Three buildings, named after Brazilian artists, on São Conrado's sand.
About the building
Condomínio Praia Guinle in brief.
Praia Guinle sits on a 13,000 m² oceanfront lot that once belonged to the Guinle family — one of Rio's most storied industrial dynasties. The condominium's 15-story buildings are each named after a Brazilian artist: sculptor Bruno Giorgi, painter Manabu Mabe, and sculptor Ascânio MMM. Direct beach access, ocean ahead, Pedra da Gávea behind.
Apartments run 222 to 1,094 m², three- to four-bedroom plates with up to three suites. São Conrado's relative privacy — lower density than Zona Sul, contained by the Atlantic, Pedra da Gávea and the Rocinha hillside — has kept Praia Guinle one of the most consistent oceanfront addresses in Rio.

Construction began in the early 1980s and the condominium delivered in 1985, on land that had been Guinle family property — the same family behind Copacabana Palace and much of Rio's early-20th-century industrial fortune.

The buildings were named after Brazilian modernist artists — Bruno Giorgi (sculptor, Os Candangos in Brasília), Manabu Mabe (Japanese-Brazilian painter), and Ascânio MMM (sculptor) — a deliberate cultural statement at delivery.

Significant infrastructure modernization through the 2010s, including elevator replacement, generator installation, and full facade restoration. Common areas retain the 1980s architectural language.
Frente unit, 3BR. São Conrado occupancy runs lower than Ipanema but the higher nightly + lower HOA-per-m² close the gap on net yield.

Brazilian industrial & cultural figures
The Guinle family origin and artist-named buildings attracted a cultural-industrial owner mix from delivery onward.
International oceanfront-only buyers
A specific profile — Rio oceanfront with low density and named-block prestige — has driven a steady foreign owner base over four decades.
