About this property

A Great View in Town

This apartment is truly in the perfect location – slightly away from the hubbub of the historical centre, but close enough to walk there and to the famous avenida da Liberdade as well as Restauradores and Rossio squares. On your way back you can enjoy the oldest lift in Lisbon (1884), the "elevador da Lavra". Perfect for a quiet break while sightseeing.
Located on a high floor of a building with a lift, it has a fantastic view of the whole town, out to the Tagus River and Sao Jorge Castle. The neighbourhood is composed by a beautiful public garden with bars and restaurants around and is very well served by public transports to many places in town.
The apartment is classically elegant and very comfortable. You will feel immediately at home here, with its tasteful décor creating a warm and welcoming athmosphere. The living room is filled with light, with large windows and a wraparound balcony where you can enjoy the view. The kitchen is very modern and impeccably equipped.
The layout is the following: living room with lounge and dining area, two balconies, bedroom 1 (double bed, ensuite bathroom – bathtub and toilets, bedroom 2 (twin beds), bedroom 3 (twin 90 beds), shower room (shower and toilets).
Linens, sheets and towels are provided. The beds will be freshly made on arrival.

Wonderful location, stunning views

Marco and his wife are wonderful hosts. I do not believe that there is a better view of the castle and the bay than from their 5th floor apartment. Opposite the apartment is a nice park. It is surrounded by great restaurants, the area is quite nice. There is a breakfast place across the street that serves yummy breakfasts. The location is great. The apartment is clean and spacious, we would stay there again.

The absolute best

Where do we begin? The place is a real treasure for people who admire art and antiques and quality surroundings. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable. There are two grocery stores close by and a lovely park across the street. And the best view in town. High quality windows that keep the city traffic noise to a minimum. We have stayed in countless VRBOs and we all agree this was the best. Coming from four women with high standards, that is saying a lot. We wish we were staying longer.

Wonderful stay!

The apartment was beautifully furnished and clean. Be sure to check out the wonderful book collection and artwork. The view from the front windows is spectacular with views of the old Moorish fort and the Tagus. Check in was easy. Our host provided a lovely bottle of wine, some cheese and crackers and a supply of coffee. There is a grocery market literally two doors away and several interesting restaurants within walking distance. Our visit coincided with a spell of unusually hot weather. However there are sun screens on the windows which help keep the heat out and ceiling fans in each bedroom and once the sun sets there is a cooling breeze available if you open the windows in the living room and kitchen. Beds were very comfortable and Marc fulfilled our request for feather-free bedding. We would happily return to the apartment on our next trip to Lisbon.

Great Views in Lisbon

My family really enjoyed our visit to Lisbon. Host met us at the property and was great. He went out of his way to offer restaurant suggestions and walk us thru his villa. We had a great visit and the home was very comfortable. We hit Lisbon at what I expect was the hottest 3 days of the year so we were a touch warm but expect the windows and fans do trick 99% of the year. Also, the views are really amazing.

What a week in Lisbon! First time and apartment was perfect. Travelled with family of 6 and had room

Apartment was fantastic! Plenty of room for family of 6. Great location. Kids really enjoyed park across the street. No AC and a little hot during the day but it was summer. Cooled off perfectly in the evenings.

Loved the place

spacious property with stunning furniture. Great view. Old world layout with public spaces at the entry and bedrooms down the hall with the kitchen at the far end of the hall. Our keys did not work to open the front door so make sure they work at check in. Well stocked kitchen. two elevators to take you to the rooftop for drinks.

Best VRBO we have ever stayed in!

This apartment was immaculate and gorgeous. Between the location, the views, the art and the amazing hosts, nothing could have been better. I wouldn’t change a thing. I can’t wait to go back to Lisbon and stay here again. The hosts gave us so much information about the area and restaurants and recommendations of things to do, it made the experience 100 out of 10 stars.

Apartment and view that can’t be beat in Lisbon

We enjoyed everything about our stay, from the advance communication, to check-in, to the wonderful apartment itself, and checkout. This apartment really does have the best view in Lisbon! It was beautifully appointed, comfortable, and equipped with everything we could think of. Our hosts were so gracious - even letting us store our luggage before the apartment was ready when we had a change to Our train schedule. They were lovely, and we couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more. Highly recommend!!

Almost perfect!

Outstanding personal residence, beautifully appointed, with amazing views. 2 couples and 1 single adult had plenty of room with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The only negatives were the lack of air conditioning, even with windows open, it was quite warm. The key to get into the building was very, very temperamental and we were left waiting outside several times for a while until we could get in. All in all, we'd stay there again!and 2 bathrooms.

Five Star Views!!

We loved it! Our first visit to Lisbon and we enjoyed the authentic neighborhood and location for 4 days of walking, sailing and excursions outside the city. Marc’s apartment was his personal home which we respected. Our older kids had the rooms with the views as well. We enjoyed a night in and cooked in the well appointed kitchen. Cheers! We’ll be back!

An Incredible Home to Enhance the Lisbon Experience

This home is off-the-charts amazing, as are the owners. It is beautiful with incredible views, fascinating decor, and comfort as well. When not admiring the views, we were admiring the stunning art, furnishings, and architecture. Marc and Maria are top-grade hosts that treat the renters as guests, unlike many managers. They provide recommendations for sites, restaurants, and anything else that would enhance your stay. We were even provided cheese, crackers, and Portuguese wine as a treat after a long trip. We are appreciative for the wonderful experience!

Just wonderful

Unbeatable views. The living room furniture is lived in but comfortable, the art is interesting, one feels at home. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are great with strong water pressure and abundant hot water. There is a washer and an honest to god dryer! The kitchen is well equipped and the host gave us some cheese, a bottle of wine and espresso pods for the machine. There is a market one half block away. The one weird thing about the apartment was the layout with the kitchen farthest away from the dining area.The owner is charming and informative, a few early bumps in communication ( we forgot the Lisbon code) proved unimportant. The elevator was a blessing. A 24 hour car park was a short walk through a lovely park filled with colorful birds. Nearest the apartment in the park is a children’s playground. Around the corner is a gelato shop, and a good cafe is across the street.Did I mention the views?Wow!

Our lovely Lisbon stay

We are five old friends who travel together each autumn. This year, we were so excited to visit Portugal, with Lisbon being the last stop on our two week trip. This apartment was absolutely perfect. It was spacious, warm and beautiful, very well appointed with spectacular views. Our hosts guided us to helpful neighbrhood ammenities (cafe, patisserie, grocerie store, local restaurants), which were all very close by. It was just a wonderful stay and we do hope to someday return to further explore this enchanting city.
