Smack bang in the heart of Lisbon, this home can be found in a beautiful traditionally tiled building of white and blue. To match the beauty of the facade, you'll find a striking palette of deep blues and bright yellows across the home. Mixed with natural elements, beautiful design and carefully curated furnishings, it makes an attractive base from which to explore the bold city on your doorstep.

After a slow start – we recommend a morning reading in the light on the armchair – head out to see the Rua Augusta Arch and the Lisbon Cathedral. Find another opportunity for a holiday selfie around every corner as you admire the architecture and vibrancy of Lisbon. 

Come back with a few dozen pastéis de nata to enjoy at the dining table as you recap the day's adventures with a fresh cup of coffee.

Close enough to the action to feel buzzy and vibrant, yet just far enough out of the touristic centre to ensure an authentic experience. This cosy and classic apartment is filled with traditional touches such as colourful tiled floors, a light-filled living room that's perfect for putting your feet up and a compact kitchen that can handle anything you care to throw at it. In addition, the views out over Palácio de São Bento, home of the Portuguese parliament, provide a real sense of place. While most visitors flock to Alfama and pack out the bars of Bairro Alto, we'd suggest that it's Príncipe Real that is on the up. Walk 500m to the lush Jardim do Príncipe Real. Here, locals gather to sit and sip coffee, play chess and gossip – it's a genuine slice of Lisbon life. But there's a lot more going on here than bica (espresso) and board games. The neighbourhood is a haven for foodies too. Right by the park, you'll find celebrated A Cevicheria, where diners gather to indulge in flawlessly executed small plate seafood. At the same time, Atalho Real serves sumptuous steaks in a laid-back atmosphere. And the fun doesn't stop when the sun goes down – local fave Pavilhão Chinês serves up inventive cocktails in an old grocery store packed out with antiques.

Welcome Hamper

Nice to haves

Sometimes, you come across somewhere that stands out, even by Plum standards, and this is one of those times. Domingos is a beautifully maintained family home in Lapa, with plenty of space, and even a patio out the back. Make new memories dining alfresco out on the leafy, private terrace – it's the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring Lisbon. Known for its beautiful buildings, picturesque gardens and global embassies, Lapa is a largely residential area and consequently very quiet. Here, you'll be far removed from the tourists and intense crowds of this thriving city, and yet within reach of Baixa. Perhaps most importantly, the emphasis has clearly been on making it comfortable, rather than trying to squeeze people in. Having a separate (and large) living room, dining area, and kitchen makes it feel genuinely welcoming. The vibrant colours and eclectic decor really stand out too. And with the layout of the bedrooms, it would be particularly well suited to a family holiday.

Good times are guaranteed at this bright and breezy apartment located in Lisbon’s sought-after Lapa neighbourhood. This charming home has a natural coastal aesthetic, making it an idyllic retreat to come home to after a day out exploring Basílica da Estrela and the gardens of Guerra Junqueiro Garden, just an eight-minute walk away.

The city’s coastal mentality is reflected in this apartment’s natural seaside aesthetic – think rattan furnishings, soft linen fabrics, and a host of tropical plants. The light and open dining room is set up for a memorable dinner under the glow of the rattan light fixture. What this home does so well is create a sense of calm within its design - the living room is a delight to unwind in after a day of exploring the museums along the marina. Come nightfall, nothing will feel better than sinking into your soft sheets, the buzz of the city just outside your window.

Step outside and soak up the vibrancy of the neighbourhood before setting off to Time Out Market Lisbon, just a seventeen-minute walk, where you can indulge in a myriad of culinary offerings or take a cooking class. After your fill of the local delights, head to Arco da Rua Augusta to admire the ornate triumphal arch – you’re going to want to snap a few photos here. Then, as nighttime descends, seek out snails and beer at one of the tascas, like a true Lisboeta.

Homely, central and stylish, this stunning city apartment has everything we look for when scoping out new places to add to our collection. We could easily see ourselves spending all day unwinding here, sipping a glass of wine on the French balcony or playing parlour games with friends and family as the sun sets over the city’s golden rooftops.  And with a fully equipped kitchen at your disposal, what’s to stop you whipping up a home-cooked feast and enjoying a relaxing evening in with all your favourite people? 

