Description of Surrounding Area
Considered as the entrance to the Lakes and Beaches Region, Maricá is one of the most beautiful cities in the State of Rio de Janeiro.
Without a doubt, it is blessed with natural beauties – from gently rolling hills to unique mountain peaks; from a canal to four interconnected lakes; from the Atlantic Ocean to 45 kilometers of white sandy beaches; from verdant meadows to a town center that continues to show growth and positive changes.
It is about an hour from the famous city of Rio de Janeiro, world-renowned beaches such as Copacobana, Ipanema, Flamengo, Botafogo and Cabo Frio, the Rio international airport, and the must-see tourist attractions Statue of Christ and Sugar Loaf Mountain where one is confronted with breathtaking and incomparable sceneries. It is only 35 minutes from its neighbor city Niteroi, which has a population of over 1,000,000 people.
Maricá, a city of 75,000 people, is a very safe, laid back, and tranquil beach-town location. Maricá is large enough to have all the things you will need from day to day, yet small enough to alleviate all of the headaches of city traffic and high tourist prices. Being only one hour away from Rio, many successful business owners, politicians, and retirees make Maricá the ideal place for a get-away home, retirement home, or an investment that you can rent out for income and enjoy now.
On a normal day, here in Maricá, the beach will be very peaceful and quiet and rarely fills up with people, except during the celebration of Carnival. With all of the sights, tourist spots, beautiful beaches, and entertainment of Rio, you will never get bored here.
Maricá is a quiet coastal town where unhurried life is the norm. It is a place of immense natural beauty and nice, friendly people. Large enough to have the amenities you would need on a daily basis, Maricá is just the right size not to have the hassles of city traffic and high tourist prices. With a population of over 90,000 people, Maricá is a small city with lots of great things to offer.

There is a grassed area infront of the house where you can lay down a towel and rest here facing sea views and cooling breezes.

Cute, fun, friendly, beautiful.. what more can i say? Its a beach house for this cheap! This area is so undescovered and non touristy that you really do feel like you are in brazil. i made so many friends and felt like a local celebrity walking around the streets. Everyone wanted to know and meet me it was great. The house is cute and right on the beach and loved falling asleep and waking up to the sounds of the waves. Thanks again.
