Located in Lisbon’s Alvalade neighbourhood, this bright, stylish apartment offers an ideal base for those looking for an authentic Lisboeta stay away from the tourist crowds. We love the vibrant pops of raspberry pink in the home’s pretty decor and the dazzling amount of light that flows through from the large windows and glass doors. Open these up to step out onto a tree-framed balcony – the ideal spot to begin mornings over coffee or end the night with a glass of Portuguese wine. Decorative details like the living room’s fish tank that looks through to the bedroom, as well as the tangerine-tiled kitchen and the beautiful red and pink bathroom with its inviting soaking tub help to create a beautiful setting for a comfortable, memorable stay. When it comes to sightseeing and things to do, you’ve got plenty of family-run restaurants in your neighbourhood, as well as Parque de Jogos 1º de Maio a fifteen-minute walk away. You’re also a twenty-minute Metro ride from the Santa Justa Lift, a twenty-five Metro ride from the historic Alfama district and an eighteen-minute bus ride from Parque Eduardo VII.

Local guide
About Alvalade
If you didn’t know Alvalade before, you’ll definitely leave raving about it. Technically on the outskirts of Lisbon, this district is a hidden gem away from the bustling centre. It’s away from the seven hills, so it’s blissfully flat – you can explore by bike or on foot without the cardio workout of the rest of the city. It’s also residential, so you get that neighbourhood feel – think families...