If you fancy a change of scenery though, there’s plenty to see nearby, from picture-perfect Green Street to the iconic 25 de Abril Bridge, just a short drive from home. Hitch a ride on the Elevador da Bica, go for a relaxing stroll along the River Tagus, or gaze out at the city skyline from the top of the Terrapleno de Santos Ferris wheel. Whatever your day has in store, it’s sure to be a good one. 

Iberian Oasis

Located in the prestigious Estrela neighbourhood of Lisbon, this central spot makes for a convenient stay centred around soaking up the city's sights. Ideal for a couple, the space offers a comfortable set-up to base yourselves between days out exploring. You'll be within walking distance of most of the city's attractions, and with a little kitchenette area, it gives you the choice of dining out to discover the local culinary delights or preparing your own meals at home. It's worth noting that while there is space for an additional two guests to sleep on the sofa bed, it may be a little cramped when booked at maximum occupancy. 


Prism of Summer

Enjoy the views of Lisbon's colourful rooftops, the stunning vistas of the famous Tagus River, and the iconic 25 de Abril bridge from this vibrant home's balcony. 

But it's not all about the view – where do we start with the interiors – they are gorgeous. The grey chequered wallpaper of the feature wall in the living room contrasts perfectly with the teal soft furnishings and canary yellow armchairs. This home has plenty of character features, too, such as the ceiling's ornate mouldings. We also have to say that we love the main bedroom with its glamorous chandelier and large en-suite with more wonderful vistas.

When you want to explore Alcantara-Terra station is around a ten-minute walk. The Park of Necessidades is a short stroll away, where you'll find peacocks roaming, duck ponds and a cactus garden, oh yes, and more views over the Tagus River.

Bright and inviting, Light of Lights is a homey and stylish apartment in the quiet neighbourhood of Lapa. Personal arty touches such as brightly painted chairs and tiles add pizazz and character, although you’ll probably want to spend most of your time on the two beautiful balconies – they really make this home stand out. As the name suggests, there's no shortage of natural light here, with huge windows and doors to the balconies from the living room, bedroom and even the kitchen.

The neighbourhood is local, friendly and not overly touristy, but close to top attractions such as the Basilica and Tapada das Necessidades, and best of all it has excellent access to the city's famous tram service.

It might seem impossible to try and join solid marble in the kitchen with an original wooden structure in the living room, but against all odds, it works. This apartment has stayed faithful to its roots by incorporating the original support beams into its modern design while experimenting with various textures and materials. The final result is a diverse space with lots of character and plenty of light. This home is located in Casa Chafariz, a recently renovated historical landmark that celebrates the city's unique Pombaline architecture. Flying under the radar, step out into the Santos neighbourhood, and you'll find yourself in the middle of a hip community of glossy shops and cafes that's been established by local artists and architects, the focal point of which is the marina.

The Marble Baron

Immerse yourself in the vibrant and eclectic beauty of Lisbon with a stay at this bright and stylish apartment situated in the tranquil Lapa district. An ideal base for a family holiday or a relaxing getaway for a group of friends, this cheerful pad will make your time in the city comfortable and relaxing. 

Arrive to be welcomed by the bohemian-inspired décor, with lots of gorgeous plants and plush furnishings. The place is bathed in natural light streaming in through the large windows, and the comfy sofa invites you to kick back and relax after a day of exploring. You’ll be able to rustle up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen and savour them at the dining table – although do keep in mind that the space here is limited to four. 

Nighttime brings the promise of restful sleep, with a choice of two equally luxurious bedrooms, both featuring soft beds and a lovely ambience. Wake up restored and start the new day with a cup of freshly brewed coffee. 
When you’re ready to venture out you’ll find yourself in a prime location for reaching many of the city’s highlights. A ten-minute walk will take you down to the harbour, while the historic centre with its winding streets lies a short tram ride away. 

