Anabela and I had a lot of communications before, during and after the holiday. I was not surprised when I met her in person because she was as warm as the person that I had felt through our prior communications. We were five people, two families and it was our first time in Portugal. Anabela was kind enough to prepare a detailed document for us about what to do in Lisbon and by the sea. The flat was tidy and clean when we arrived. We cooked meals twice during our 8-night stay and there was enough plates and cups for what we need. Breakfast time was always pleasant because of the view in front of the flat - the sea! The main road in front of the flat might be a bit noisy for people who are sensitive about sound in the night so I would suggest people like me sleep in the bedroom. I don’t hear anything in the bedroom. My nephew and the father of the other family slept in the living room and they had good sleep every night. There was no stress traveling in Lisbon or going anywhere else during our stay and part of the reason is because Anabela always responded almost immediately to any questions we asked her. For the evenings we ate outside, I asked for her recommendation every time and we had some good food because of her help. The first restaurant we tried in Lisbon was an amazing one - not only because of the food but more because of the local fado singer and the band. We wouldn’t have found such a local restaurant with a local artist without Anabela’s recommendation. We all enjoyed the meal and the performance and it was a highlight. When we were leaving I put one key in the mailbox as Anabela instructed me and unfortunately I took one key with me by mistake and I only noticed this mistake when I was already in the taxi going to the airport. Anabela was good enough not to say anything and arranged to have the key delivered back to her by the taxi driver! Her flat is a comfy place to stay and I would recommend it to people who prefer not staying in downtown and who prefers seeing nature every morning when they get up. Thank you Anabela for your hospitality and all the help you have given us!
