A Collector’s House, Open to Rio.

After more than twenty years welcoming travelers to Santa Teresa, Jean-Michel Ruis opens the doors to a more personal chapter.

Maison Mama is a collector’s house where architecture, Brazilian modernist design, contemporary art and the Carioca way of living come together.

Every room, every artwork and every piece of furniture reflects a lifetime of encounters—with artists, architects, collectors and creative minds who continue to shape Brazil’s cultural landscape.

More than a place to stay, Maison Mama is an invitation to experience Rio through a different perspective.

Here, luxury lies in intimacy, authenticity and a deeper connection with the city.

The language of the house continues in every room.

Within the master suite, pieces by Jorge Zalszupin and Sergio Rodrigues quietly extend the story of Brazilian modernism.

Collected over time.
Lived with every day.

The living room tells the story of a lifelong appreciation for Brazilian modernism.

Furniture collected over decades sits exactly where it belongs: in daily life.

To be shared.
To be lived with.

Meet Jean-Michel Ruis.

For more than twenty years, Jean welcomed travelers from around the world at Mama Ruisa, his boutique hotel in Santa Teresa.

Maison Mama marks a more personal chapter—one shaped by the artists, designers, objects and encounters that have influenced his way of seeing the world.

Among them, Jean Cocteau, whose work Jean has long admired.

This personal collection of references is woven throughout Maison Mama, turning the house into an expression of its host as much as a place to stay.

Welcome to Jean’s world.

Summer in Rio is best lived outdoors.

Morning coffee by the pool.
Long afternoons in the shade.
Evenings that stretch a little longer.

At Maison Mama, the terrace becomes another living room—open to the garden, the breeze and the rhythm of the city.

One of the quiet luxuries of staying in a private home.

A morning swim before the city wakes.
A refreshing dip after the beach.
A slow afternoon beneath the Rio sun.

At Maison Mama, the pool isn’t just an amenity—it’s part of the rhythm of the house.
