F.A.Q.
Do I need to make a reservation?
Yes, before visiting Banho Urbano you must make your reservation via WhatsApp, just click here. Currently, only people indicated by those who have been to Banho Urbano can enter. Massage sessions and other services must also be scheduled in advance.
The website says swimwear is not allowed. Does this mean all visitors will be naked?
Yup. In the bathing area all visitors will be naked. This is the best way to shower for many reasons. In a sauna session, for example, the body temperature increases evenly, without heating up more in regions covered by bathing suits. In addition, swimsuits, bikinis, swimming trunks and shorts are the perfect place for bacterias that end up being transferred to immersion baths.
Are there specific days or times for men and women?
No, we believe that we are all equal and should respect all bodies, regardless of gender. And it's worth repeating: Banho Urbano is not a sexual and behaviors in that sense will not be tolerated and punished by law.

Do you offer towels or robes?
Yes, we have towels and bathrobes for rental but you can also bring your own! You should ideally bring two towels, one for you to sit in the sauna and the other for drying off at the end of your visit. Bathrobes must be worn at the tea house for hygienic reasons.
