The Reveal

Near LGBTQ+ SceneCozyGreat for Fitness LoversInsta-WorthyCentral location

My studio apartment is super cozy. I offer my comfortable bed so you can rest well during your trip. The building has a swimming pool, sauna and gym. The location is excellent, everything is close by - bars, restaurants, gyms, parks, museums. It's right in the middle of Higienópolis and Santa Cecília. Ideal for those coming to São Paulo for a stroll, or even for some work commitments.

Nearby Attractions

Some tips on what to do in the neighborhood:

If you like to have breakfast out, I recommend the traditional and classic Baronesa bakery. If you like a cooler place, I recommend the Mug coffee shop on Rua Barão de Tatui (there are several other nice cafés there).

For lunch, there's the famous Conceição Discos. Jhony's is that famous bar that serves PF and everyone goes there. I also recommend Prainha (more of a bar with snacks), the Arab restaurant Majâz and the Israeli Jaffa (vegetarian). As you walk around Santa Cecília, you'll discover many restaurants of different styles and tastes.

If you love ice cream, there are two excellent ice cream parlors: Glidah, which is just around the corner, and Cangote - which has some very special ice cream with northern fruits.

If you're looking for a night out, check out Cabaret Santa Cecília and Jerome. There's also Susie Wong, on the Barra Funda side, but it's close by.

To rest and relax your mind, take a walk and sit on the grass at Parque Buenos Aires. It's very close and super pleasant.

Looking for a cultural program?

This is next door to Paço das Artes (there's always a cool exhibition there) and it's next to Pátio Higienópolis, which is close by and has everything too.

I also recommend going to the Pinacoteca and Masp - which always have excellent art exhibitions. You can take a bus from Avenida Angélica or Miconhão and you'll be there in no time. Or you can take the subway to Marechal station (one block from the apartment), or even an Uber.

And for other tips, you can ask me!

Host recommendations

Welcome to my home! A cozy studio apartment close to the best places in São Paulo. I'm a vegetarian (I eat cheese, egg and butter), so I wouldn't want you to make any meat dishes at home. Otherwise, feel free! The kitchen is small, but you can cook small meals and even lunch. And of course, we'll keep the kitchen clean and organized.

Staying with Rafael was fantastic. He is an excellent host, very welcoming, and the apartment is very well located, with a nearby metro station to facilitate getting around. I recommend staying with him. I definitely already have my favorite place to stay when I return to São Paulo.

Rafael was such a good host, and the place was lovely. Very well located and in a very nice area. Rafael and I managed to go for a drink a couple of days and gave me lots of recommendations, which is why I decided to stay with a local!

I had a brief stay in Sao Paulo and was hosted by Rafael. He was a great host, reached out ahead of time to make sure I find his place, gave me lots of good information about where to go, even took time to hang out. Overall I had a great time and would definitely stay at his place again.

I had such a wonderful experience staying here, and a big part of that was thanks to Raphael. From before I even arrived, he was incredibly engaged and attentive, checking in regularly and making sure I had everything I needed. His communication was warm, thoughtful, and genuine — you can really tell he cares about his guests and takes pride in what he does. He went out of his way to share recommendations and tips, which made settling in so much easier and helped me enjoy the area more fully. The space itself had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, and the thoughtful touch of leaving beverages for me was truly appreciated — it made me feel very welcomed. Although I didn’t get the chance to meet Raphael in person, his presence was felt throughout my stay through his kindness and attention to detail. It’s rare to come across a host who strikes such a perfect balance between being available and giving you space. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-hosted place with a genuinely caring host

Rafael is one of favorite hosts ever. He became a real friend during my trip. His home is the perfect location and clean and cozy. I can't wait to see Rafael again on my next trip.
