Philippe's place is a special spot with exceptional views. We loved being a few minutes from the lovely Graca church area. The apartment overlooks a park where the dogs play on the lawn...this is how we started each morning: coffee and dog watching. We recommend taking a couple of wild tuk-tuk rides while you are here. It's especially nice to have a ride back up the hill to the apartment after sight seeing! The stairs up the the fifth floor may get you winded but it's worth it!
