Further details for this holiday rental in Recife, Brazil

Piedade Beach and Boa Viagem Beach form one single 7-mile beach. From Edifício Marlin (the apartment), there is a sidewalk/walking path that extends north the entire 7-mile length of the two beaches. Typically at high tide people use the walking path; at low tide, most walk on the beach itself. You will find this apartment to be an excellent choice and an excellent value. Contact us to reserve your vacation in the sun.

Review Submitted: March 27, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
We have traveled in Brazil off and on for a number of years, and recently returned from Reciefe, which turned out to be one of our most pleasurable trips. Having passed briefly through the city some years ago, and liking what we saw, we thought it might be a good place to kick back and relax for a while.
Before leaving the states, we arranged to rent Bob and Dalva's Beach Apt, for a month. Bob has an excellent online presentation of the property, but words and photos simply don't do it justice. The Apt. Is spacious, immaculate, and has a wonderful sea breeze coming through the windows, not to mention "Drop Dead" views of the Beachfront and city.
Equally impressive are "The Host's". Besides being professional in every way, Bob, Dalva, and their family are great people, and went well out of their way to make us feel comfortable, as well as giving assistance in finding anything we needed in the city during our stay. We highly recommand if you are planning a trip to Reciefe to really consider this property to ensure a secure and worry free vacation.
Do feel free to call if we can answer any question concerning this property.

Sincerely,

Homer Herndon

We were a family of five who rented Bob and Dalva's place for one week. We were extremely pleased with the appartment, the view and the maid. Bob was helpful and attentive to our needs. The appartment was clean, bright, spacious and well equipped. We would highly recommend this appartment.

Million dollar views from every window. Right on the beach! Bob and Dalva made you feel like family from the moment you arrive. Newly renovated to a high western standard. Already looking forward to my return in the spring.
