My husband and I stayed for over a month at this apartment while looking for a permanent place to live in Lisbon for our retirement. Tiago and Sonia are exceptional hosts to the point I made a friend for life. The apartment was located in a great area, with a view of the ocean, just 2 minutes walk to the beach, 8 minutes to public transportation, 1-3 minutes from a bakery, pharmacy, restaurants, and bars.
Every week Sonia cleaned the place as if it were her own. We would arrive "home" and everything would be smelling so fresh and clean. She did not just do a quick "pretend" clean; she really put a lot of effort so that the place was spotless.
The place had everything we needed, cookware, an oven, stove, fridge, towels, bathroom supplies (toiletries, etc.), linens, pillows, well, basically everything that one needs not only during vacation but to live there long term.
We were able to communicate always in less than 24 hours, most of the time in hours and sometimes minutes. Sonia and Tiago made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We had just a couple of things that we discussed with the hosts regarding improvements they can make, but nothing bad; it was only because nothing is perfect even though this stay was as perfect as we could possibly imagine. We really felt at home.
I recommend this apartment to couples, but it is also good for a family with no more than 2 kids, and also up to 3 people who want to enjoy a beautiful beach with clean sand that offers a long stretch for a walk, use outdoors exercise equipment as well as volleyballs nets, and choosing to learn to surf from one of the many surfing schools.