A Tram Named Sunshine 

Desk / Workplace

While the city of Lisbon is an explosion of colour down at street level, this apartment is pretty muted when it comes to interior design. The dominant colour palette of svelte greys and neutrals is contemporary in style, as are the sleek furnishings.

This restraint means that the pretty view of Santos from the private balcony really stands out. Straight head you can see treetops around a quiet public square while glancing to the left will give you an uninterrupted view of the River Tagus. 

It must be said that the kitchen is a little rudimentary, but that needn't be a problem if you're planning to get acquainted with Lisbon's culinary scene. There's street food galore in the Time Out Market, only eight minutes' walk from the building, as well as plenty of restaurants along the riverfront. The National Museum of Ancient Art is only a thirteen-minute walk away, too.


Snappy Dresser

Located in hilly Lapa, one of Lisbon’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, you’ll be within walking distance of the Basílica da Estrela and Green Street here. With eye-catching artwork and sloping ceilings, this place has more character than the average city pad. And the private balcony, accessed via one of the bedrooms, is a peaceful spot to enjoy a morning coffee. The steep stairs mean this home might not be suitable for everyone, but if they’re not a deal-breaker, we think it’s a great choice for a group of friends wanting to explore the capital.

Heritage Harmony

Almost on the banks of the Tagus, this bright and sunny apartment puts you in the buzzing centre of Lisbon. In the Santos neighbourhood around you, you’ve got waterside walks, restaurants that have been serving Lisboan cuisine for centuries and trendy coffee shops galore. If you fancy ticking some famous Lisbon sights off your bucket list, the fado bars of Bairro Alto are a fifteen-minute walk, while the Santa Justa Lift and Convento Carmo are twenty minutes on foot. Or, perhaps hit the Time Out Market, ten minutes’ walk away, to sample some of Lisbon’s best restaurants from kiosks and stalls.

The apartment itself is a sleek haven of white, concrete and glass. Sliding doors let the sunlight stream in during the day and open up to a slender balcony. Out here you’ve got a fabulous view of the classic Lisbon houses towards the shimmering blue of the Tagus, and a bistro table to enjoy a drink or two. It’s pretty spacious for a studio and the sumptuous bed is tucked away from the kitchen.

This sunny home is in a quiet residential area of Lisbon. It's perfect for those who want to relax after spending the day exploring the city. Within walking distance are small groceries, cafes, and the tram, which will quickly take you into the centre of town. The beautiful Jardim da Estrela is close by too – a garden where you can picnic beneath the shade of the trees in the summer. We'd recommend paying a visit to the Praça das Flores where you can buy drinks and pastries. Though when the weather is good, you might prefer simply spending time sipping a glass of wine on the balcony. It's the crowning jewel of this apartment, perfect for both your morning coffee and an evening nightcap under the stars.

Located midway between leafy Estrela and trendy Alcântara, this apartment overlooks the 25 de Abril bridge and Tejo River. Inside, the pared-back design keeps your attention firmly on the sweeping views. Watch the water shimmer in the morning sunshine as you tuck into a traditional Portuguese breakfast at your dining nook. The open floor plan creates a sociable space, so you can chat to the chef of your group from the comfort of the L-shaped sofa as they cook up a storm in the kitchenette. The home’s final flourish is the high thread-count bedsheets – there’s nothing quite like snuggling up in premium linens at the end of an eventful day. It’s a twenty-minute bus or tram ride to downtown and the city’s attractions. But if you fancy staying local, you’ll find a number of cafes, breweries and artisanal bakeries all within walking distance.

Made up of two luxurious floors with distinct styles, this is a home for lovers of rustic antiquity and modern minimalism. While the lower level has period features (we love that the old potbelly stove is still in place in the living room), a balcony with views over the street below, and plenty of character, the top floor suite has a very different feel. Downstairs you'll find two of the bedrooms, along with a dining area, modern kitchen, and bathroom. But climb the stairs and you'll enter what feels a lot like a self-contained flat. Ideal if some of your party would prefer a bit more privacy, it's got its own lounge and TV, a sleek kitchenette, work nook, and bathroom. Lit with skylights and painted all white, it's a charming spot to relax in. From this quiet street, it's easy to explore the historic heart of Lisbon. You're just ten minutes away from the Príncipe Real and Santos districts, and your balcony has views across to São Bento Palace.

