About this property

Spacious, Traditional in Historic Lisbon, 5 minutes from TimeOut Market

Come and stay in our spacious apartment in the historic centre of Lisbon which is packed with old charm and has a truly traditional feel.

The space: The 150 sq metre apartment is on the first floor in a traditional, elegantly appointed building (circa 1880), with lift and 3 balconies at the front.
Recently renovated to modern high standards, it has all the comforts to make you feel cosy. It is also packed full of original features - stucco ceilings, original windows, shutters and old Portuguese tiles.

The accommodation: There are 2 double bedrooms, both with double beds. The third bedroom has 1 single bed. We have a travel cot for babies. The apartment can sleep a maximum of 5 people (plus potentially 1 baby). There are 2 recently installed bathrooms, living room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen, and cool shady courtyard. Furnished in traditional style with antique furniture, Persian carpets, and Portuguese hydraulic mosaic tiles, but with modern touches.

Bedrooms are fully equipped with hotel quality sheets and storage heaters. Ther is gas central heating throughout the property. Fresh towels provided.
Kitchen has gas cooker, electric oven, microwave, nespresso coffee machine, washing machine and dryer. Bathroom 1 has power shower, toilet and sink, bathroom 2 has bath with power shower, sink, bidet and toilet.
The living/dining room has comfy sofas, leather armchair, and dining table seating 6 people. There is satellite TV (with international channels), DVD player and music centre to play your music. The house has broadband wifi.

The place has an incredible feeling of space with 3.5 metre ceilings, but the décor is comfortable and cosy.

Guest access: You rent the entire apartment. Please note: Parking is not easy. There is also a pay car park 1 minutes walk away.

Check in/contact: We live in London so we have someone local (English speaking) to meet you to check in and out, and be on hand locally if there are any problems during your stay.

The neighbourhood: Located in the central area of Santos, known as the design district, it is a fun trendy district surrounded by shops, great restaurants, and museums. Great for wandering around and exploring. The Museum of Art and Antiquities is 4 minutes walk further along our street. We are also a few minutes walk from Cais de Sodre which has many fun bars and clubs. It is also within easy walk of central Lisbon and Belem for tourist attractions, and only 3 minutes walk from the riverfront where you can take a 20 minute train to beaches in Cascais. The street itself is peaceful, safe and quiet. Your neighbours are well heeled Portuguese, many of whom have lived there for decades.

Getting around: Tram number 25 runs at the bottom of our street. It is 10 minutes walk to central Lisbon ( Rossio). The nearest metro station is Cais do Sodre (5 minutes walk), and the nearest rail station is Santos with trains to the beach in Cascais. Taxi rank at the bottom of the street.

This would be the perfect place for groups of friends, couples or small families.
Come and stay in our lovely traditional Lisbon apartment!

PLEASE NOTE: Check in is between 3-10 pm, if you would like to check in after 10pm there is an additional charge of 25 euros payable on arrival.

Lisboa neighborhood stay
The apartment is in a great location with restaurants and access to local attractions nearby. We also enjoyed the several markets within walking distance and the pharmacy just down the street. We felt very much at home for our weeklong stay. Location is great! It is a city apartment and as such has a lot of foot traffic going by but it is off the most well travelled streets so does get quieter at night. Smokers sitting outside the next door restaurants did keep us from fully taking advantage of the open air feel in the front living room; we kept those windows closed when smokers were sitting outside in the restaurant downstairs. The weather was unseasonably warm, so we used fans to move the air around; it got a little stuffy, so we appreciated the available fans. Our weeklong stay was much more enjoyable than a hotel would have been because of the appartment’s appointments such as the washer, dryer, towel dryer and the two bathrooms. The wifi worked so well and for my wired family was vital for planning and searching out the city and playing our online games. We had a great time enjoying Lisboa either on foot or with Uber and the apartment gave a wonderful place to regroup, revive, and get ready for the next day’s adventure…or just hang around enjoying each others company. I would highly recommend this apartment for adults who want a homey home base while experiencing Lisbon and the surrounding area, but don’t expect to find parking! Use Uber.

Centrally located Lisbon Apartment
The location was great but we travelled by car and had to find a long term parking garage to house the vehicle because there are no parking spaces offered with the rental. The flat has a convenient location within walking distance to many restaurants, shopping districts and cafes. We had two couples and one single in our group and we had plenty of room in the well appointed apartment. It was a very good experience and the property manager was very kind to wait for us as we navigated Lisbon traffic!

Large amazing apartment
Be sure and practise unlocking apartment door to get the hang of it. Stunning sitting area with demi balconies. Tiny bedrooms but you’re sleeping in there anyway. Two lovely clean bathrooms. Amusing long hallway to kitchen and bathrooms. We loved it.

Great location and a beautiful building
This spacious property was lovely! Great walking location yet a bit out of the high traffic areas. Our host gave us some great recommendations for dinner and things to do. Period details in the apartment but very nice modern bathrooms and kitchen. We would definitely stay there again.

Our stay
All and all very nice and spacious for a family of 5 Furniture in living room and dining room not very comfortable but beds were comfortable enogh. Kitchen pots and pans need to be replaced. Hard to cook with the ones provided but if you don't cook no problem. Area very close to most everything, and uber very convenient from there. Just some construction going on aruond the area with a little noise. We would recommend this stay.

About the host

Hosted by Katy Keenan

Host profile image
We are a Brazilian- English couple who live and work in London. We love renovating properties and this was our project a few years ago. Now we use it as a second home, but offer it for holiday rentals when we are not using it.

Why they chose this property

This is a very traditional authentic property in a very well established and historically wealthy area of Lisbon. The streets are full of history. The neighborhood was built to house wealthy sea merchants, and our street was originally facing the Tagus. Since then land was reclaimed and we are now a few minutes walk from the water.

Primarily this is our home- rather than a tourist rental. We tried to make it elegant and cosy, really showing off the space. We hope that guests will appreciate the experience of living among local well-heeled Lisbonites in a beautiful and historic area.
