We were a family of 5 , 2 adults and 3 small children 6 ,3, almost 2 year old. The apartment is easy to get to from the airport with a taxi and the metro . we chose the taxi considering the luggage and children . Check in was smooth and all the instructions clearly explained . We instantly felt at home as there was everything we needed . Thankyou for the bottle of wine and chocolate.
My kids loved the terrace and the ball pit . They played there everyday while I cooked a meal . The kitchen was well equipped and It was really nice to have a washing machine 😊.
After a tiring day out we were happy to come home to a hot shower and comfortable big beds for a good nights sleep . Sometimes we would just be at home especially in the evenings when we just played at the nearby park . My kids loved the fountain there called Fonte Luminosa.
The location was amazing with the metro being just 2 mins away connecting to all major sites like the zoo , oceanarium, St George’s castle ,Colombo mall , vasco da gama , Sinatra . we were without a buggy and i had no problem walking to the metro .My youngest who is almost 2 loved his walk to the metro .
My kids loved the pigeons near the park and i took them there every day in the evenings . The internet is good , we watched Netflix and youtube on tv with no problem . We also watched cable tv .
There were so many supermarkets around , we loved shopping at Auchan 2 mins walk , Pingo Doce and Continente 4 mins walk . The area around is clean and safe to walk with children .
There is also a good bakery within 5 mins walk called A Padaria we had the local Pao De Deus a yummy must try for everyone with a sweet tooth. We had an early flight on checkout day the driver was on time 3.30 am and the transfer was quick and easy . Maria is indeed a super host whenever we needed any advice she would instantly respond which made things so much easier . If you want to experience local portuguese family life this is the place to stay and the amazing hospitality and service makes this place a very good Air BnB. All we can say is Thankyou Maria and Evelyn for everything . A big God Bless .