The Sky Parlour

This home is located in Casa Chafariz, a recently renovated historical landmark that is a prime example of Pombaline architecture. At first glance, the interior looks like it's been designed with Scandinavian minimalism in mind, but there are a couple of creative touches that add some warmth and personality — the host's own paintings and photography on the walls, for example, or the chic monochromatic marble on the kitchen surfaces. There's a rather lovely view of the rooftops of Chiado out the living room window too, which should give you some inspiration to head out and explore. In one direction, the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga can be reached in ten minutes on foot, while the lively neighbourhood of Bairro Alto sits a similar amount of time in the other direction.

The Marble Viscount

On a traditional street, with the tram running right outside, this apartment's clean lines and modern decor sit within a period building. In the Estrela neighbourhood, one of the most undiscovered parts of central Lisbon, it's just around the corner from the city's puppetry museum (Museu da Marioneta) and a fifteen-minute walk from the beautiful Estrela Garden. Inside, this studio home is smart and comfortable. White walls and wood floors are accented with shades of blue and yellow, and for a small space it's equipped with everything you could need. There's a comfy bed and a sofa, a kitchenette for whipping up light meals, and a dining table for two. There's even a dishwasher so you don't have to worry about the washing up. But step out through the tall French doors and you'll find a lovely balcony overlooking the building's communal pool. A table and chairs mean this is the place you'll no doubt be eating all your meals at home.

Board Games

Cafetiere

The streets surrounding this apartment are part of Principe Real – one of the trendiest neighbourhoods in Lisbon, where new cafes crop up almost every month alongside organic markets and original clothing boutiques. Thanks to the hilltop location, this split-level home has incredible views over the Tagus River and the city's varied architecture, and the best spot to take it all in is from the balcony. Just grab a bottle of wine (your host generously leaves one for you) and take your front-row seat to gorgeous sunsets over the rooftops. When you're in the mood to cook, the kitchen has everything you need – there's also a produce market held on Saturdays in the park nearby to stock up on fresh produce. Downstairs is relaxed and cosy, with pops of bright reds and a clean, contemporary living space that's an excellent place to hang out after a busy day. We think this apartment is a great match for a family or friend group that want a vibrant locale, excellent views and easy access to transport links.

Poppy Bloom

Between Estrela and the river in Lisbon, you'll find this home's location, the Lapa district. It's a peaceful residential area with some charming attractions, such as the Basilica da Estrela and the neoclassical Assembleia da República. Or head to the nearby Museu da Marioneta, a museum of Portuguese puppetry housed in the Convent of Bernardas. There are plenty of eateries to enjoy in the locale too.

Or head back to this stylish home and cook up some Piri Piri chicken. Then relax on the small balcony with a glass of wine. The living space, with its multiple windows, is bathed in light. We particularly love the main bedroom with its original shutters and French doors that open onto a Juliet balcony.


Lapa It Up

This one-bedroom apartment is ideal for a couple or solo traveller in Lisbon's Lapa neighbourhood. There's a dedicated desk for getting remote work or study done, and the kitchen is well-equipped for large meals or experimenting with local cuisine. Pets are welcome here for an additional fee, so it's great for long-term stays in the city. While parking outside will be tricky, public transport is close by and there is plenty to do within walking distance. Estrela's park and cathedral are a short walk away, and you'll find a few restaurants and shops for essentials nearby.

Peaceful Bliss

This apartment in the quiet neighbourhood of Estrela is ideal for a family or group of friends. You’ll find trendy restaurants in nearby Santos and the Park of Necessidades is a nice place to unwind with a picnic. Catch the bus to the bustling Praça do Comércio or head into Baixa for shops and the medieval Carmo Convent. The home itself is comfortable and is equipped with all the trappings for a fuss-free stay. There’s not much natural light, though, especially in the bedrooms, and space in the living area is tight for a group of six. 

