Tranquil & Breathtaking Retreat

Everything was perfect, from our initial booking to the moment we sadly closed the door at the end of our stay. Prior to our arrival the owners, Francoise & Jorge, answered all of our questions. We were warmly greeted by Francoise to their lovely & spotlessly clean apartment. It was well equipped with everything that we needed. What a stunning view, even better than in the pictures. This is exactly what one would imagine when picturing historic Lisbon. The neighbourhood is quiet and charming, and we found all that we needed within easy walking distance, including groceries cafes, restaurants.& a laundry mat . We especially enjoyed Francoise's recommendation of a friendly & cozy little tapas restaurant just around the corner. Merci Francoise & Jorge for a truly memorable stay. We hope to return.

Beautiful little apartment - perfect location

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a week and had the best time. Francoise was a wonderful host and gave us great recommendations for activities around the city. View is really nice out from the juliette windows. Location is perfect for wandering around the chiado and alfama areas. Highly recommend staying here.

We stayed for 10 days in March and felt we hit the jackpot with this apartment. The apartment is modern and bright with great views overlooking the city. The location was great. You could reach so many attractions on foot or easily take public transportation. Francois responded quickly to any enquiries and was very helpful at suggesting areas to explore. We would not hesitate to come back.Book it. You will love your stay.

A room with a view

By the time you meet Jorge and François, at the door of a building covered in beautiful tile you will have already fell in love with the cobblestone streets, cascading buildings, tucked away cafes and hills of Lisbon. But after you walk up the stairs, you will see why you came. Through the door leading to your balcony you will see the terracotta crowns of city building and re-building it self. Massive cranes of new construction move in the distance while next to bells of cathedrals chiming, and all of them standing on medieval stones laid down by people an age ago. In short, if this all sounds new to you, then it sounds like what you need... at least that was my expiernce

Little Gem

We stayed here for 10 days in October. The apartment is in an old traditional building so no lift but don't let that put you off! The apartment itself is modern, light, very comfortable and well equipped. Huge windows/doors look out over facinating old areas of Lisbon. At all times of day and night the views are stunning. Once we got our bearings, we discovered what an excellent location the flat has. You can easily reach the metro, waterfront, Commercial Square and Time Out market on foot. Françoise was extremely helpful, responded quickly to enquiries and was a delightful person to meet. All in all a lovely place to stay whilst exploring the areas of Lisbon.

April in Lisbon

We were very happy with the apartment and impressed with our host. Great location and quiet street. We had told our host before we visited that we were interested in visiting bookstores during our stay and our host had a list of places to visit prepared when we arrived. A great little Tapas restaurant just a few doors away. A number of places for coffee and breakfast also nearby. A lovely wine shop just down the road. Apartment was clean, spacious and well appointed. Overall we can't say enough nice things about Lisbon and the apartment.

Sensational light

My second time to Lisbon and this unit stands out for its amazing, west facing, terra cotta tiled roof-view over the city and the huge glass window/doors that flood the unit in light. Cozy, comfortable and lots of fresh if you want it. It was a pleasure to have stayed 12 nights. Jorge and Françoise were helpful and accommodating. The only thing the kitchen needs is a good chef’s knife, for those that like to cook.

Perfect spot in Lisbon

I will start by saying Francoise and Jorge were perfect hosts, and the apartment was accurately represented in photos and the VRBO description. Those are two important factors for VRBO clients. My two-week stay was excellent. The apartment in on a quiet street in a bustling district. Excellent shops and restaurants are an easy walk from the apartment. Also, one of the best river overlooks is right around the corner. This place is an easy 10-minute walk to the river and Metro. Very central location. The apartment was really better than advertised. Francoise and Jorge didn't overlook any comfort. The bathroom includes a heated towel rack and mirror (the mirror doesn't fog up during a shower). The kitchen includes a dishwasher and state-of-the-art range. The balcony doors offer a breathtaking city view day or night. Guests climb a generous set of stairs to reach this apartment, which is on the third floor. In my last Lisbon apartment, the stairs were narrow and steep. Not these. They are more like US standards. Everything -- apartment, entry, stairwells -- was extremely clean and very well maintained. Francoise was timely with communication, most often answering texts within a few minutes. Check-in was effortless and welcoming. I felt like I had traveled to visit a friend by the time my stay ended. I would stay here again and again. The location and everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

Great Place

A very nice apartment in a quiet, convenient location. Nicely equipped for cooking in, but also walking distance to many bars and restaurants. Tram 28 is nearby. It is on the 3rd floor so stairs are a part of coming & going daily. But there is also a lovely 3rd floor view from large windows & doors. Great overall.

I highly recommend!

My spouse and I stayed for one week in this apartment during our two-week trip in Lisbon. The apartment is perfect for two people, was very clean when we arrived, and has everything you need to prepare food if you want to save on restaurants. My spouse was sick during our stay, so we couldn’t go very far. I mention this because we ended up spending more time in the apartment than was originally planned, and it was very comfortable. I didn’t have the opportunity to meet Jorge, but Françoise is a gem! I would not hesitate to go back!

Nice bright apartment in a good area

This is a great little apartment. It is bright, has big doors/windows that can open for fresh air. It is clean, has a comfortable double size bed, a nice bathroom and decently stocked kitchen. The location is good, feels safe and has some good restaurants nearby. Francoise is very accommodating and kind. There are many steep stairs that you must climb to reach this apartment so it is not appropriate for anyone with mobility impairments. We would definitely consider staying here again.

This place was truly a gem! It was surprisingly peaceful and quiet for being close to a busy street. The apartment was spacious and clean and had everything needed for a month’s stay. Francoise was wonderfully attentive and prompt with whatever we requested or needed information on. The best thing aside from the location and quiet were the beautiful view of the Lisbon rooftops and the sunsets! Would definitely recommend this apartment and hope to stay here again!
