Furnished apartments in Curitiba

Curitiba is one of the most valued capitals in Brazil — according to the FipeZAP Index, the city’s square meter averages around R$ 11,600, and the capital ranks among the ten most expensive in the country, with an appreciation of over 6% in the last 12 months. Furnished rental prices vary widely depending on the neighborhood, size, and building standard: studios in intermediate areas start around R$ 2,000, while similar units in upscale neighborhoods range from R$ 3,000 to R$ 3,500. On average across the city, furnished apartments typically range between R$ 1,800 and R$ 4,500 per month, and high-end units with 2 or 3 suites in luxury towers in Batel, Ecoville, or Bigorrilho easily surpass R$ 6,000 to R$ 8,000 monthly.

Curitiba combines world-class urban infrastructure, higher-than-average national safety, and recognized quality of life — factors that support both demand and prices. The cost of living is around R$ 5,400 per person, and the city is especially attractive to relocating professionals as it combines urban planning, mobility, and a wide range of parks, gastronomy, and services.

Curitiba is a city of "micro-markets": each neighborhood has its own unique price range, demand, and lifestyle. For those relocating, the most sought-after addresses are:

• Batel — the upscale and gastronomic heart of the city, a corporate and fine dining hub, anchored by Shopping Pátio Batel. It has the most expensive square meter in the capital.
• Água Verde — the best balance between price and central location, with a peaceful residential atmosphere and diverse commerce; the top choice for many families.
• Bigorrilho / Champagnat — traditional, leafy, with a high density of well-equipped buildings and strong market liquidity.
• Ecoville (Campo Comprido) — modern, close to business centers and club-style condominiums, ideal for executives.
• Centro Cívico — near public institutions and offering a wide range of services and transportation options.
• Juvevê, Cabral, and Alto da Glória — established, valued residential neighborhoods, well-served and perfect for those seeking tranquility without giving up centrality.

All have easy access to the city’s main roads and to Afonso Pena Airport in São José dos Pinhais.

Yes. Shortstay makes income verification flexible for digital nomads, freelancers, foreigners, and legal entities. We accept bank statements, service contracts, proof of international payments, and income in foreign currency. We do not require a guarantor, cash deposit, or surety insurance. The entire process is digital, and approval is given within up to 2 hours — without the usual requirements of the traditional market, which typically asks for three pay stubs, a work ID, or income verified at three times the rent amount.

Seasonal platforms charge high daily rates, cleaning fees, and service charges that inflate the final cost for long stays. Shortstay offers a formal furnished rental contract in Curitiba with a fixed monthly rate, no extra fees, no charge for additional guests, and the possibility of tax domicile at the address. It’s the right choice for those staying 30 days or more who need contract stability, whether on a corporate assignment, an exchange program, or a permanent move to the city.

Yes. All Shortstay apartments in Curitiba are prepared for home office, with a work desk, ergonomic chair, high-speed fiber optic internet, and proper lighting for video calls. The properties are located in buildings with good signal coverage, and many feature internal coworking spaces, meeting rooms, and shared areas — an ideal combination for remote professionals and digital nomads, who find in Curitiba one of the best environments in the country for working remotely.

We recommend booking 15 to 30 days in advance. As one of the most sought-after capitals in the South of the country, Curitiba has a limited supply of quality furnished properties in the most sought-after neighborhoods and high turnover. Demand increases even more at the beginning of the year, during corporate relocations and the start of the university academic year, as well as during event, fair, and congress seasons in the city.

Yes, Shortstay accepts pets in most furnished apartments in Curitiba. Small and medium-sized dogs and cats are welcome, subject to condominium approval. Curitiba is an especially pet-friendly city, with a wide network of parks—such as the Botanical Garden, Barigui Park, Tanguá Park, and Japan Square—plus tree-lined streets, pet shops, and 24-hour veterinary clinics scattered throughout the neighborhoods.

Curitiba is recognized for its urban planning, safety, and quality of life. Mobility is one of its great differentiators: the BRT system and the integrated bus network allow quick travel without relying on a car. The city hosts leading hospitals and clinics, respected schools and universities, shopping centers, culinary hubs, and one of the largest concentrations of green areas in Brazil. For professionals and families relocating, it is a capital that offers complete infrastructure with a quieter pace of life compared to larger metropolises.