The Artist's Repose

Only a few minutes from Lisbon's buzzing downtown lies Santos, one of the oldest neighbourhoods in the city. Close to all the must-see landmarks yet tucked away from the more tourist-heavy spots, it's no wonder this is a favourite area for locals and college students – plus, excellent public transport links make this a prime place for exploring. Enjoy walks along the riverfront, discover the city's old churches or browse the ancient art in the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga. Later on, head to the famous Pink Street for a night on the town – it's a hub of bars, restaurants and clubs.

Afterwards, make your way home to this cosy apartment and kick off your shoes. Situated in a restored building with a tiled-covered facade and oodles of Juliet balconies, it's quintessentially Portuguese on the outside. One step inside, however, and you'll find contemporary design in spades. 

Sunlight streams through the French windows, creating a bright and inviting space to relax, while aquamarine-coloured tiles in the kitchen and bathroom mimic the exterior. We can easily imagine sharing bottles of Vinho Verde around the dining table, reading a guidebook on the butterfly chair and cooking in the kitchen while fado music plays on the Marshall speaker – there's even a glass desk that's ideal for remote working. It's the perfect pad for a few friends or a couple to call home, with more than enough room to spread out and get comfortable. 

Turquoise Walls

Located in the historic Santos district, this charming apartment brims with typical Lisbon design, style and character. From the wooden beams and floorboards, to the warm lighting and soft furniture, it's the perfect place to relax. The biggest draw is, of course, the large decked terrace, complete with a cosy string lights, an outdoor sofa and dining table. We can think of nothing better than sharing local delicacies and bottles of wine out here, during the balmy summer evenings. 

Stroll over to the Elevador da Bica, instantly connecting you to the entire city, then wander around the trendy Bairro Alto district, filled with art houses, boutiques, cafes and bars. If you’re feeling peckish, you're in luck. The local neighbourhood of Madragoa is well renowned for its gorgeous architecture, traditional taverns and petiscos (tapas) restaurants. 

Starlight in Santos

Seeking a central location in Lisbon? Only a stone's throw from museums and seaside eateries, this pet-friendly apartment is a sightseer's dream base. With two balconies for street-watching, groups of four will take refuge from the hustle and bustle in this Arabic-inspired space. Blending practical and homely touches indoors, you'll find a bedroom desk and a record player inside. What's more, Santos train station is just minutes away, making work commutes or exploration to different pockets of the city easy.

The Ultimate Elegance

Housed in a traditional building, this smart home has city break written all over it. It's not large, but the excellent use of space means there's room to cook, socialise and eat together in this slick apartment. You'll love waking up to a hot espresso made on the coffee machine, ideal to sip at the dining table as you plan your day. Getting around the city is easy from here – a short walk of around ten minutes will bring you to the historic centre of Lisbon – pick between a walk through the winding streets, or a stroll along the Tagus River. For travels further afield, you'll find Santos Metro station just a seven-minute walk away. 


The Anchor

Directly in front of the Assembly of the Republic (that’s it outside the window), Crimson & Clover isn’t the kind of place you get to stay every day. It has wonderful high ceilings, and while it’s not enormous, the sheer amount of natural light makes it seem far bigger than it should. While you’re not in the throng of Baixa or Chiado, it’s still easy to get into those areas, and honestly, we can deal with fewer tourists and better restaurants.


Crimson & Clover

Shared Pool

Outdoor Pool

This historic apartment has many perks, including a private outdoor terrace and a small shared swimming pool – a rarity in central Lisbon. But it's the Santos location that's caught our eye. One of Lisbon's oldest and most happening neighbourhoods, this waterside district is the place to be. If we were being picky, some areas of the apartment lack natural light, and the pocket-sized bedroom is short on floor space – but for such an unbeatable location, we can let that slide.

Lisbon Serenade

Perfect for solo travellers and romantic getaways, this apartment has plenty of room for two. It's super stylish and little details like a desk and record player make all the difference. Sure, the galley kitchen is compact, but it has everything you need to rustle up dinner. There's even a balcony – although there's nowhere to sit, it's still a nice spot to savour a coffee and watch the neighbourhood wake up. Estrela is a great base, especially if you like to stroll along scenic streets and relax in quaint eateries. Make sure to swing by the Basilica da Estrela before hopping on a bus to the centre for further sightseeing.

