This apartment was perfect and Hugo is the best host (better than any I have experienced on air bnb).
I was visiting Lisbon with my family for my dad’s 60th birthday so I wanted the trip to be memorable and first class and it was.
The apartment is flawless. It looks fantastic in the pictures but even they don’t do it justice. This place is something special.
The bed linen and towels are 5* quality. The showers (there are two) are top notch. Much better than mine at home and definitely better than any I’ve had in hotels.
The beds are so comfortable. All of them!
The master bedroom on the first floor (which I had the privilege of staying in) is light, bright and airy and has a fantastic balconette. There were plenty of spare towels and cushions and duvets too (not that we needed them because the weather was great). The master bedroom has a dressing table, full length mirrors and plenty of accessible sockets e.g. for a hairdryer (I’ve found some places are badly designed and don’t cater for us ladies needing mirrors and sockets in the right places but Hugo has thought of everything!)
This really is a home from home. Everything we needed was on hand.
The interior design is inspiring (Hugo, will you decorate my home?!). A lot of love and attention to detail has gone into this place.
The rooftop terrace is fantastic. We enjoyed several sunsets whilst there. The views across this city are amazing.
The location was perfect too.
It’s often tricky knowing where best to stay when visiting a new city. We explored Lisbon a lot and I can safely say, we were in the best possible place. Both behind us and below, we found an abundance of top quality bars and restaurants, a beautiful park. The area is quiet and there was no noise but it wasn’t far to walk to enjoy the evening bustle. There is a viewing point close by which has spectacular views and we found ourselves there most evenings, enjoying the local entertainment, sangria and produce. I won’t spoil it too much for you because part of the experience is arriving and realising exactly where you are and what there is on offer-it’s quite special!
Hugo arrived to meet us earlier than agreed to show us around and provided us with a warm welcome and everything we needed to know. He went beyond expectations and went out of his way for us on several occasions-always contactable and responding quickly.
He organised taxis for us on our final day to help us out. He even remembered it was my dad’s birthday and sent a kind message on the day which was incredibly thoughtful.
I could go on…but you get the gist!
Take me back to Lisbon already-Hugo, I want to live in your beautiful apartment!
