Memória de Luz

Holiday Rental Description

Laid-back Belém is the perfect setting for this sunny home, sitting right across the street from the beautiful Igreja da Memória. Take in views of the church’s striking dome as well as the 25 de Abril suspension bridge from the living room’s sun-drenched balcony – best enjoyed with your morning coffee or over an evening glass of Portuguese wine.

Inside, the decor is modern with a boho touch, the walls decorated with rattan ornaments and the whole space bathed in light thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The bedrooms are just as stylish with their pared-back aesthetic and access to the balcony that runs the length of the home. Factor in the bathroom’s rainfall shower, and you’ve got everything you need for a relaxing stay.

When it comes to exploring nearby, make a beeline for Pastéis de Belém (a twelve-minute walk) – famed for the traditional custard tarts that they’ve been making since 1837 – and visit the ornate Jerónimos Monastery, a thirteen-minute stroll from your door. You’re also a twenty-minute stroll from the MAAT Museum and the Padrão dos Descobrimentos monument, while the ​​Belém Tower is just under thirty minutes away on foot.
