We wanted something a little off the beaten path—what we ended up with far exceeded our expectations. Rita’s place is truly beautiful, both in decor and location. It felt both quintessentially Lisbon and also something special and a bit removed. The view from the window was nearly cinematic. The apartment itself if sparkling clean and pristine. It is easy to get around to popular areas such as Belém or to the center of downtown, but we enjoyed exploring the nearby surroundings even more. We opted for Rita to pick us up at the airport. She was extremely accommodating and very friendly and laid back, allowing us to arrive early and drop off our suitcases while the cleaning lady finished. We felt entirely at home and only regretted not staying longer. We will be dreaming about it for time to come. Muito obrigado, Rita!
