Front and centre on Rio's famous beach, the Copacabana Palace is the Belmond answer to the question of where to stay in Rio de Janeiro. The pool is legendary; the rooftop views of the bay are extraordinary. The service is crisp and warm in equal measure, and the sense of occasion never diminishes. One of South America's truly great and enduring hotels.

8:27 AM
Breakfast in Brazil means acai, the country’s much-loved superfood topped with crunchy granola, fresh coconut and berries. Best eaten on the balcony.
10:03 AM
Start the day with a sandy stroll. It’s just so iconic. Catch a glimpse of Copacabana before the coconut-slinging, parasol-parading crowds roll in.
12:30 PM
Pergula serves up the classics – ceviche, bacalhau and chimichurri sirloin – in a quiet booth or by the pool.
2:39 PM
Ask Copacabana Palace to arrange a ride on Sugarloaf Cable Car for big old views of the city. Turn around and say olá to Christ the Redeemer!
4:11 PM
Grab a poolside or seaside lounge chair, lie back and relax – cool off with a splash and a cerveja or two.
6:58 PM
You’re in Brazil, so get lost in the beats of Bossa Nova. There are a handful of buzzy bars to hit over in Ipanema, just as the front desk, which one the locals go to. You’ll also need a caipirinha in hand.
8:30 PM
You can’t stay at a Belmond property without eating at Cipriani. Take a break from the feijoada and order the Michelin-starred tasting menu – the risotto cacciatore can’t be beat.
