Picture Perfect Lisbon

Property Description

This stylish apartment sits atop the highest hill in Lisbon. Thanks to the hardwood floors, stone wall, small balconies and large windows that fill the space with light, there's a cosy vibe here that will make you feel right at home. Oh, and did we mention the view? Just step out onto the balcony and you'll see the sparkling river in the distance. There's a fully-stocked kitchen that makes cooking a breeze, and your hosts are also more than happy to arrange exciting extras like breakfast delivery, home massages, surf lessons, a cruise on the Tagus and even helicopter rides. Though you're a bit far from Praça do Comércio and the city centre (it's a fifteen-minute bus ride), staying in Graça is worth it. You'll find colourful houses, local restaurants making traditional Portuguese fare and independent shops nestled amongst the cobblestone alleyways. Not to mention this area has some of the best viewpoints in Lisbon – we suggest Miradouro da Graça, which is a fifteen-minute walk away.

Home truths:
*The hosts can arrange cots and high chairs for a fee – if you’d like one, please request during booking
*Access to this home might be a challenge for those with limited mobility – it's on top of a hill and there's no lift to the second floor
*Be sure to pack comfortable shoes – this area is famous for its steep hills, and with so many sights within walking distance, you’ll spend a lot of time on your feet
*The balcony is small – there's nowhere to sit but you can still stand and admire the view