Mocha Brushstrokes

With a soothing blue colour scheme that echoes the eye-catching azulejo tiles that adorn the front of this immaculately restored 18th-century building, this one-bedroom apartment offers a stylish sanctuary close to the heart of the city.

With high ceilings and large windows facing in every possible direction, the interior is well illuminated throughout the day, meaning that whether you're looking to curl up on the sofa with a good book or fire off a few emails at the desk, you won't struggle for energising natural light. Sleek leather and traditional Portuguese wicker chairs ensure plenty of comfortable seating options, in addition to the sofa (which can convert into an additional bed).

The calming minimalist decor of the bedroom will help you drift off in no time, while those eye-catching tiles make an appearance in the bathroom for the ultimate sense of place while you enjoy a soak in the tub.

Return home at the end of a day of discovery and dine at the spacious six-seater table, or head out to any one of the many top-notch restaurants within walking distance. For informal eats, the food stalls at Lisbon's Time Out Market serve up delectable dishes that won't break the bank. Alternatively, seek out delicious seafood at the former riverside warehouse, Kais.

Our top tip for Lisbon, take the trams up the hills and walk down. Handily, the iconic 28 tram route passes close by to the apartment and can have you gazing up at the imposing Arco da Rua Augusta and exploring the winding backstreets and alleyways of Alfama in under twenty minutes.

Closer to home, visit the fascinating Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga, which has an outstanding collection of art from all over Portugal and Europe. Finally, for a unique viewpoint, book yourself onto a boat trip and take in the city skyline from the River Tagus.

Azulejos de Santos

Here, you'll enjoy a waterside spot in Lisbon, surrounded by restaurants and museums. This stylish apartment boasts lots of room for four to work and unwind. Business travellers will find a bedroom desk at hand, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace if you need more room. Have some downtime? The vinyl record player is a nice bonus, as are the Juliet balconies on the windows. The lack of air conditioning won't suit everyone, but underfloor heating promises cosiness for the cooler months. Did we mention it's pet-friendly, too? You're well-connected with public transport here, and this home offers a free parking space, too.

Artful Serenity

This authentic azulejo-tiled building has been thoughtfully restored to create a contemporary oasis for you and your loved ones. Located in the vibrant Santos neighbourhood, this apartment offers an idyllic base for those looking to soak up the architectural delights and culinary highlights of the city.

With a bold blue colour scheme that echoes the decorative tiles that adorn the façade of your 18th-century building and a host of natural and design-focused furnishings, this apartment offers a stylish sanctuary to return home to after a day perusing the modern works at The National Museum of Contemporary Art and the art-gallery-cum-bookstore Zé dos Bois. Culturally satiated, return home for sundowners in the wicker armchairs, reclining under the ambient lamps to plan the night’s itinerary. There’s a sleek six-seater table should you want to dine in, or head out to any one of the many eclectic restaurants within walking distance. For informal eats, Lisbon's Time Out Market hosts local vendors serving up street food delicacies. Alternatively, seek out modernist seafood dishes down at the industrial riverside warehouse. 

Santos Azul

Surrounded by restaurants and cafes, this home puts you right in the beating heart of Lisbon. Start your days off with a quick bite at the dining table – the generous kitchen gives you more than enough space to cobble something tasty together – before heading out to explore the vibrant city on your doorstep.

Walk to the Rua Augusta Arch to snap a picture and carry on, from there, to the Lisbon Cathedral. Stop off for coffee and pastel de nata before continuing your grand tour of Lisbon – with accessible public transport, the city is yours to scour. 

Come home with a bag full of the iconic custard pastries to enjoy as you sit back on the sofa with your feet up. With all of the wood and natural elements in this home, you'll feel yourself unwind in no time.

