My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights at the end of a South American tour. It was the highlight of the trip. To summarise: 1. The room was large with a fabulous view over the city. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom luxurious (great walk in shower and separate bath). 2. Breakfast is excellent with fresh fruit,... More

After having already visited rio and having done the sites at the start of the trip, Um Meia Tres was the perfect spot to finish off our trip. A beautiful house with high ceilings, parquet floors , and amazing garden with a pool topped terrace overlooking the city. Bill and Sue are great hosts and full of knowledge about where... More

We stayed at Um Meia Tres for 11 nights in November, 2010, and are rewriting this review as the overall rating was mistakenly entered as 3 stars. We had a really enjoyable stay here and would certainly recommend this pousada to friends and family. Our room was very comfortable and spotless and our balcony had an incredible view of the... More

An oasis of calm in bustling Rio! Amazing views from our balcony and the room was spotless and comfortable. Excellent leisurely breakfasts on the terrace were a perfect start to the day. Superb recommendations from Bill and Sue about what to see and how to best to get there helped us make the most of our stay in Rio. More

I am lucky to have been invited to some LEGENDARY barbeques (churrascos) at Bill and Sue's pousada. Owners Bill and Sue are friendly and professional. Everything is clean and well kept. The garden up top is a great place to sit and relax. Each room is cozy, comfortable. You can serve yourself at the bar and it's location is Santa... More

My husband and I stayed at Bill & Sue's pousada in Santa Teresa, Rio as the first stop on our honeymoon in Brazil in November. We had an amazing time, despite the less than favourable weather in Rio while we were there! Both Bill & Sue were extremely helpful in giving us advice in getting around and what to do.... More

We stayed there on our way to Santiago and again on our return, the location is great, away from the hustle &... More

When we travel to larger cities we prefer staying at locations in a residential community over the tourist trap hotels. We found Um Meia Tres based on the solid reviews it has received from previous visitors. It did not disappoint. Bill and Sue make the perfect hosts and have a well appointed modern home in an older neighborhood with great... More
