River view Portuguese Soul w/terrace Alfama 7p

Exquisite charming building dating back hundreds of years just renovated.
In one of the best locations in the historic center of Lisbon - Alfama.
With an interior patio and a terrace to enjoy outside. Going up some steps it has a private miradouro (balcony) with the most superb River and city view.
It comprises 2 separated apartments in the same building rented all together.
This premium place offers a high standard of comfort, plenty of natural sunlight and elaborate golden decor.

It can host up to 7 people.

This magnificent property is divided into 4 floors with a modern open interior staircase:
- Ground floor: apartment with a bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom and shower and a patio (with a separated entrance).

- Third floor: living room with a sofa bed, armchairs and a fully equipped kitchen. Going up some steps it has a private miradouro (balcony) with the most superb River and city view.

A defining characteristic of this building is the luminosity within. Thanks to the large windows and iron balconies, light shines into the interior from every angle at any time of the day.

Stairs are large but not steep, however, it is not suitable for people with mobility restrictions or young children.

Amazing property
The apartments and location couldn't have been more perfect for our family of 7. Bodegas and restaurants are within easy walking distance and the Fado museum is the perfect uber pick up spot. The apartment is well equipped, very clean and modern with an old world touch. There is street/people noise but part of the experience. Ana the host was super responsive and very welcoming. Highly recommend!!!

Beautiful apartment in the heart of Alfama
We LOVED our stay at this beautifully renovated apartment. Everything was meticulously thought out and each detail added to the overall feel of the space. The location is great with many delicious restaurants along the street and a bakery right across from the apartment. Everything looks exactly as the pictures and the property was very clean. The host was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. Highly recommend! P.S. We had little kids with us so we had to be extra careful about the steps and the couch in the living room, which comes up against a glass railing at the top of the steps. Just something to be mindful of, if traveling with little ones.

College/teen family vacation
Wonderful stay in Lisbon. Ana is a terrific host, providing responsive, helpful communication to make everything run smoothly. We rented to of adjacent apartment for our family of six—kids ages 23,21,19,17. The place was perfect. Alfama is very hilly and this apartment is in the heart of the neighborhood, but don’t let that scare you. After lugging our luggage up the 3 minute walk up from Fado Museum, we acclimated quickly. The neighborhood is special, with restaurants, shops, coffee/wine around each bend in the road. The units themselves were clean, as described, and exceeded our expectations. Ana delivers a special local Lisbon experience. We will be back!

Spectacular Apartment in Alfama
Apartment was well designed and especially enjoyed learning about its renovation (well done!) It was centrally located in Alfama to public transportation, restaurants, markets and bakeries (almost directly across from the apartment for those longing for a morning Ginja and pastel de nata). Close to many of the tourist sites, just a short walk or taxi drive away. Ana was very responsive to any questions we had. Strongly recommend this apartment!!

Great location and place!
The place was fantastic and the perfect location for us. There were good restaurants and shopping close by and it was easy to find our way around the neighborhood. Ana was fantastic. We arrived in Lisbon way before our check-in time, but since no one was staying in the place prior to our visit, Ana was able to let us check-in early. The place was easily to find, the check-in process was great, and the place was clean. I would definitely recommend the place to anyway one visiting Lisbon.

Beautiful, suite with loads of character
Four of us enjoyed staying right in the historic Alfama neighborhood and in this lovely apartment. Good location, close to the sites and the water. Ana, the property owner was very attentive and made sure we had a smooth check in and answered any of our questions. The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay there again.

Amazing property in the heart of Alfama
We just came back from an amazing stay in Lisbon. The apartments (we rented both) were the best decorated VRBO that I have ever stayed in. Absolutely amazing! We were lucky to also meet one of the owners and she could not be any nicer! The location is amazing, right in the heart of Alfama. There was Fado all around us every night. We could listen to the music even just sitting on the terrace. I cannot recommend the place enough. Of course, keep in mind that there is no way a car could reach the place. You carry your bags uphill for 3-5 min from the little square near by. But a small price to pay for the perfect location! We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Great base from which to explore Lisbon
Our multi-generational group enjoyed our stayed in the 2 apartments. Ana was a terrific host - she was very responsive and ensured that we had the necessary extras for our infant granddaughter. The apartments were clean and well-equipped. The beds were super comfortable! This was a great base in Alfama from which to explore Lisbon and beyond.

Great place to stay in the heart of Alfama
We went with family and friends and rented two units. The place was maticulous and fun and tasteful. We loved sharing a bottle of wine on the cute balcony on the rooftop and hearing the nightlife below in the streets. Lisboa is walking distance though with hill climbing through cobblestone alleys. Parking is not possible, so we had to find expensive overnight parking about 10 min walk away. But overall we had a great time at this place and would recommend this property to any young folk who wants to experience the vibrant city life!
