About this property
Emerald Penthouse, serene, mysterious, under the spell of the Tijuca Forest.
The Emerald Penthouse
Escape to a private sanctuary where contemporary design, art, nature and absolute tranquillity come together.
The Emerald Penthouse offers two exceptionally spacious, quiet and ultra-comfortable suites, thoughtfully designed for complete relaxation. The generous living room opens onto breathtaking views and includes a dedicated workspace, making it equally suited for leisure or remote work.
One of the penthouse’s most distinctive features is its private spa area, centred around a unique “garden bath” supplied with pure mountain spring water flowing directly from the Tijuca Forest. Free from chemicals, it offers an immersive experience unlike any conventiona ofurô.
Step onto the expansive sun terrace and enjoy panoramic views stretching from the lush canopy of the Tijuca Forest to the Atlantic Ocean. Wake to birdsongs, breathe fresh forest air and experience a level of peace rarely found in one of the world’s most vibrant cities.
Located in the exclusive neighborhood of Barrinha, between Joá and Barra da Tijuca, the penthouse is surrounded by the world’s largest urban rainforest while remaining only five minutes from Barra da Tijuca Beach, renowned restaurants, shopping centres and outdoor activities.
Designed by Llan Valls of Switzerland™️, every space reflects a harmonious dialogue between architecture, art and nature offering Swiss style comfort. Natural light floods the interiors throughout the day, while floor-to-ceiling glass creates a seamless connection between the living spaces and the surrounding landscape.
Whether you seek a peaceful retreat, a sophisticated base for exploring Rio de Janeiro or an inspiring place to work remotely, the Emerald Penthouse offers a rare combination of extreme privacy, 5* comfort, elegance and natural beauty.
More than accommodation, it is an experience of living suspended between the Atlantic Forest and the sea.
