The apartment was a delight! Each of our guests had their own space to retreat to - a bedroom and private bath - as well as a cute common space to gather, eat, and catch up over the holidays. The rooms themselves were thoughtfully decorated with local pictures highlighting the neighborhood, were quiet and dark for sleeping, great showers, had ac/heat, and had safes and keys if needed. The common room (kitchen/dining) was cozy with room for 3 littles to play and a great area of us to cook our holiday meals and had seats and space for all of us at the large dining room (9 adults and 3 kids). And the cleaning every 2 days was such a help and huge blessing! It spoiled us for ordinary Airbnbs. We loved it and would recommend it for any large multigenerational group visiting Lisbon.
Susana and Diogo were such amazing hosts! We cannot say enough great things about them. They reached out proactively to see what we needed for the kids (providing cots and high chairs) and helped us navigate changing COVID requirements around the holidays. Diogo even shared his breakfast and coffee with us when we first arrived! Susana was great at checking in with us throughout the stay and made sure all was going smoothly. They even spoiled us with a gift of port and a bolo rei for our Christmas dinner!
Their amazing hospitality combined with such a great space made our 2021 Christmas so special. We are eternally grateful.
