Perfect property for a group. Plenty of room, privacy and everything you would need for a comfortable stay. The family was super responsive and gave great recommendations. Easy to get to Old Town Lisbon from Belém and lots to do right near the apartment.

I would happily recommend the home to anyone looking to stay close to Lisbon.Thanks again for a wonderful week.Michelle and Family.

A Gem in the Heart of Belem
Our family originally chose this house in Belem because it was away from the busy downtown of Lisbon and we were traveling with two small children. We also like staying in local neighborhoods when we travel. The house itself provided a comfortable place for our party of six. We had everything we needed to make us feel comfortable. The location is great. You are steps away from some great restaurants, the hop on hop off bus, parks for the kids, the river walk and public transportation. Our host and hostess, Ricardo and Leanora were right upstairs and a phone call away. We really enjoyed our vacation. We all fell in love with Portugal and it's people.

A rental that feels like a home
We enjoyed this apartment for a week over New Year's. The location in Belem is wonderful - the monastery, several museums, and plenty of delicious restaurants are within easy walking distance. The bus and tram would have been easy to catch just down the street, although we chose to Uber and the pickup was always fast. The apartment is so much more than a rental - it really feels like you are enjoying the family's second home. The furnishings are just beautiful, the bathrooms are newly remodeled and better than some European hotels (no cold half-open shower!) and the kitchen was well-stocked for really any cooking/dining needs. An Auchan grocery store for a "bigger run" is an easy walk and then there are plenty of smaller convenience stores within a block or two. The best part about this home was the ease of communicating with the owner Ricardo and his lovely family. They couldn't have been more welcoming. We enjoyed it thoroughly.

Wonderful stay!
We spent two weeks at the property using it as our base to explore Lisbon and the surrounding area. We loved every minute of it. Ricardo gave us helpful local restaurant recommendations and ideas for local sights. We really felt like locals by the end. It’s really convenient to get around. We loved the pool, eating dinner in the garden or on the terrace and generally hanging out. We’ll definitely be booking again.

Quirky, full of character and charm. Do not hesitate to stay here, this apartment has been lovingly restored in keeping with its age and has a warmth and personality that is unique. The pool and garden are a mini paradise and extremely private. Edwardo and Leonora are lovely people who are discreet and leave you to yourselves yet are there should you need some information.

Excellent hosts, house, location!
Our family of 5 (boys age 12 & daughter age 7) had a fantastic stay in this historic home with modern amenities. As others have noted, the owners are local & met us for check in, gave excellent recommendations for dinners, and told us about the house. The house is very spacious, we particularly enjoyed the large bathrooms. The backyard is fantastic, we were tired from travel and enjoyed take out by the pool our first night. The location is excellent for all things “museum district”, it’s a short walk to major sites. There is large parking lot right across the street if you have a car. House is super clean. We would absolutely recommend!

My grandson was able to feed the fish in the pond! It was so much fun for him!

Wonderful garden backyard and a lap pool for relaxing. The location was perfect for wandering the river town of Belem with lots of sites to see.

This is a wonderful space, a lovingly restored house. The pool and courtyard are an oasis, especially on scorching August days (and the house stays quite cool). Even as two families totaling 7 people (three teens, 4 adults) we had so much room. Great neighborhood, near monastery, museums, grocery store, and public transit. Helpful hosts!

This home is beautiful from the house key to the garden with pool! We very much enjoyed staying in the Garden, and it felt like a home away from home. My children loved the long wooden floored hallways. I loved the structure, and history of the home. The hosts were amazingly hospitable.They allowed the kids to feed the fish and delivered amazing treats. It is conveniently located. A nice walk to many sights, restaurants, shops, and great park for the children to play at. I can't wait to come back! Thank you so much for sharing this gem with our group!!

Traditional charm in Lisboa
The design and decor of the house was traditional with respect to the history, while still providing wonderful modern features. The design of the house and furnishings of the room allowed plenty of privacy for our group of 7 and many shared spaces for us to gather as a group. The garden was lovely and relaxing and the pool was just what we needed after a hot day of touring Sintra and other local sites.
The neighborhood is quiet and ample access to parking. The bus stop is conveniently located near the house and the train and waterfront is walking distance. There are several markets and many restaurants within a short walk - or even on the same block.
Ricardo lives in the same building and was easily available for questions. He left some delightful welcoming gifts of wine and almonds and delivered some local pastries to us mid-week.
I will definitely try to stay here again if in Lisbon and would recommend it as an easy spot for a group vacation.

Genuine Portuguese experience
Stayed at this property while in town for a work conference. The Congress Center is a close walk, which was perfect for us. You will need Uber, bus or trolley to get into Lisbon for a lot of sight seeing. The flat is laid out in genuine Portuguese style as our hosts explained. There was a lot of space. The garden is lovely. The hosts are delightful and full of great recommendations.

Wonderful Traditional Villa Close to Congress Center
My family and I had the great fortune of staying here for 6 wonderful nights while I attended a meeting at the Congress Center. Ricardo and Leonir are excellent hosts, who greeted us big smiles, a short tour of the property, but most importantly, a spectacular port and almonds to snack on. The villa was spacious, beautifully decorated with antiques, clean, and comfortable. The garden is charming, and the pool greatly appreciated after a long day of sightseeing. The location is perfect - easy walking distance to the Congress Center as well as the shops and restaurants on the boardwalk. There’s a bus/tram stop right across the street, so transportation was as easy as it gets. I was also happy not having to walk up and down a steep hill while coming/going to the congress as many of my colleagues did. We truly felt at welcome, and called the villa “home” as that’s how we thought of it. Leonir’s sightseeing and restaurant recommendations were spot on, and she went out of her way to ensure all of our comforts were met, even buying umbrellas for us as the forecast called for rain one day. My only regret was being so busy with the meeting, I had limited time to enjoy the house. But my husband, son, and brother, who were vacationing, relished their time there, sleeping in, exploring Lisbon, and relaxing in the garden. I highly recommend staying at Ricardo and Leonir’s villa, whether you are in Lisbon for a congress or vacation, and hope to someday come back to this magical place.

An Authentic Paradise
Every aspect of our stay was above and beyond our expectations.
Stunning, elegant decor lovingly created by the owners.
The property was clean containing all we needed. Each room had been designed to create its individual character, respectfully and considerately honouring its history.
The garden is pure paradise with large palms, Olive trees creating shade, a pond which creates the wonderful sound of trickling water and a pool that is perfect for your morning swim and dipping into any time of day. The large grand apartment with marble tops and flooring offered a cool respite from the sun.
The owners could not have been more welcoming and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure our stay with them fulfilled our desire for an enjoyable stay.
We will be returning to what felt like home and highly recommend booking here. A beautiful place to stay and ideally situated for local shops, restaurants and travel yet in a tranquil part of town with easy access when desiring to go sightseeing.
We were thrilled with our experience and have made some great memories. Thank you.
