About this property

Very quiet with stunning views over Alfama roofs and Tagus river - Free Transfer

COMPLIMENTARY PICK UP FROM LISBON INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

CHECK-INS ARE NOT POSSIBLE ON DEC. 24, 25 AND 31 AND JAN 1ST.

LISBON'S MUNICIPAL TOURIST TAX WILL BE COLLECTED CASH BY CHECK-IN (EUR 4 per person over the age of 13 and per overnight stay, up to a maximum of 7 nights per stay).

Located in the heart of the medieval Moorish and Jewish neighborhood of Alfama, the apartment has a stunning water view over the Tagus estuary. Within walking distance from many of Lisbon's leading museums and monuments, the apartment is in close proximity to local grocers and supermarkets as well as neighborhood restaurants, cafes, bars as well as eclectic shops of every kind.

The apartment is in an 18th century building nestled into a steep slope of one of Lisbon’s hills, 100 meters above sea level. So while its main and private entrance is on the ground-floor, you can enjoy the stunning river view from the second floor balconies on the other side of the apartment, without having to climb any stairs.

The building is facing south, the apartment is sunny and bright all day long. You can sit in the living room and admire Lisbon’s beauty while overlooking red-tiled rooftops that are set against the blue water of the Tagus river.

The apartment is in close proximity to all types of public transportation: tram, bus and subway.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
- June 13th is Saint Anthony's day (Lisbon city holiday) and so it is a time of festivities, with traditional parties in the streets all over Lisbon until dawn, mainly in the oldest and most historical neighborhoods. The neighborhood of Alfama (where the apartment is) is one of the main sites of these festivities, with music, dancing, food, and hundreds of people in the streets. These festivities usually take place over a whole week, but mostly on the weekends before and after the 13th, and also on the night of the 12th to 13th of June. Our apartment has double-glazed windows and heavy wooden shutters, but on these days it will be noisier than usual. However, this is a very special time in Lisbon and it is worth joining the party :-).

- We prepare the house with all our care, attention to detail and tailored to our guests. We ask you to look after it with the same care and in the best way possible.

- Respect the neighbours not making too much noise, especially after 10 pm.

- We can be flexible with check-in and check-out timings as long as they do not conflict with other reservations.

- When making your reservation for more than two guests, please note that there is a small extra payment. This will be visible in the breakdown of the total price of the reservation.

- Casa d'Alfama is duly registered in the Tourism Authority of Portugal (#986/AL) and respects Portuguese laws and regulations.

Plenty of space for my wife, daughter, and I to spread out and enjoy Alfama. The breeze through the ocean facing windows was a delight coupled with the Fado music singers in the distance was icing on the cake. Paulo the host is what every host should strive to be, communication and overall hospitality is too notch!

Paulo kindly met us from the airport and drove us to the property showing us some sights and recommendations on the way.The apartment was clean, well equipped and had a great view. Fantastic location in the old town nestled in tiny streets with lots of cafe/pastelaria/restuarants/bars around and close to lots of attractions. Thankyou we had a lovely stay.

We loved this VRBO! Our host Paulo was so patient, kind and friendly and gave us wonderful information regarding things to do and places to eat in Lisbon, Alfama District. The VRBO was clean, quiet, and had everything we needed. Our morning jogs along the River were lovely and the location allowed us to walk to many of the sites or take a bus which was easy to navigate, Highly recommend!

A very comfortable apartment. Paulo was very friendly, informative and helpful. The views were great, and it was lovely to have breakfast looking out over the harbour, especially when no cruise ships were in port. Also, very lovely in the evening and night, no cruise ships were around then.

Wonderful stay in Alfama

We had a great stay at this apartment in Alfama. The apartment was equipped with everything we needed, we would have drinks most nights looking out the window and enjoying the breeze. The location was perfect and Ana answered any questions we had very promptly. Nadina, the driver she arranged for us, was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed our vacation

Thoughtful hosts and lovely place

This was a fantastic place! We really loved it, it was comfortable and a brilliant location. The toys they put together for our kids were so thoughtful and the communication throughout was helpful and informative. Only thing that would improve the apartment is air conditioning but there were lots of fans which meant it was cool enough!

Best place to experience Old Town

This was our first visit to Lisbon but the Alfama seemed the most interesting from our research. This apartment was ideally suited for walking “tours”. The bakery is just down the street, the restaurants near the Musee da Faro we’re excellent, and the view of the river was extraordinary. The owner and her team were very helpful and spoke excellent English, overcoming our terrible Portuguese!
