About
O Veleiro Bed And Breakfast
O Veleiro Bed And Breakfast is a small guesthouse set in a quiet corner of Rio de Janeiro, with a tropical garden and a pool that make it easy to unwind after time in the city. Rooms are simple but comfortable, with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi, and the outdoor areas – from the sun terrace to the garden seating – are designed for relaxation.
Breakfast is the highlight here: guests regularly mention fresh fruit, eggs, local treats like tapioca, and the personal touch of the hosts. The B&B is also well positioned for exploring the beach area, with Botafogo beach about a 25-minute walk away and plenty of food options within walking distance.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited reception hours — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 20:00, so you'll need to plan your arrival carefully.
- Early check-out — Check-out must be done between 08:00 and 11:00, which may feel early for some guests.
- No pets — The property does not allow pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
- Not right on the beach — It's about a 25-minute walk to Botafogo beach, so you'll need to factor in travel time if you want to be right on the shore.
