Cintia and her wonderful mother made us feel right at home. It is a beautifully furnished and carefully maintained space with attention to detail and a sense of taste and proportion in every square meter. This home is designed for those who prefer quality interiors and feel awe for beauty and functionality.
The villa is located away from the noise of the city and the tourist center, which you can reach on foot (20 minutes), by bus (8 minutes), by Uber for a couple of euros (5 minutes). Around the villa there are a bunch of cafeterias with delicious and super affordable coffee, a huge Lidl supermarket, a medium sized Minimercado and a very tiny Lipton Micromarket that you see from the window (there's a very sympathetic salesman who will always find a bottle of wine or a cold beer for you if you are too lazy to go to the supermarket).
The villa has a wonderful and spacious courtyard-garden that grows some of the most delicious organic plums and lemons we have ever tasted.
You can easily park your car in the fenced parking lot.
You will sleep on the cleanest linens and enjoy the quietness of the neighborhood.
Sound like a fairy tale? It might. But if you want to understand what hospitality and guest care is, book your stay in Lisbon at Duques Villa. That's 5 stars, folks!
Cintia and her mother are true hospitality professionals who made our two week stay so warm that we can never forget it.
I hope to meet you again someday, my dear friends!
Best wishes and hugs,
Tim and Elena.
