There’s nothing but positive things to say about about this home, and it truly was a “home away from home”. Our stay started with a super warm welcome by Tif, such great person, I immediately felt I’d made a new friend.
Tif and Matt have provided a beautiful gem of an apartment. It’s super clean, very spacious and has a fantastic view from the terrace and dining room. The apartment was well stocked with everything you could need, fluffy towels, soaps, shampoos etc in the bathroom, a very comfy bed with extra blankets if needed, books for reading, movies to watch, etc. The best surprise was how generously stocked the kitchen was, not only with the usual cooking and serving ware, but there were many basic perishable and non-perishable food items provided. We were even able to make ourselves spaghetti the first night without having to buy groceries. Such a thoughtful and hugely welcome surprise.
The location of the apartment is perfect, it’s a short walk into the village where you’ll find many shops and restaurants, everything you need really. And Tif offered recommendations on places to eat and where to buy specific items we were looking for. Make sure to refer to the awesome guide book they’ve provided as its full of very useful information. The apartment is within walking distance to a lot of places you would want to visit and if you’re really into walking you can reach most attractions on foot, although Uber is also great for getting around. Just remember, Lisbon is a very hilly city, so regardless of where you walk, hills and stairs will be in the mix.
I don’t know what else I can add to explain how great this apartment was and how wonderful Tif and Matt were. It was such a pleasure meeting them and their canine kids, and such a fantastic experience staying in their apartment. We wouldn’t even bother to look at other places to stay when next we visit, this will be our go-to and we will recommend their place to any of our friends visiting to Lisbon.
Thank you so very much Tif and Matt.
