Joá
Rio · Zona Sul & West

Joá.

Rio's quietest luxury address.

About the area

Gated cliff villas with infinity pools and a coastline you don't share with anyone.

The cliff between São Conrado and Barra. Gated, low-rise, and famously private.

Inventory is almost entirely villas — pools, ocean frontage, and the rare combination of seclusion and a 15-minute drive to Leblon. We have a handful of mandates here at any given time.
