free self-parking onsite and a 24-hour roundtrip airport shuttle available for a surcharge.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve local flavors, with reports of buffet and cooked-to-order breakfast options and room service during limited hours. Note that dining venues and the bar may be closed seasonally or on several weekdays, so check current hours before you go.
