Domingos Lisbon

Property Description

Sometimes, you come across somewhere that stands out, even by Plum standards, and this is one of those times. Domingos is a beautifully maintained family home in Lapa, with plenty of space, and even a patio out the back. Make new memories dining alfresco out on the leafy, private terrace – it's the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring Lisbon. Known for its beautiful buildings, picturesque gardens and global embassies, Lapa is a largely residential area and consequently very quiet. Here, you'll be far removed from the tourists and intense crowds of this thriving city, and yet within reach of Baixa. Perhaps most importantly, the emphasis has clearly been on making it comfortable, rather than trying to squeeze people in. Having a separate (and large) living room, dining area, and kitchen makes it feel genuinely welcoming. The vibrant colours and eclectic decor really stand out too. And with the layout of the bedrooms, it would be particularly well suited to a family holiday.

Home truths:
*While Lapa's a charming area in its own right, it's a half-hour walk from the city centre
*As this is a two-storey home, you will have to climb some stairs – this may not be suitable for those with limited mobility or younger children
*Your host provides a travel cot and high chair on request
*Although the downstairs toilet has unfrosted glass doors, there are curtains to block the views
*There's free parking at the home
