This place was so nice for our family of 8. It was very comfortable and had all the essentials you would need. It was also a great surprise that the host left us Expresso pods and two bottles of wine upon our arrival. It was very centrally located to get everywhere by tram or foot. Overall a great place and I would highly recommend his house.
Great house for our 3 generation family. Plenty of living and sleeping space…and the outside terrace is beautiful. The location was exactly what we had hoped for…quick, easy and lovely walk to so many great little restaurants.
The hosts were very polite, attentive and welcoming. This is a gorgeous, bright, spacious, comfortable property in the charming historic district within walking distance to restaurants and sites. We had a wonderful stay here and would return.
We had a terrific stay for over a week with three generations of our family. We were welcomed and the house was in excellent condition. This location is just perfect - it is both quiet but also in the middle of everything!
The location was excellent. The streets felt safe and had much charm. Luis our host was very pleasant and helpful. He assisted us when ordering a Taxi for departure and was available when we needed him. We had everything that we needed for our short stay.
House is located at the top of the hill so you definitely get a good workout when venturing out. Location is amazing though with so much to do and see just steps from the door including dozens of restaurants. Hosts were great and responded to any requests very quickly. Only down side would be two of the rooms are in the lower level (basement) so they felt a bit musty. Otherwise it was a perfect place to stay for our Lisbon visit.
Amazing place, plenty of space for our family if 10. Host was incredible and even tried to help us when we lost a phone . Portuguese tarts on arrival .. doesn't get any better .
Fabulously home. We were a group of 11 family and friends and this home suited us very well. Indoor and outdoor areas and very well appointed, nothing was missing. Great location and great hosts.

Thank you very much Linda.
It was a pleasure to have you and your friends.
We hope you can comeback.
We are 6 friends who love to travel together, and this was one of our favorite stays ever! This beautiful old home has so much character, and there was plenty of space to spread out or hang out together. The private patio was a perfect place to gather for a glass of wine in the evening. Thank you Luis and Rita!
Luis has a lovely house in a great location! Restaurants close buy- everything you need & he was very responsive whenever I needed a taxi… only omission was a washer/Dryer on site but close but if needed. Highly recommend the host & house
It was very close to most things at the top of Lisbon. We did a lot of walking to different locations, churches, squares and parks. Very satisfied with the location. Our only problem was the public works department decided to dig up street and mess with the sewer lines. When we arrived (no fault of the place or owner… but a strong sewer gas smell. It dissipated after several hours and would return for short periods of time. The house is laid out nicely and had plenty of room for our family of 9. Kitchen well equipped and markets and bakeries close by.
This lovely older home is nicely appointed, full of charm, very spacious and most of all comfortable. It was lovely to be able to walk and explore the city and then come back to a space where we could just relax in comfort. If we were coming back to Portugal we would definitely stay here again.
Luis’s place was wonderful. It comfortably fit our two families. We loved the interior courtyard where young kids could play, and it was in a great walkable location. We highly recommend.
We were a family of 8 adults and this house had more than enough space for us. The outdoor patio was beautiful, even in December! Loved the location as well. Property was clean and owners were attentive and a pleasure. Thank you!