Casa de Lótus

Wandering through the streets of Santos provides the perfect opportunity to admire Lisbon’s beautiful 18th-century mansions. And sitting within a sky-blue building, this apartment brings a contemporary touch to the rich heritage of its location. 

From the calming palette of colours to the open-plan design and welcoming ambience, this is a wonderful place to relax and share quality time together. So whether you’re here with an action-packed itinerary or for a spontaneous city stay, there’s everything you could need to settle in and feel at home.

And with easy access to public transport, you’ll find the historical sights and landmarks of the city are all within reach. 

For those evenings when you want to experience total rest and relaxation, this apartment provides the perfect setting to sit back and savour traditional Portuguese aperitivos.

Casa Angelo

This comfortable minimalist space in central Lisbon is ideally situated to access the best of the city. When you're not landmark-hopping or sipping something chilled on a sun-drenched square, kick back at home among beautiful cornicing, marble tiling and organic wood accents.

The chic apartment is located in Casa Chafariz, a recently renovated landmark building that celebrates Pombaline architecture. Glide past original features in the communal entryway to reach your private nook – the architects have refurbished the space in a way that complements its historic state.

And if the aesthetics weren't enough, the location will likely tempt you. This home is just a ten-minute walk from the popular Time Out Market, which hosts all of Lisbon's best-loved eateries under one roof. Indulge in some seafood and sangria before winding your way down to the shoreline. The city's main nightlife district, Bairro Alto, is also just ten minutes away – here you'll find a network of hidden bars that come alive at night under rainbow-coloured bunting.

The Marble Earl

This charmingly restored 18th-century building is decorated in authentic azulejo tiles and is home to a sumptuously modern interior. Unwinding here after a day soaking up the architectural delights and culinary highlights of the city will feel truly idyllic.

Style, light and history join forces to create this stunning home. With a crisp white colour palette, tall ceilings and walls of windows, the interior stays bright and airy throughout the day, meaning that whether you're looking to stretch out on the sofa with your holiday read or send off a few emails at the elegant workspace, you’ll be refreshingly illuminated throughout. The neutral minimalist designs carry through to the bedrooms, allowing you to drift off into peaceful slumbers, whilst those azul blue tiles from outside are mirrored in the bathroom to create a calming environment for you to soak in.

We love how well positioned this apartment is – take yourself on an architectural walking tour of the city’s most famous buildings – from Sé de Lisboa and São Roque Church to the gravity-defying Pavilion of Portugal, then finish off at the National Pantheon. After a day on your feet, treat yourself to a culinary array of Portuguese potiscos. 

Azulejos Tiles for Miles

Hot Tub

This riverside apartment locates on the waterfront of Lisbon's River Tragus, and within walking distance of its city centre, alongside an array of shops and eateries. The apartment's interiors reflect Lisbon's easy-going and laid-back aesthetic and offer a stylish space to base yourselves between exploring the city. Centred around comfort and functionality, the open-plan living area and kitchen provide plenty of room for the group to come together in a sociable setting. While you're welcome to bring a furry friend on your stay here, we think, given the apartment's compact size, it's likely to be comfortable if you leave them at home.

Found in the bustling Lapa district, this apartment pulls off bohemian chic with textured walls, natural fibres and a pleasant colour palette. Explore the food scene by visiting local restaurants or take advantage of the nearby tram stop, Alcantara-Terra, to take you across Lisbon to see some of the most iconic historical landmarks. This close to the water, take a walk along the Tagus, stopping off at Belém Tower for panoramic views. With enough room for four and a cosy terrace from where to worship the sun, this is ideal for two couples or a small family exploring this side of Portugal.

The Golden Glimmer

Parking On Street

A two-minute jaunt from the family-favourite Estrela Garden, this seventh-floor apartment offers an ideal base for packed itineraries and business trips. Remote workers are promised practicality with the bedroom desk, and while the views aren't breathtaking, the choice of two balconies await your galão breaks. It's not the most charming home – the pipework is old and you're likely to hear your neighbours – but it's a fuss-free option. Fancy heading downtown? It's a bit of a trek on foot, but excellent public transport links sit on your doorstep. There's also the option for on-street parking if you'd rather drive.
